_Salisbury, on a Window._

My Dear, like a Candle,
Lights every one's Handle,
Yet loses no Bit of her own:
She will piss, and she'll kiss
Until every one hiss,

_Anagram._

A Toast is like a Sot,
Or what is most
Comparable ---- a Sot,

So I'll in a Case of this Weight to decide,
Heav'n send me at once both the Thick and the Long;
So closing her pious Petition, she dy'd.

_Written on the pillory in a certain Market-Town in Shropshire; on two
Millers, named Bone and Skin, who exacted extravagant Toll._

Bone and Skin,
Two Millers thin,
Would grind this Town and Places near it:
But be it known
To Skin and Bone,
That Flesh and Blood won't bear it.

_Richmond, Yorkshire, on a Window._

If Death doth come as soon as Breath departs;
Then he must often die, who often farts:
And if to die be but to lose one's Breath;
Then Death's a Fart, and so a Fart for Death.

_The Motto upon a Sign of a Gardiner's Window, who kept a Publick House
