No More Learning

Thinking by Bribes he could not Ruin shun : He took a Collier's Coat to Sea to go ;
Was ever Chancellour arrayed so !
But like to like, he'd needs anticipate,
Devil Incarnate, Collier of State.
He dealt in Deeds of Darkness, black as Night. Such a Black Habit needs must fit him right. Brave Sight to see him in a Collier's Skin ;
Come, Pence a Piece, my Masters enter in.
My Lord Mayor swooned, and was stricken dumb, To see his metamorphos'd Lordship come.
A Countryman he flouted once, I hear,
Ask'd what he had for swearing, 'Twas too dear, You Bumpkin in the Leather Jacket there ;
To whom the Hobnail quickly did reply,
Had'st thou no more for lying, than poor I
Have here for swearing, thou might'st quickly wear A Leather one, instead of Plush Thread-bare.
Now had he seen my Lord in Colliers Buff, Bumpkin had past for Prophet sure enough.
The Mobile and Rout with Clubs and Staves, Swore that his Carcass ne'er should lye in Graves. The'y eat him up alive within an Hour,
Their Teeth should tear his Flesh, and him devour ; Limb him they would, as Boys on Shrovetide do,
Some cryed, /
And I am for his Sowse ; his Ears, another ;
Oh, cries a third, I am for his Buttocks brave,
Nine Pound of Stakes from them I mean to have ;
I know the Rogue is fleshy, says a fourth ;
For Sweet-breads, Lungs, and Heart they're nothing worth ; Yes, quoth another, but not good to eat,
A Heart of Steel will ne'er prove tender Meat.
But we must them dispose another Way,
A good Rich Lawyer will a round Sum pay, For such a Set of loud and bellowing Lungs, Enough to serve a Hundred Stentors Tongues. We'll sell his Heart to th' Pope to make a Show, A Relique on't, and he'll get Money too.
But whilst they were dividing them in Thought, The Lord Mayor order'd Soldiers to be brought, Who rescued him from out the Rabbles Power. And straight away they took him to the Tower, With much ado he there was brought at last,
for
a Wing and Arm
; for what are you ?
am
I am for his Head, says one ; for his Brains, says t'other,
To think on all his wicked Actions past.
