Barnabees ●OURNALL , Under the Names of MIRTILUS & FAUSTULUS shadowed : for the Travellers Solace lately published , to most apt numbers reduced , and to the old Tune of BARNABE commonly chanted .

By Corymboeus .

The oyle of malt and juyce of spritely nectar Have made my Muse more valiant than Hector .
●OYALL PHEANDER to his ROYALL ALEXANDER . THe title , Noble friend , of ALEXANDER . Were it nought else , implyes a great Commander . And so you shall be still of me & mine , With Barnabe couch'd in a reeling ryme : Nor wonder , friend , if his dimensions reele , Whose head makes such Jambicks with his heele .
Vpon this Worke. THis three dayes taske was once imposed me , In the first Spring of my minoritie ; No edge of Razer then had toucht my chin , Nor downy shade approach'd my supple Skin ; I knew not th' postures of this Indian vapor , Nor made my Sacrifice unto my Taper ; I 'd ne're seene any Curtaine nor partition , Which beget worke for Surgeon and Physician ; I was a Novice in the Schoole of Sin , Nor yet did taste , what others dived in . Excuse this Subject then , if 't doe not fit The nicenesse of this Age for weight and wit . Birds flicker first before they learne to fly , And trust me on my credit so did I. " Great Tasks when they 'r to shorter times confin'd , " Will force a Worke mount lower than the mind .
Ad Viatorem . OPpida dum peragras , peragran● do Poemata spectes , Spectando titubes , Barnabe , nome● habes .
To the Traveller . TOwnes while thou walk'st , and seest this poetrie , And seeing stumblest , thou art Barnabe .
Ad Translatorem . PEssimus est Cerdo , qui transtulit ordine calvo , Non res sed voces percutiendo leves . Ast hic Translator corii peramabilis Actor , Quirythmo pollens fit ratione satur .
To the Translator . THat paltry Patcher is a bald Translater Whose aule bores at the Words but not the matter : But this TRANSLATOR makes good use of lether By stitching ryme and reason both together .
Index Operis . MUlciber , Uva , Venus , redolens ampulla , Silenus , Effigiem titulis explicuere suis.

At such time as we sojourn'd in this poor Village , it chanced that a certaine Pinner , and one of the choicest of all his Flocke , being choaked with pin-dust , dyed : To whose Memory wee find this Epitaph indorsed .

— ò cruell Death To rob this man of breath , Who whil'st he liv'd in scraping of a pin . Made better dust , than thou hast made of him . Aberford , whose beginning Came from buying drink with pinning ; Poor they are and very needy , Yet of liquor too too greedy ; Have they never so much plenty , Belly makes their purses empty .

Turning thence , none could me hinder To salute the Wakefield Pinder ; Who indeed 's the worlds glory , With his Cumrades never sory , This the cause was , lest you misse it , Georgies Club I meant to visit . Streight at Wakefeeld was I seene a , Where I sought for George a Greene a , But I could find no such creature , On a signe I saw his feature : Where the strength of ale so stirr'd me , I grew stouter farre than Geordie . ●hence to Bradford , my tongue blisters ●t the Family of Sisters , They love , are lov'd to no Eye-show , They increase and multiply too , ●urnis●'d with their spritely weapons 〈◊〉 flesh feeles Clarks are no Capons .

Thence to Giggleswick most sterill , Hemm'd with rocks and shelves of perill ; Neare to th' way as Traveller goeth , A fresh e e Neare th' bottom of this Hill , close by the way A fresh Spring Ebs and Flowes all houres oth'day . Spring both Ebbes and Floweth , Neither know the Learnd'st that travell What procures it , Salt or Gravell . Thence to Clapham , drawing nyer He that was the common Cryer , ☞ To a breakefast of one Herring Did invite me first appearing . Herring he , I drinke bestowed , Pledges of the love we owed . Thence to Ingleton , where I dwelled Till I brake a Blacksmiths palled , Which done , women rush'd in on me , Stones like haile showr'd down upon me , Whence amated , fearing harming , Leave I tooke , but gave no warning . The poore mans box is in the Temple set , Temple on Hill , th' Hill is by waters bet . Thence to Lonesdale , where I viewed An Hall which like a Taverne shewed ; Neate Gates , white Walls , nought was sparing ▪ Pots brim-full , no thought of caring : They eat , drink , laugh , are still mirth-making , Nought they see that 's worth care taking . ●hence to Cowbrow , truth I 'le tell ye , ●ine hostesse had a supple bellie , ●odie plumpe , and count'nance cheerfull , ●eeling pace ( a welcome fearfull ) ●ike a drunken Hag she stumbled , ●ill she on her buttocks tumbled . ●hence to Natland , being come thither , ●e who Yorks Contempts did gather Gave me harbour , light as fether We both drunke and eat together , Till halfe-typsy , as it chanced , We about the Maypole danced . Thence to Kirkland , thence to Kendall , I did that which men call Spendall , Night and day with Sociats many Drunk I ale both thick and clammy . " Shroud thy head , Boy , stretch thy hand too , " Hand h'as done , head cannot stand to . Leaving these , to Staveley came I , Where now all night drinking am I , Alwayes frolick , free from yellows , With a Consort of good fellows , Where I 'le stay and end my journay , Till Brave Barnabe returne-a .

Ore-flowing Cups whom have they not made learn'd ?
