Fab. CIII. Mercury.
Jupiter
orderd Mercury to prepare
A lying Potion, for all Tradesmens use;
He pounded the Ingredients in a Mortar,
Observing punctually measure and weight,
And brought it to his Patients when made up,
All of them, but the Taylor, took the Dose,
Yet there remaind much Liquor in the Cup,
All which the Taylor greedily drank off.

All which the Taylor greedily drank off.
The Moral.
Ever since that, All Tradesmen have been Lyars,But Taylors more Notorious than the rest.
