Sir! sighting now thy Selfe, and Pallace Faire,

I find a novelty, and that most rare,

The time though cold and stormy, sharper Sun,

And far to Summer, scarce the Spring begun;

Yet with good lucke, in Februar, Saturnes prey

Have I not sought, and found out Fruitfull May,

Flank’d with the Marine Coast, prospective stands,

Right opposite to the Orcade Iles and Lands:

Where I for floures, ingorg’d strong grapes of Spaine,

And liquor’d French, both Red and white amaine:
