So let your channels flow with single tiff,

For John, I hope, is crown’d: Take off your whiff,

Ye men of rosemary[114], and drink up all,

Remembring ’tis a butlers funeral:

Had he been master of good double beer,

My life for his, John Dawson had been here.

ON
GREAT TOM OF CHRIST-CHURCH.

Be dumb, ye infant-chimes, thump not your mettle,

That ne’re out-ring a tinker and his kettle;