Barnabees Iournall , The Second Part. MIRTIL. FAUSTULUS ! happily returned ; Tell me , pray thee , where th'st joarned ; What Townes , villages th' ast viewed , What Seats , Sites or States were shewed ; Sure thou know'st the North's uncivill , Small good comes thence , but much evill . FAUSTUL . WHat I was once , same I am now , Haire , conditions , garments same too , Yea there 's no man justly doubteth , These the same shooes I went out with ; And for combe I ne're us'd any , Lest I lost some of my Meney . But attend me , and partake it , What I loved , what I hated , g g England amongst all Nations , is most-full Of hills , wells , bridges , Churches , women , wooll . Bridges , fountaines , mountaines , valleis , Cauls , cells , hillocks , high-wayes , shallows , Paths , towns , villages and trenches , Chast-choice-chary-merry wenches . Truth I 'le tell thee , nothing surer , Richer am I not , nor poorer , Gladder , madder nor more pleasing , Blither , brisker , more in season , Better , worser , thinner , thicker , Neither healthfuller nor sicker . For the world I so farre prize it , But for Liquor I 'd despise it , Thousand deaths I 'd rather dye too Than hold Ale mine Enemy too : " Sober , Lamb-like doe I wander , " Drunk , I 'm stout as Alexander . When my head feeles his Maeander , I am stronger than Lysander ; th' Ile of Ree I little feare it Without wound to winne and weare it ; But lest tedious I expresse me , To my Progresse I 'le addresse me . First place where I first was knowne-a , Was brave Iohn a Gants h h An ancient Arch doth threaten a decline , And so must strongest Piles give way to time . old Towne-a , A Seat ▪ antiently renowned , But with store of Beggars drowned : For a Iaylor ripe and mellow , The world h' as not such a fellow . Thence to Ashton , good as may be Was the wine , brave Knight , bright Ladie , All I saw was comely specious , Seemly gratious , nea●ly precious ; My Muse with Bacchus so long traded , When I walk't , my legs denaid it . Thence to Garestang , pray you harke it , Ent'ring there a great Beast-market , As I jogged on the street-a 'T was my fortune for to meet-a A young Heyfer , who before her Tooke me up and threw me o're her . Thence to Preston , I was led-a , To brave Banisters to bed-a , As two borne and bred together We were presently sworne brether ; Seven dayes were me there assigned , Oft I supt , but never dined . Thence to Euxston , where mine Hostesse Feeles as soft as any tost is , Jucy , lusty , count'nance toothsome , Braided haire , but breath most loathsome ; Her I left with locks of amber , Phyllis light me to my chamber . Thence to Wiggin about Supper , To an Hostesse , none more slutter , Buxome was she yet to see to , She 'd be drunk for companie too ; Wit this Beldam soon did scater , And in Bed distill'd her water . Thence to Newton in the Willows , Where being boulstred up with pillows , I at Cards plaid with a girle * * Fresh was my Rose , till by a Northwind tost , She sap , sent , verdure , and her vigour lost . Rose by name , a dainty pearle , At Cent-foot I often moved Her to love me whom I loved . Thence to Warrington , banks or'eflowed , Travellers to th' Towne were rowed , Where supposing it much better To be drown'd on Land than Water , Sweetly , neatly I sojourned Till that deluge thence returned . Thence to Cock at Budworth , where I Drunk strong ale as browne as berry , Till at last with deep-healths felled , To my bed I was compelled ; I for state was bravely sorted , By two Poulterers supported . Where no sooner understand I Of mine horest Hoast Tom ▪ Gandi , To Holme Chappell forthwith set I , Maid and Hostesse both were prety , But to drinke tooke I affection , I forgot soone their complexion . Thence to Tauke-a-Hill resort I , An hill steepy , slippery , durty ; Smith with me being well acquainted Drunk with me till 's wits were tainted , Having left me , Venus swore it , She 'd shooe-horn her Vulcans forehead . At New-Castle under line-a , There I trounc'd it in burn't wine-a ; None o th' Wicked there remained , Weekly Lectures were proclaimed : Chastity they roughly handle , While blind zeale snuffs out the candle . Thence to th' Bell at Stone streight draw I , i i ô my honey-suckle Delia ▪ Delia no Diana saw I ; By the Parson I was cited Who held me for Jesuited ; In his search , the door fast locked , Nought but Cards were in my pocket . Thence to Haywood taking flight-a , The Hostesse gave me brawne at night-a ; But what 's that unto the matter ? Whiskins sorted with my nature : To brave Bacchus no gift quicker Than oblations of strong liquor . Thence to Ridgelay , where a Black-smith , Liquor being all hee 'd take with , Boused with me ; mid-night waking And a looking-glasse there taking , Chamber-pot was hol'd quite thorow , Which made me lye wet till morrow . Thence to Bruarton , old Claudus Did approve us and applaud us , Where I heard a wofull bleating , A curst wife her husband beating ; Neighbour rode for this default-a , While I dyde my front with malt-a . Thence to k k Inclos'd with cliffs , trees , Sciences , Artichokes , The fruitfull vale up to thy Temple lookes . Lichfield went I right on , Where I chanced to invite one , A Curmudgeon rich but nasty To a supper of a pasty . Having sipt , and supt , and ended , What I spent , the Miser lended . Thence to Colesill , to a Shamble Like an old Fox did I amble , To a cellar , troth I 'le tell ye , Fusty , musty , headlong fell I ; But the Butcher having made-a Th' fire his bed , no more I staid-a . Thence at Meredin appeare I , Where growne surfoot and sore weary , I repos'd , where I chuckt