These watery Villagers, with thousands more,

Do pass and repass near the Verdant Shore.

Kinds of Shell-fish.

The luscious Lobster, with the Crabfish raw,

The brinish Oyster, Muscle, Periwigge,

And Tortoise sought for by the Indian Sqaw,

Which to the Flats dance many a Winters Jigge,

To dive for Cocles, and to dig for Clams,

Whereby her lazie Husbands guts she crams.

The Seal.
