Lenvoy, or Postscript.

From wronging of my King, from State reviling,
From Libels writing or in Print compiling:
From troubling of my coxcombe, braines, or mazzard,
From putting my estate or eares in hazzard:
From seeking things that are beyond my reach;
From dreaming I could all the Clergie teach;
From Pride, Vain-glory, and Hypocrisie,
From striving to obtaine a Pillory,
And from deserving of the triple Tree,
Good Lord of Heaven and Earth deliver mee.