Jone-a , Felt her pulse , would further gone-a ; There we drunk , and no guest crost us , Till I tooke the Hoast for th' Hostesse . Thence to Coventre , where 't is said-a Coventre blew is only made-a ; This I know not , for sure am I In no Market bought I any ; Bacchus made me such a Scholer , Black nor blew , I knew no colour . Thence to Dunchurch , where report is Of pimps , punks a great resort is , But to me none such appeared , Bung nor Bung-hole I ne're feared ; Though the rich Chrone have feares plenty , Safe he sings whose purse is empty . At Daintre earely might you find me , But not th' Wench I left behind me , Neare the Schoole-house where I ●oused , Her I sought but she was spoused , Which I having heard that night-a , " Farewell ( quoth I ) Proselyta . Thence to Wedon , there I tarried In a Waggon to be carried ; Carriers there are to be found-a , Who will drink till th' world run round-a : " Pay , good fellows , I 'le pay nought heere , " I have l l My queasy stomach making bold , To give them that it could not hold . left more than I brought heere . Thence to Tosseter on a Tuesday , Where an artfull Batchler chus'd I To consort with ; we ne're budged , But to Bacchus revels trudged ; All the Night-long sat we at it Till we both grew heavy pated . Thence to Stratford where Frank m m Green is my name from him whom I obey , But tho my name be Green , my head is gray . Green-a , Daintiest Doe that e're was seene-a , Venus varnish me saluted , But no beauty long can sute it ; Beauty feedeth , beauty fadeth , Beauty lost , her wooer vadeth . Holding on my journey longer , Streight at Brickhill with TOM. YOUNGER . I arriv'd ; one by this cheese-a Styl'd the eighth wiseman of Greece-a , Voyce more sweet than Prognes sister , Like a Torch his nose doth glister . To Hocklayhole as I approached , Scylla's barmy cell I broached , Darke as th' Cave of Pluto's station , Or Laverna's habitation ; Quaffing there while I could stand-o , Madder grew I than Orlando . Thence to Dunstable , all about me ; Mice within , and Thieves without me ; But no feare affrights deep drinkers , There I tost it with my Skinkers ; Not a drop of wit remained Which the Bottle had not drained . Thence to Redburne , where were Players , None of Roscius actiue heyres ; Prologue crown'd with a Wreath of Iuy , Jetted like an Ape most lively : I told them sitting at the n n Actor . Even as in a ban a-quet are dish●es Of Sun-dry ta-ast . Author . Even so is thy doo-blet too long i th wa-ast ; Goe mend it thou knave , goe mend it . banket They should be canvas'd in a blanket . From thence with a stomack empty To the towne of o o Here Alban was ; his Tombe , his Title too ; " All Albion shew me such an Alban now . Albane went I , Where with wine I was so undon , As the Hand which guides to London In my blind hand I receaved , And her more acquaintance craved . Thence to th' Purse at Barnet known-a , There the Beares were come to Town-a ; Two rude Hunks , 't is troth I tell ye , Drawing neare them , they did smell me , And like two mis-shapen wretches Made me , ay me , wrong my bretches . Thence to Highgate , where I viewed p p Seven Hils there were in Rome , and so there be Seven Sights in New-Troy crave our memorie : 1 Tombes , 2 Guild-Hall Giants , 3 Stage-plaies , 4 Bedlam poore , 5 Ostr●ch , 6 Beare-garden , 7 Lyons in the Towre . City I so dearely loved , And th' Horne of Matriculation Drunk to th' freshmen of our Nation , To his memory saluted Whose branch'd head was last cornuted . Thence to Hollowell , Mother red cap , In a troupe of Trulls I did hap ; Whoors of Babylon me impalled , And me their Adonis called ; With me toy'd they , buss'd me , cull'd me , But being needy , out they pull'd me . Thence to Islington at Lion , Where a juggling I did spy one , Nimble with his Mates consorting , Mixing cheating with his sporting ; Creeping into th' Case of 's viall Spoil'd his juggling , made them fly all . Country left ; I in a fury To the Axe in Alder-Bury First arrived , that place slighted I at Rose in Holborne lighted , From the Rose in flaggons sayle I To the Griphin i th' Old-Bayly . Where no sooner doe I waken , Than to Three Cranes am I taken , Where I lodge and am no starter Till I see the Summer quarter ; Pert is FAUSTULUS and pleasing , Cup brimfull , and corpse in season . Yea , my merry mates and I too Oft to th' Cardinals Hat fly to , Where to Harts Horns we carouse it , As Minerva doth infuse it , But Actaon sick o th' yellows Mewes his wife up from good fellows . Under th' Signe of Pipe still fuming , And the Bush for ever flaming , Mulciber the motion moving , With Nose-burning Master shaming : A Shop neighbouring neare Iacco , Where Young vends his old Tobacco , As you like it , sometimes sealed , Which impression since repealed , As you make it , he will have it , And in Chart and Front engrave it : Harmelesse but no artlesse end Cloze I here unto my Friend . FINIS .
Upon the Errata's . BE●wixt Hawke and Buzzard , ô man , After th' Phraze of speech so common , Having seene this Journall at print , I found these Erata's in it ; Which if thou correct ( Kind Reader ) Nectar by thy Muses feeder . From the head unto the foot Nought but Error , looke unto 't . ●his observation have I found most true , ●rring , I learne mine Errors to subdue . NOw Venus pure Veines are with Wines inflamed , Now Venus full Veines are by wines restrained , For Venus swolne Veines are by Morphuus chained , From folly wained .

Barnabees JOURNALL . The Third part .

By Corymboeus .

Full-blowne my veines are , & so well they may , With brimming healths of wine drunk yesterday .
