A Satyr upon the Town and Times. [b]
Heaven knows for what great crying sin of mine,
(But sure it must be for some heynous sin)
The fates did so severe a Curse assign.
'Thank fate I had no Action to be tried
No suit at Court to Halifax, or Hide:
I carried no Abhorrence, or Adress

The fates ordain'd that I should thither go.
Nothing henceforth shall ever bring me there
But a Pursuivant or a Messenger:
