If thou dost love, my Kindness shall incite thee,
To bind our Loves up in a holy Band.

Salisbury, at the King's-Arms; seemingly to give the Reason why Miles seem shorter in one Place than another.
When I set out from London, I tramp'd on the Way,
I was brisk, and my Courage and Heart was full gay;
So I fancy'd my Journey was nothing but Play,
But as I went forward, a Day or two longer,
The Miles seem'd more lengthen'd as I grew less stronger,
And I wish'd in this Case to grow younger and younger.
