|
A burnt ship. |
|
Out of a fired ship, which, by no way |
But drowning, could be rescued from the flame, |
Some men leap'd forth, and ever as they came |
Neere the foes ships, did by their shot decay; |
So all were lost, which in the ship were found, |
They in the sea being burnt, they in the burnt ship drown'd. |
|
Fall of a wall. |
|
Under an undermin'd, and shot-bruis'd wall |
A too-bold Captaine perish'd by the fall, |
Whose brave misfortune, happiest men envi'd, |
That had a towne for tombe, his bones to hide. |
|
A lame begger. |
|
I am unable, yonder begger cries, |
To stand, or moue; if he say true, hee lies. |
|
A selfe accuser. |
|
Your mistris, that you follow whores, still taxeth you: |
'Tis strange that she should thus confesse it, though'it be true.
