A mastif whelp with other ruff-Island-lik Currs fetcht from amongst the Antipedes | ||
Satire 12.
[Pratus; thou art a Busie-bodie growne]
Pratus; thou art a Busie-bodie growneIoo talkatiue 'Pon matters not thy owne
What though the Spanyard, Pope, and Divell plotts?
Let em Pratus: they doe not deale with Sotts
The States are wise, they cann see fire in smother
It is not sects cann part the tone from tother
They'l hold in peace: t'is not theire publick foe
Shall take t'hadvantadge of a partinge blowe
And therefore man, of thy owne busnes prate
They'le hold theire freind which helpes them hold theire state.
Goe busie-body'd foolish-pratinge mome
Busie thy bodie, on thy wife at home:
Gett her with child: it's hightime shee had one
Ioynd thirtye yeares? it is a shame thast none
Let states alone: thou needst' not them to teache
They arc to wise to make theyre foes a breache
