OVERTON Newly Printed and newly come forth with his HOLINESSE Priviledge to prevent false Copies LONDON Printed for R. Overton 1642. The Author to his Muse MY Muse scarce hatch'd erects her spiring eye And through the aire sees flocks of Muses fly And wanting Wings shee skipt into this paper And after flyes puft up with windy vaper But hasty Muse take this advice I pray In this thy flight keep in the Middle way Fly not too high for feare of scorching beames Nor yet too low for feare of vvatery streams Thy vvings are paper if thou dost aspire Sols fiery throne he 'll set thy wings on fire To trident Neptune if thou dost descend He 'l vvet thy vvings and bring thee to thy end Thus to the Meane I leave thee let none be Offended at thy flight nor yet at me R.

Peace Sir what now the Rabble rout ye knave T is Patience that brings Crosses to the grave Cheap-side with patience long hath borne the Crosse But now't must be disburthen'd of that drosse Pa. What hath the Crosse committed Mr News That you and others should it thus abuse What harme doth it do'st not adorn the City If 't be accus'd of Treason mores the pity Ne.
