And by his joy therein he plainly shows,
He thanks the man that pay’d those debts he owes:
But these She-Blacks in justice thought it fit,
That he which got the child, likewise keep it:

By which good Law unto each man ’tis known,
That he doth keep no other child but’s own.

Some what-d’ye-lacks would Heirs to Lords appear;
