002.H07.001  S%5r%6, though I thank God for it, I doe hate
002.H07.002  Perfectlie all this towne: yet there is one state
002.H07.003  In all ill things soe excellently best
002.H07.004  That hate towards them breed, pitty to the rest.
002.H07.005  Though %1Poetrie%2 indeed be such A synne
002.H07.006  As I think>>,<< might bringe %1Dearth%2, & Spanyards, in
002.H07.007  Though like the Pestilence, or old fashion'd Loues[sic]
002.H07.008  It rydes killingely, Catcheth men, and removes[sic]
002.H07.009  Never till it be starv'd out, yet their state
002.H07.010  Is poore disarm'd like Papists, not worth hate:
002.H07.011  Or like a wretch (w%5ch%6 at a Barr Iudgd dead,
002.H07.012  Yet prompts him w%5ch%6 stands next & cold not read,
002.H07.013  And saves his life) gives Ideot Acto%5rs%6 means,

002.H07.017  One wold move Loue by rythmes, but witchcraft \(charmes

002.H07.021  And they who wryte to Lords; rewards to gett
002.H07.022  Are they not like boyes singing at Dores for meat?
002.H07.023  And they who wryte, because all wryte have styll
002.H07.024  A sence fore-wrytinge, & for[see#notes] wrytinge ill.
002.H07.025  But he is worse, who Beggerly doth Chawe

002.H07.027  Rawly disgested, Doth these things out-spewe
002.H07.028  As his owne things, & they are his owne, 'tis true:
002.H07.029  For if one eat my meat though it be knowne
002.H07.030  The meat was myne, th'Excrament 's[sic] his owne.
002.H07.031  But they do me no harme, Nor they w%5ch%6 vse
