With drinking healths, and shaking by the hand,

As he had travail'd to some new-found land.

Well, taking horse, with very much a doe,

London he leaveth for a day or two:

And as he rideth meets upon the way

Such (as what haste soever) bid men stay;

Sirrah (sayes one) stand, and your purse deliver;

I am a taker, you must be a giver.

Unto a wood hard by they hale him in,

And rifle him unto the very skin.
