Epilogue, Captain.


Epilogue, Captain.

Gentlemen,

I am no Epilogue, I come to pray
You'd tell me your opinion of the Play,
Is the Plot current? may we trust the wit
Without a Say-Master to autorise it?
Are the lines Sterling? do they hold conceit?
And every peece with your allowance, weight?
That when you come abroad, you'l not report
You are sorry to have given white money for't?
So, so, I know your meaning, now pray tell
How did the action please ye, was it well?
How did King Stephen do, and tother Prince?
Enough, enough, I apprehend, and since
I am at questions w'ee, tell me faith
How do you like the Captain? ha? he saith,
I'l tell you, y'are my friends, none here, he knows,
I mean you o'the Gentry, t'whom he ows
No money, will enter a false action,
And let the rest look too't, if there be one,
Among his City creditors, that dares,
He hath vow'd to press, and send him to the Wars.
FINIS.
