A True and Faithful INVENTORY of the Goods belonging to Dr. Sw---T,
Vicar of Lara Cor; upon lending his House to the Bishop of ------ till his own was built.
An Oaken broken Elbow Chair;A Cawdle Cup without an Ear;
A batter'd, shatter'd Ash Bedstead;
A Box of Deal, without a Lid,
A Pair of Tongs, but out of joint;
A Back-sword Poker without Point;
A Pot that's crack'd across, around
With an old knotted Garter bound;
An Iron Lock without a Key;
A Wig, with hanging, quite grown grey;
A Curtain worn to half a Stripe;
A Pair of Bellows without Pipe;
A Dish, which might good Meat afford once;
An Ovid, and an old Concordance;
A Bottle-bottom, Wooden Platter,
One is for Meal, and one for Water;
There likewise is a Copper Skillet,
Which runs as fast out as you fill it;
A Candlestick, Snuff dish, and Save-all.
And thus his Houshold Goods you have all.
These to your Lordship, as a Friend,
Till you have built, I freely lend:
They'll serve your Lordship for a Shift,
Why not as well as Doctor Sw---t?
FINIS.
