Epilogue for the Court.

Sir:

That th'abusing of your eare's a crime,
Above th'excuse any six lines in Rhime
Can make, the Poet knowes: I am but sent
T'intreat hee may not be a President,
For hee does thinke that in this place there bee
Many have done't as much and more than hee;
But here's, hee sayes, the difference of the Fates,
Hee begs a Pardon after't, they Estates.
FINIS.
