Epigram 38.

FOr Gods loue tell what gallant Gull is that,
With the great Feather, and the Beauer Hat?
O now I know, his name is Mounsieur Shift,
Great Cosin german to Sir Cutbert Theft,
All his reuenues still he beares ab out him,
Whorehouse, nor Ordinaries neuer are without him.
False Dice, sharp Knife, and nimble nimming fingers,
Are his sworne Subiects, and his tribute bringers.
Thus doth he swagger, sharke, steale, filtch, and quarrell,
Vntill the hangmans wardrop keepes his parreli.