Barnabees JOVRNALL . His Northerne Journey : Third part . MIRTIL. WHup ( FAUSTULUS ) all draw ny thee That doe love thee , or lov'd by thee , Joying in thy safe returning ! Leave Court , care , & fruitlesse mourning ; Way th' ast walked , pray thee shew it , Where th' ast lived , what th' ast viewed . Not th' Ephesian Diana Is of more renoumed fam-a ; Acting wonders all invent thee , Painters in their Statues paint thee ; Banish feare , remove delay-man , Shew thy selfe a famous Way-man . FAUSTUL . LEave delay , and be not fearfull ! Why ; who e're saw me lesse cheerfull When I was by Fortune cuffed , Or by Fortunes smiles so puffed , As I shewd my selfe farre prouder Than when she more scornfull shewd her ? For the world , I would not prize her , Yea , in time I should despise her , Had she in her no good fellow That would drinke till he grew mellow ; Draw neare and heare , thou shalt have all , Hearing , joy in this my travall . First day having drunk with many , To Islington from London came I , Journey long and grievous wether , Yet the Ev'ning brought me thether , Having t'ane my pots by th' fier , Summer sand was never dryer . Thence to Kingsland ; where were feeding Cattell , Sheepe , and Mares for breeding ; As I found it , there I feared That my Rozinant was wear'ed : When he would jog on no faster Loose I turn'd him to the pasture . Thence to Totnam-high-crosse turning I departed 'fore next morning ; Hostesse on her Guests so doted Faustulus was little noted ; To an Hay-loft I was led in , Boords my bed , and straw my bedding . Having thus left High-Crosse early , I to Waltham travelled fairly , To the Hospitall of Oswald , And that Princely Seat of q q This seat , this royall object of the sight , Shall it for ever bid the World , good night ? Where our preceding Kings enjoy'd such blisse , And seal'd their amorous fancies with a kisse ! Th'bald ; There all night I drunk old Sack-a With my bed upon my back-a . Of the Kings House at Tibbals . Thence to Hodsdon , where stood watching Cheats who liv'd by conicatching , False Cards brought me , with them plaid I , Deare for their acquaintance paid I ; 'Fore a Iustice they appeared ; Them he praised , me he jeered . Thence to Ware , where mazie Amwell Mildly cuts the Southerne Chanell ; Rivers streaming , banks resounding , Middleton with wealth abounding : Mightily did these delight me ; " O I wish'd them Aqua vitae ! Thence to Wademill , where I rest me For a pot , for I was thirstie ; On me cryde they and did hout me , And like Beetles flockt about me : " Buy a Whip Sr ! no , a Laddle ; " Where 's your Horse Sr ? where your Saddle ? Thence at Puckridge I reposed , Hundred Beggars me inclosed ; " Beggars , quoth I , you are many , " But the poorest of you am I ; They no more did me importune Leaving me unto my fortune . Thence to Buntingford right trusty , Bedrid Host , but Hostesse lusty , That can chat and chirp it neatly , And in secret kisse you sweetly ; Here are Arbours decked gaily , Where the Buntin warbles daily . Thence to Roiston , there grasse groweth , Medes , flocks , fields the plowman soweth , Where a pious Prince frequented , Which observing , this I vented : " Since all flesh to r r Fields , floods , wasts , woods , Deare , Dogs , with well-tun'd crye , Are sports for Kings , yet Kings with these must dye . Fate 's a debter , " Retchlesse wretch , why liv'st no better ? Thence to Caxston , I was led in To a poor house , poorer bedding , Some there were had me suspected That with plague I was infected , So as I starke-naked drew me , Calling th' Hostesse streight to view me . Thence to Cambridge , where the Muses Haunt the Vine-bush , as their use is ; Like sparks up a Chimney warming , Or Flyes neare a Dung-hill swarming , In a Ring they did inclose me , Vowing they would never lose me . 'Bout mid-night for drinke I call Sr , As I had drunk nought at all Sr , But all this did little shame me , Tipsy went I , tipsy came I : Grounds , greenes , groves are wet and homely , But the Schollers wondrous comely . Thence to s s An aged Oake takes of this Towne survey ; Findes Birds their Nests , tels Passengers their way . Godmanchester , by one , With a Clowd as was Ixion , Was I gull'd ; she had no fellow , Her soft lips were moist & mellow , All night vow'd she to lye by me , But the giglet came not ny me . Thence to Huntington , in a cellar With a wench was there a dweller I did bargaine , but suspected By the Hoast who her affected , Down the staires he hurr'ed quickly , While I made me too too sickly , Thence to Harrington , be it spoken ! For Name-sake I gave a token To a Beggar that did crave it And as cheerfully receive it : More he need't not me importune For 't was th' utmost of my fortune . Thence to Stonegatehole , I 'l tell here Of a story that befell there , One who served an Atturney T'ane with beauty in his journey , Seeing a Coppice hastens thither Purposely to wanton with her . As these privatly conferred , A Rover tooke him unprepared , Search't his Port-mantua , bound him faster , And sent him naked to his Master : Set on 's Saddle with hands tyed , Th' Horse he neyed , Man he cryed . Th' Atturney when he had discerned One , he thought , behind him armed In white Armour , stoutly sturr'd him , For his Jade hee keenly spurr'd him : Both run one course to catch a Gudgeon , This Nak't , that frighted to their lodging . Singing along down t t Here of the whip a Covetous Priest did lick ; Who would not bury th' dead , was buried quick . Nothing more memor●ble than that Chappell of Sautry , rete●ning still with her that Covetous Priests memory . Sautry laning , I saw a Tombe one had beene laine in , And inquiring , One did tell it , 'T was where Rainsford buried ●h' Prelat : I saw , I smil'd , and could permit it , Greedy Priests might so be fitted . To th' Newfounded College came I , Commended to the care of many ; Bounteous are they , kind and loving , Doing whatsoe're's behoving : These hold and walke together wholly , And state their Lands on uses holy . Whether pure these are or are not , As I know not , so I care not ; But if they be dissembling Brothers , Their life surpasseth many others : See but their Cell , Schoole and their Temple , You 'l say the Stars were their exemple . Thence to Stilton , slowly paced , With no bloome nor blossome graced , With no plums nor apples stored , But bald like an old mans forehead ; Yet with Innes so well provided , Guests are pleas'd when they have tride it . Thence to Wansforth-brigs , a river , And a wife will live for ever ; River broad , an old wife jolly , Comely , seemely , free from folly ; Gates and gardens neatly gracious , Ports and Parks and pastures spatious . ●eeing there , as did become me , Written , LORD HAVE MERCY ON ME , On the Portels , I departed , ●est I should have sorer smarted ; Though from death none may be spared , 〈◊〉 to dye was scarce prepared . On a Hay-cock sleeping soundly , Th' River rose and tooke me roundly Downe the current ; people cryed , Sleeping , down the streame I hyed ; Where away , quoth they , from Greenland ? No ; from Wansforth-brigs in England . Thence to u u This house the Levarets bush . Burleigh , though 't was winter , No fire did the Chimney enter , Buttries without Butlers guarded , Stately gates were dooble-warded ; Hoary w w Ivy the Chimneis trophy . Chimneyes without smooke too , Hungry Kitchins without Cooke too . Hallowing loud , ô empty wonder ! * * Ecco's the keeper of a forlorne house . Ecco streight resounded , hunger . Who inhabits this vast brick-house ? Ecco made reply , the Titmouse ; Ominous Cell , no drudge at home Sir ! Ecco answer made , Be gone Sir . Thence to ancient y y Where be thy Masters ? Fellows ? Scholers ? Bursers ? O Stamford to thy shame , they 'r all turn'd Purs●rs . Stamford came I , Where are pencelesse purses many , Neatly wrought as doth become them , Lesse gold in them than is on them : Clawbacks more doe not assaile me , Than are Beggars swarming dayly . Though my cares were maine and many , To the The Drunkards cave , for so it may be call'd , Where many Malt-worms have beene soundly mall'd . Hole of Sara came I , Once a bona-roba , trust me , Though now buttock-shrunke and rustie ; But though nervy-oyle and fat-a , Her I caught by you know what-a . ●aving boldly thus adventur'd , ●nd my Sara's socket enter'd , ●er I sued , suted , sorted , ●ussed , bouzed , sneesed , snorted : ●ften sat she , when she got up ●ll her phraze was , " Drink thy pot up . Thence to Witham , having red there That the fattest Eele was bred there , Purposing some to intangle , Forth I went and tooke mine angle , Where an huge one having hooked , By her headlong was I dooked . a a Maeanders shores to Lethe's shadows tend ; Where waves sound cares , and banks imply our end . Thence to b b ● may compare this Towne , and be no lyer , With any shire for Whetstones and a Spire . Grantham I retiring , ●amous for a Spire aspiring , There a Pastor with his sweeting 〈◊〉 a chamber closely meeting ; 〈◊〉 great fury out he flung there Cause a Popish picture hung there . Here the Townsmen are amated That their Spire should be translated Unto PAUIS ; and great 's their labour How to purchase so much paper To enwrap it , as is fitting , To secure their Spire from splitting . Thence to c c A sandy plat a shady Elme receaves , Which cloths those Turrets with her shaken leaves . Here all along lyes Bevars spatious Vale , Neare which the streames of fruitfull Trent doe fall . Vallies three so fruitfull be , They 'r the wealth of Britannie . New-worke , flood-surrounded , Where I hoping most were drowned , Hand to hand I straightwayes shored To a Cellar richly stored , Till suspected for a picklock , Th' Beedle led me to the whip-stock . Thence to Tuxworth in the clay there , Where poor Travellers find such way there ; Wayes like bird-lime seeme to show them , Seats are Syrts to such as know them ; Th' Ivy hangs there , long has't hong there , Wine it never vended strong there . Thence to Retford , fish I fed on , And to th' adage I had red on , With carouses I did trimme me , That my fish might swim within me , As they had done being living , And i th' River nimbly diving . Thence to Scrubie , ô my Maker ! With a Pastor and a Taker Day I spent , I night divided , Thiefe did make me well provided : My poor Scrip did cause me feare him , All night long I came not neare him . Thence to Bautree , as I came there From the bushes neare the Lane there Rush'd a Tweake in gesture flanting , With a leering eye and wanton ; But my flesh I did subdue it , Fearing lest my purse should rue it . Thence to d d That cur●'fie might a curtesie enforce , The Mayre would bring the Lawyer to his horse : You shall not , quoth the Lawyer ; M. now I sweare , I 'le to the gallows goe . L. I 'le leave you there , Might not this Mayre for wit a second Pale-As Have nam'd the Town-end full as well as Gallows ? Doncaster , where reported ●ively Levit was departed , ●ove I loath'd and spritely wine too , Which I dearely lov'd sometime too : ●or when youthfull Venus ageth , 〈◊〉 my fleshly force asswageth . Thirst knowes neither meane nor measure , Robin Hoods Well was my treasure , ●n a common e e A Well , thorne , dish hung in an iron chainè , For monuments of Robin Hood remaine . dish enchained , ● my furious thirst restrained : ●nd because I drunk the deeper , ● paid two farthings to the keeper . ●hence to f f ●n a rock Want built her booth , Where no creature dwels but Sloth . Wentbrig , where vile wretches , ●ideous hags and odious witches , ●rithen count'nance and mis-shapen ●re by some foule Bugbeare taken : ●hese infernall seats inherit , Who contract with such a Spirit . Thence to Ferrybrig , sore wearied , ●urfoot , but in spirit cheered ; ● the grape no sooner tasted Than my melancholy wasted : Never was wild Boare more fellish , Though the wine did smally relish . Thence to g g The Tragick stage of English Kings stood here , Which to their urns payes tribute with a teare . Pomfrait , as long since is , Fatall to our * * Here stood that fatall Theatre of Kings , Which for revenge mounts up with aery wings . English Princes ; For the choicest h h Here Licorice grows upon their mellowed banks , Decking the Spring with her delicious plants . Licorice crowned , And for sundry acts renowned : A Louse in Pomfrait is not surer , Then the Poor through sloth securer . Thence to Sherburne , dearely loved , And for Pinners well approved ; Cherry tenths the Pastor aymeth More than th' soules which he reclaimeth : In an Equi-page consorting Are their manners and their fortune . Thence to Bramham , thither comming , I saw two Footmen stript for running ; One told me , " th' match was made to cheat them , " Trust me Faustulus , This will beat 'em , " For we 've tride them : but that Courser He priz'd better , prov'd the worser . Thence to Tadcaster , where stood reared A faire Bridge , where no stood appeared , Broken Pavements , Beggars waiting , Nothing more than labour hating , But with speed I hastned from them , Lest I should be held one of them . Thence to Yorke , fresh youth enjoying With a wanton Weaver toying , Husband suddenly appeares too " Catching of the Wolfe by th' Eares too ; He cryes open , something feares him , But th' deafe Adder never heares him . Thus my entrance was descried , While the Weaver was denied , Who as he fumed , fret , and frowned With a chamber-pot was crowned ; Wisely silent he ne're grudged While his Betty with me lodged . Piper being here committed , ●uilty found , condemn'd and titted , she was to Knavesmyre going , ●his day , quoth Boyes , will spoile thy blowing ; from thy Pipe th' art now departing ; ●ags , quoth th' Piper , you 'r not certaine . ●ll which happen'd to our wonder , ●or the halter cut asunder , ●s one of all life deprived ●eing buried , he revived : ●nd there lives , and plays his measure , ●olding hanging but a pleasure . Thence to Towlerton , where those Stagers Or Horse-coursers run for wagers ; ●eare to the high way the course is , Where they ride and run their horses ; ●ut still on our journey went we , ●irst , or Last , did like content me . Thence to Helperby I turned Desolate and lately burned , Not a Taphouse there but mourned , Being all to ashes turned , Whence I swiftly did remove me For thirst-sake , as did behove me . Thence to h h Topcliffe from tops of cliffs first tooke her name , And her cliffe-mounted seat confirms the same : Where streames with curled windings overflowne Bestow a native beauty on the towne . Topcliffe , musick call'd I , In no comely posture fail'd I , But when these expected wages , To themselves I left my Pages ; Small being th' curt'sy I could shew them Th' reckning I commended to them . Thence to i i Here Thyrsis fed his Lambkins on the Plaine , So Thyrske from Thyrsis tooke her ancient Name . Here Tityrus and Phyllis made them Bowers Of tender Osyers , sweet-breath'd Sycomours . Thyrske , rich Thyrsis casket , Where faire Phyllis fils her basket With choice flowers , but these be vaine things , I esteeme no flowers nor Swainlings ; In Bacchus yard , field , booth or cottage I love nought like his cold pottage . Thence to Alerton , rankt in battell , Sheepe , Kine , Oxen , other Cattell , As I fortun'd to passe by there Were the Towns best beautifier : Faire for Beasts at that time fell there , But I made my Fayre the Celler . ●hence to Smeton , I assailed ●●wsy Hill , for so they call it , ●here were dainty Ducks , and gant ones , ●enches that could play the wantons , ●hich they practise , truth I 'le tell ye , ●or reliefe of back and bellie . Thence to Where shores yeeld Lenticks , branches pearled gems , Their Lamprels shells , their rocks soft moffy stems . Nesham , now translated , Once a Nunnery dedicated ; ●allies smiling , Bottoms pleasing , ●treaming Rivers never ceasing , ●eckt with tufty woods and shady , Graced by a lovely Lady . Thence to Darlington , there I boused Till at last I was espoused ; Marriage feast and all prepared , Not a fig for th' world I cared ; All night long by th' pot I tarried As if I had ne're beene married . Thence to l l From a Rich mound thy appellation came , And thy rich seat proves it a proper name . Richmund , heavy sentence ! There were none of my acquaintance , All my noble Cumrads gone were , Of them all I found not one there , But lest care should make me sicker , I did bury care in liquor . Penance chac'd that crime of mine hard , Thence to Redmeere to a Swine-heard Came I , where they nothing plast me But a Swines-gut that was nastie , Had I not then wash'd my liver , In my guts't had stuck for ever . Thence to Carperbie very greedy , Consorts frequent , victuals needy ; After Supper they so tost me As seven shillings there it cost me : Soone may one of coyne be soaked , Yet for want of liquor choaked . Thence to Wenchly , Valley-seated , ●or antiquity repeated ; ●heep and Sheepheard as one brother Kindly drink to one another ; Till pot-hardy light as feather Sheep and Shepheard sleep together . Thence to Middlam , where I viewed Th' Castle which so stately shewed ; Down the staires , 't is truth I tell ye , To a knot of brave Boyes fell I ; All red-noses , no dye deeper , Yet not one but a peace-keeper . Thence to m m Here breaths an arched cave of antique stature , Closed above with thorns , below with water . Ayscarth , from a mountaine ●ruitfull vallies , pleasant fountaine , Woolly flocks , cliffs steep and snowy , ●ields , f●nns , sedgy rushes saw I ; Which high Mount is call'd the Temple , ●or all prospects an exemple . Thence to Worton , being lighted I was solemnly invited By a Captains wife most vewlie , Though , I thinke , she never knew me ; I came , call'd , coll'd , toy'd , trifl'd , kissed , " Captaine Cornu-cap'd I wished . Thence to Bainbrig , where the River From his channell seemes to sever , To Maidenly Iohn I forthwith hasted , And his best provision tasted ; Th' hoast I had ( a thing not common ) Seemed neither man nor woman . Thence to n n A Channell strait confines a chrystall spring , Washing the wals o th' village neighbouring . Askrig , market noted , But no handsomnesse about it , Neither Magistrate nor Mayor Ever were elected there : Here poor people live by knitting , To their Trading , breeding fitting . Thence to o o A shallow Rill , whose streames their current keep , With murm'ring voyce & pace procure sweet sleep . Hardraw , where 's hard hunger , Barraine cliffs and clints of wonder ; Never here Adonis lived , Unlesse in Coles Harbour hived : Ins are nasty , dusty , fustie , Both with smoake and rubbish mustie . Thence to Gastile , I was drawne in To an Alehouse neare adjoining To a Chappell , I drunk Stingo With a Butcher and Domingo Th' p p I askt him what 's a Clock ? He look'd at th' Sun : But want of Latin made him answer — Mum. Curat , who to my discerning Was not guilty of much learning . Thence to * * Here grows a bush in artfull mazes round , Where th' active organs of my braine were drownd . Sedbergh , sometimes joy-all , Gamesome , gladsome , richly royall , But those jolly boyes are sunken , " Now scarce once a yeare one drunken : There I durst not well be merry , Farre from home old Foxes werry . Thence to q q Here the retyred Tanner builds him bowrs , Shrowds him from Summers heat and winters showrs . Killington I passed , Where an hill is freely grassed , There I staid not though halfe-tyred , Higher still my thoughts aspired : Taking leave of Mountains many , To my native Country came I. ●hence to Kendall , pure her state is , ●rudent too her Magistrate is , ●n whose charter to them granted ●othing but a r r Now Saturns yeare h 'as drench'd down care , And made an Alderman a Mayre . Mayor wanted ; ●ere it likes me to bee dwelling , ●ousing , loving , stories telling . FINIS .

If thou doest love thy flock , leave off to pot .
