This is another of the satires against the Welsh, which were so frequent in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. It was written in the latter part of the seventeenth century, as the first edition shows.
"The Welch Traveller; or the Unfortunate Welchman;
"If any Gentleman do want a Man,
As I doubt not but some do now and than,
I have a Welchman though but meanly clad—
Will make him merry be he nere so sad:
If that you read, read it quite ore I pray,
And you'l not think your penny cast away.
"By Humphry Crouch.
