Thou hast made me now a man, never before
This happy Child, did I get any thing.
This Oracle of comfort, ha's so pleas'd me,
That when I am in Heaven, I shall desire
To see what this Child does, and praise my Maker.
I thanke ye all. To you my good Lord Maior,
And you good Brethren, I am much beholding:
I have receiv'd much Honour by your presence,
And ye shall find me thankfull. Lead the way Lords,
Ye must all see the Queene, and she must thanke ye,
She will be sicke els. This day, no man thinke
'Has businesse at his house; for all shall stay:
This Little-One shall make it Holy-day.

THE EPILOGUE.

Exeunt.

Tis ten to one, this Play can never please
All that are heere: Some come to take their ease,
And sleepe an Act or two; but those we feare
Whave frighted with our Tumpets: so 'tis cleare,
They'I say tis naught. Others to heare the City
Abus' d extreamly, and to cry that's witty,
Which wee have not done neither; that I feare
All the expected good w'are like to heare.
For this Play at this time, is onely in
The mercifull construction of good women,
For such a one we shew'd'em: If they smile,
And
say twill doe; I know within a while,
All the best men are ours; for 'tis ill hap,
If they bold, when their Ladies bid 'em clap.
