Poems consisting of Epistles and Epigrams, Satyrs, Epitaphs and Elogies, Songs and Sonnets With variety of other drolling Verses upon several Subjects. Composed by no body must know whom, and are to be had every body knows where, and for somebody knows what [by John Eliot] |
To one that entreated the Author to write some Verses
to a Book that he had going to the Press.

To one that entreated the Author to write some Verses to a Book that he had going to the Press.
I was intreated by a scambling KnightSomething in praise of his new book to write,
I that am ready at each Suiters whistle
As others did, provided an Epistle,
But 'cause I did not prayse his work enough,
He left it out, which I took much in snuff;
But let it pass it hath given me a schoolling,
I'l henceforth sooth up woodcocks in their fooling.
