Facetiae : Musarum deliciae, or, The Muses recreation, conteining ...

Fancies and Fantasticks.375Enter Fidler.But before all be done,With a Christopher strong,Comes Musick none, though Fidler onejWhile the Owle and his Grandchild,With a face like a Manchild,Amaz'd in their Nest,Awake from their Rest,And seek out an Oake to laugh in.Such a dismall chance,Makes the Church-yard dance,When the Screech Owls guts string a Coffin,When a Fidlers coarse,Catches cold and grows hoarse,Oh ye never heard a sadder,When a Rattle-headed Cutter,Makes his will before Supper,To the Tune of the Nooze and the Ladder.
