Follies Anatomie | ||
Ad Lectores.
To stād on Terms twere vain. By hook & crookOne Terme I was defrauded of a Booke.
Now Readers your assistance I must craue,
To play at Noddy; to turne vp a knaue.
My foe at Tick-Tack playes exceeding well:
For Bearing (Sirs) beleeue't, he bears the Bell.
He's of a blood-hounds kinde, because his Nose
Vtters each new made sent; be't uerse, or prose.
Could ye attache this Felon, in's disgrace
I would not bate an inch (not Boltons ace)
To baite, deride, nay ride this silly Asse,
I would take paines; he should not scot-free passe.
All filching knaues (be't spoken as a Trope)
Will once be plaide, displayed by a Rope:
Once caught (that now in clanks & corners lurks)
Lest he delude some kinde affecting Scholler,
Pray, haue him twiched in a Hempen Coller:
Once burntith' hand, he will example giue,
To such Times turne-coats as by filching liue.