Barnabees JOVRNALL . His Northerne Journey : The Fourth part . MIRTIL. O FAUSTULUS , takes't no pitty For the Field to leave the City ? Nor thy Consorts , lively Skinkers , Witty wags , and lusty Drinkers , Lads of life , who wash their liver And are dry and thirsty ever ? Wilt thou here no longer tarrie With these Boyes that love Canarie ? Wilt thou leave these nectar trenches , Dainty Doxes , merry wenches ? Say , what makes thee change thy ditty , Thus to take farewell oth'City ? FAUSTUL . WHat is 't makes me ? doest not note it How I have i th' Taverne floted , Till a thousand seeke to shame me , There goes Faustulus , so they name me , Who through all the World traced , And with Stile of Maltworme graced ! Who carouseth to his breeding From Aurora's beamelins spreding To the Ev'ning , and despiseth Favour , thrift which each man prizeth ! Now heare Faustulus melancholly , Th' clozing Scene of all his folly .

Now I hate all forraine places , Robin Hoods Well and his chaces , Farewell Rosington , farewell Retford , And thou ancient seat of Bedford , Farewell Dunchurch , Dunstable , Brickhill , Albàn , Barnet , Pimlico , Tickhill . Farewell Waltham , Seat of Oswald , That bright Princely Starre of The'bald , Farewell Godmanchester , where I Was deluded by a Fairy , Farewell Kingsland , Islington , s s — These be my New Troyes dying Elegies . Now to that New Troy bid adue for ever , Wine , Venus , Pictures , can allure me never , These are youths darlings , ages hoary griever , Fare ye well ever . Farewell for ever , see you will I never , Yet if Wife , Children , Meney hurry thether , Where we may plant and solace us together , Welcome for ever . London , Which I lov'd , and by it undon . Farewell Buntingford , where are Thrushes , Sweet Briers , Shred vines , privet bushes , Hostesse cheerefull , mildly moving , Giving tokens of her loving ; I must in another Nation Take my fill of recreation .

Farewell Yorke , I must forsake thee , ●ervers shuttle shall not take mee , Hoary hayres are come upon me , Youthfull pranks will not become me ; ●h'bed to which I 'm reconciled ●hall be by me ne're defiled . Winter h 'as now behoar'd my haires , ●enumm'd my ioynts and sinewes too , ●●byllis for verses little cares , ●eave City then , to th' Country go . ●oets , when they have writ of love their fill , ●rowne old , are scorn'd , though fancy crowne their quill . Farewell Wentbrig , Towlerton , Sherbuern , Ferry-brig , Tadcaster , Helperbe , Merburne , Farewell Bainebrig , Askrig , Worton , Hardraw , Wenchley , Smeton , Burton , Farewell Asycarth , Carperbe , Redmeere , Gastyle , Killington , and Sedbergh . ● am now become a Drover , Countrey-liver , Countrey-lover , ●mell of gaine my sense benummeth , ●ittle care I whence it commeth , ●e't from Campe , chore , cottage , carpet , ●ield , fold , cellar , forrest , market . Horse-Faires . To Malton come I , praising th' saile Sir , Of an horse without a taile Sir , Be he maim'd , lam'd , blind , diseased , If I sell him , I 'm well pleased ; Should this Javell dye next morrow , I partake not in his sorrow . Then to Rippon I appeare there To sell horse if they be deare there , If good cheape , I use to buy them , And ith'Country profit by them ; " Where to quicken them , I 'le tell ye , " I put quick Eeles in their bellie . Northerne Faires . Thence to Pomfrait , freshly flowred , And with * * Rods of Licorice sweetly smile In that rich Angelick I 'le . See Book 3. Stanz . 48. rods of Licorice stored ; Thence to Topcliffe with my fellow , Not to bouze Wine but to sell-lo ; Thence to Thyrske , where Bullocks grazed , Are for sale ith'market placed . Thence to Allerton cheerefull , fruitfull , To the Seller very gratefull , There to chuse a place I 'm chariest , Where my beasts may shew the fairest ; Thence to Darlington , never swarving From our Drove-lawes , worth observing . Thence to Middlam am I aiming In a direct course of gaining , I refuse no kind of labour , Where I smell some gainfull savour ; " No way , be it ne're the homeliest " Is rejected being honest . Tra-montane Faires . In these Faires if I finde nothing Worthy staying , I 'm no slow thing , To the North frame I my passage Wing'd with hope of more advantage : Ragged rocks , and steepy hillows Are by gaine more soft than pillows . Thence to native Applebie mount I , Th' antient Seat of all that County ; Thence to pearelesse Penrith went I , Which of Merchandize hath plenty ; Thence to Roslay , where our Lot is To commerce with people Scottish . By a passage crooktly tending , Thence to Ravinglasse I 'm bending ; Thence to Dalton most delightfull ; Thence to oaten Ouston fruitfull ; Thence to Hauxides Marish pasture ; Thence to th' Seat of old Lancaster . Thence to Garestang , where are feeding Heards with large fronts freely breeding ; Thence to Ingleforth I descended , Where choice Bull-calfs will be vended ; Thence to Burtons boundiers passe I , Faire in flocks , in pastures grassie . Thence to Hornebie , Seat renouned , " Thus with gaine are worldlings drowned ; Secret-sacred thirst of treasure Makes my Bullocks my best pleasure ; Should Love wooe me , I 'd not have her , " It is gaine yelds sweetest savour . Thence to Lonesdale , where were at it ●oyes that scorn'd quart-ale by statute , Till they stagger'd , stammer'd , stumbled , Railed , reeled , rowled , tumbled , Musing I should be so stranged , I resolv'd them , I was changed . 