'Tis true I'll prove it clear:

Tom owes ten pounds, for which he pays

in Limbo half a year.


ON JACK STRAW'S CASTLE, HAMPSTEAD HEATH, BEING REPAIRED.

With best of food—of beer and wines,

Here may you pass a merry day;

So shall "mine host," while Phoebus shines,

Instead of straw, make good his hay.
