The wit we lost in town, we find in you.

Our poets their fled parts may draw from hence,

And fill their windy heads with sober sense

When London votes[362] with Southwark's disagree,

Here may they find their long lost loyalty.

Here busy senates, to the old cause inclined,

May snuff the votes their fellows left behind;

Your country neighbours, when their grain grows dear,

May come, and find their last provision here;

Whereas we cannot much lament our loss,