〈◊〉 the sinke of sin they drew me , ●here like Hogs in mire they tow me , 〈◊〉 like Dogs unto their vomit , ●●t their purpose I o'recommed ; ●●ith shut eyes I flung in anger ●●om thoses Mates of death and danger . MIRTIL. SUrely ( FAUSTULUS ) I doe wonder How thou who so long liv'd under Bacchus , where choice wits resounded , Should'st be thus i th' world drowned . What do'st , where liv'st , in briefe deliver , Wilt thou be a worldling ever ? ●AUSTUL THou err'st ( Mirtilus ) so doe mo too , If thou think'st I never goe to Bacchus temple , which I follow , " Once a yeare laughs wise Apollo ; ●here I drench griefes , sleight Physitians , ●●yre I change , but no conditions . ●heerefull Cumrades have I by me , ●ownsmen that doe neighbour ny me , ●ithin , without , where e're I rest me , ●arking cares doe ne'r● molest me : ●ith these I please to consort me , ●nd in u u Thus through the faire fields , when I have best leasure , Diapred richly , doe I take my pleasure , To cheere my studies with a pleasing measure . open fields to sport me . Now to Richmund , when Spring 's comming , Now to Nesham with my woman , With free course we both approve it , Where we live and are beloved ; Here fields flower with freshest creatures Representing Flora's features . Now to Ashton I 'm invited By my friend and kinsman cited , Secret cellars entertaine me , Beauteous-beaming Stars inflame me , Meat , mirth , musick , wines are there full , With a count'nance blith and cherefull . Now to Cowbrow , quickly thither Joviall boyes doe flock together , In which place all sorrow lost is , Guests know how to kisse their hostesse , Nought but love doth border neare it , Goose or Hen will witnesse beare it . Now to Natland , where choice beauty And a Shepheard doe salute me , Lips I relish richly roseack , Purely Nectar and Ambroseack ; But I 'm chaste , as doth become me , For the Countreys eyes are on me . Now to Kirkland , truly by it May that Say be verified , " Far from God , but neare the Temple , Though their Pastor give exemple , They are such a kind of vermin , Pipe they 'd rather heare than Sermon . Now to Kendall , for * * A Towne so highly renouned for her commodious cloathing , and industrious Trading , as her name is become famous in that kind . Camb. in Brit. Cloth is my bread . Mot. Cloth-making , Sight , site , w w Now hast thou chang'd thy title unto May're , Let life , state , style improve thy charter there . Alderman awaking , Beauteous Damsels , modest mothers , And her foure and twenty brothers , Ever in her honour spreading , Where I had my native breeding . ●here I 'le tell you ( while none mind us ) ●e throw th' house quit out at windows , ●ought makes them or me ought sory , ●hey dance lively with Iohn Dori : ●oly Brethren with their Poet ●●ng , nor care they much who know it . Now to Staveley streight repaire I , Where sweet Birds doe hatch their airy , Arbours , Osyers freshly showing With soft mossie rinde or'e-growing : For woods , ayre , ale , all excelling , Would'st thou have a neater dwelling ? MIRTIL. BEE 't so Faustulus ! there repose thee , Cheere thy Country with thy posie ; Live , fare-well , as thou deservest , Rich in Arethusa's harvest ; Under th' Beach while Shepheards ranke thee Zephyrus blesse thee . FAUST . I doe thanke thee . FINIS . HEre in the Countrey live I with my Page , Where Tmolus Cups I make my golden age . Ceres send corne , with corne adde grapes unto it , Poet to wine , and long life to the Poet.
Upon the Errata's . Reader , thinke no wonder by it , If with Towne I 've Towne supplied , If my meeters backward nature Set before what should be later , " As for instance is exprest there , Harrington after Godmanchester . What though brieves too be made longo's ? What tho vowels be dipthongo's ? What tho graves become acute too ? What tho accents become mute too ? What tho freely , fully , plainly I've broke Priscians forehead mainly ? What tho seat with seat I 've strained ? What tho my limpe-verse be maimed ? What tho Night I 've t'ane for Day too ? What tho I 've made bryers my way too ? Know ye , I 've declin'd most bravely " Titubo-titubas-titubavi . FINIS .
To Philoxenus . THEE , pleasing way-mates titled have their patron , Their Countreys glory , which they build their state on , The Poets wine-bush , which they use to prate on , Arts mery minion . In Lyrick measures doth thy Bard salute thee , Who with a constant resolution suits thee , Nor can ought move me to remove me from thee , But my religion .

Bessie Bell. DAMAETAS . ELIZA-BELLA . DAM . 1. MY bonny Bell , I love thee so well , I would thou wad scud a lang hether , That we might here in a Cellar dwell , And blend our bows together ! Deere a'rt to me as thy geere's to thee , The Warld will never suspect us , This place it is private , 't is folly to drive it , Loves Spies have no eyes to detect us . BEL. 2. Trust me Damaetas , youth will not let us , Yet to be cing'd with loves taper , Bonny blith Swainlin intend thy Lamkin , To requite both thy layes and thy labour . I love not thee , why should'st thou love me , The yoake I cannot approve it , Then lye still with one , I 'de rather have none , Nor I love , nor am lov'd , nor have loved . DAM . 3. To lead Apes in hell , it will not do well , 'T is an enemy to procreation , In the world to tarry and never to marry Would bring it soone to desolation . See my countnance is merry , cheeks red as chery , This Cover will never suspect us , This place it is private , 't is folly to drive it , Loves Spyes have no eyes to detect us . BEL. 4. 'Las , maidens must faine it , I love though I laine it , I would , but I will not confesse it , My yeares are consorting and faine would bee sporting , But bashfulnesse shames to expresse it . I love not thee , why should'st thou love me , That yoake I cannot approve it , Then lye still with one , I 'de rather have none , Nor I love , nor am lov'd , nor have loved . DAM . 5. My beauteous Bell , who stars doest excel , See mine eyes never dries but do weat me , Some confort unbuckle my sweet honey-suckle , Come away , doe not stay , I intreat thee . Delay would undoe me , hye quickly un●o me , This River will never suspect us , This place it is private , 't is folly to drive it , Loves Spyes have no eies to detect us . BEL. 6. Come on Damatas , ripe age doth fit us , Take aside thy nak't Bride and enjoy her , So thou coll thy sweeting , let flocks fall a bleeting , My maids weed on thy meed I 'le bestow there . Thus love I thee , so be thou love me , The yoake is so sweet I approve it , To lye still with one is better than none , I doe love , I am lov'd , and have lov'd it .
