Some take his measure by the rule, some by

The Jacobs-staff take his profundity,

And some his altitude; but some do swear

Young Tom’s not like the Old: But, Tom, ne’re fear

The critical geometricians line,

If thou as loud as e’re thou did ring’st nine.

Tom did no sooner peep from under-ground,

But straight Saint Maries tenor lost his sound.

O how this may-poles heart did swell

With full main sides of joy, when that crackt bell
