ashes streight Besides I finde this Tree hath neuer bin Like other fruit trees wall'd or hedged in But in the high way standing many a yeere It neuer yet was rob'd as I cou●d heare The reason is apparent to our eies That what it beares are dead commodities And yet sometimes such grace to it is giuen The dying fruit is well prepar'd for heauen And many times a man may gather thence Remorse deuotion and true penitence And from that Tree I thinke more soules ascend To that Celestiall ioy which ne're shall end I say more soules from thence to heau'n doe come Than from all Churchyards throughout christendome The reason is the bodies all are dead And all the soules to ioy or woe are fled Perhaps a weeke a day or two or three Before they in the Churchyards buried bee But at this Tree in twinckling of an eye The soule and body part immediatly There death the fatall parting blow doth strike And in Churchyards is seldome seene the like Besides they are assisted with the almes Of peoples charitable Praiers and Psalmes Which are the wings that lift the hou'ring spirit By faith through grace true glory to inherit Concerning this dead fruit I noted it In stead of paste it 's put into a pit And laid vp carefully in any place Yet worme-eaten it growes in little space My vnderstanding can by no meanes frame To giue this Tyburne fruit a fitter name Than Medlers for I finde that great and small To my capacitie are Medlers all Some say they are Choak'd peares and some againe Doe call them Hartie Choakes but 't is most plaine It is a kinde of Medler it doth beare Or else I thinke it neuer would come there Moreouer where it growes I finde it true It often turnes the Herbe of Grace to Rue Amongst all Pot-herbes growing on the ground Tyme is the least respected I haue found And most abus'd and therefore one shall see No branch or bud of it grow neere this Tree For 't is occasion of mans greatest crime To turne the Vse into Abuse of Time When Passions are let loose without a bridle Then pretious Time is turn'd to Loue and Idle And that 's the chiefest reason I can show Why fruit so often doth on Tyburne grow There are inferiour Gallowses which beare According to the season twice a yeare And there 's a kinde of watrish Tree at Wapping Wheras Sea-theeues or Pirates are catch'd napping But Tyburne doth deserue before them all The title and addition capitall Of Arch or great Grand Gallowse of our Land Whilst all the rest like ragged Laqueyes stand It hath like Luna ' full and change and quarters It like a Merchant monthly trucks and barters But all the other Gallowses are fit Like Chapmen or poore Pedlers vnto it Thus Iayles and Iaylors being here explain'd How both are good and for good vse ordain'd All sorts of Hanging which I could surmise I likewise haue describ'd before your eyes And further hauing shew'd what Tyburne is With many more inferiour Gallowsis My pen from paper with this Praier doth part God blesse all people from their sinnes desart FINIS Reader yo 〈…〉 note that thi 〈…〉 tleman did 〈…〉 mee from FARNE 〈…〉 barrell of 〈◊〉 and Corm 〈◊〉 eggs by th 〈…〉 ing of wh 〈◊〉 haue attain 〈…〉 the vnderstand 〈◊〉 of many 〈◊〉 which our 〈◊〉 an 〈…〉 doe speake 〈◊〉 about LON 〈…〉 〈…〉 Fairn Iland 〈…〉 7. mile the Holy into the sea Holy Iland seuen miles Barwicke 〈…〉 Fairne all of Sea-fowle in such a 〈◊〉 nce as yo 〈…〉 step but Egges or 〈◊〉 They misse lay on Saint 〈◊〉 es day and might after 〈…〉 as there is 〈◊〉 to be seene 〈◊〉 taple Ilands 〈◊〉 to the 〈◊〉 and stand 〈◊〉 mile from it 〈…〉 he sea where 〈◊〉 wle vpon the 〈…〉 are so thicke 〈◊〉 vpon the 〈◊〉 nd vpon the 〈◊〉 with such 〈◊〉 sitie build 〈◊〉 ests as the 〈◊〉 man cannot 〈◊〉 hat egge in 〈◊〉 place againe 〈…〉 once taken 〈…〉 abide in the 〈◊〉 place Vpon 〈◊〉 flight the sea 〈◊〉 couered for 〈…〉 a mile and 〈◊〉 eauens aboue 〈◊〉 obscured for present b There is but one house there all the dwellers else being Sea-sowle who will her know offences nor punishments Ier. 22.2 Chap. 32.
