Epigram 7: The way to make a Welch-man thirst
From The Sculler (1612)
Social Commentaries
The way to make a Welch-man thirst for blisse,
And say his prayers daily on his knees:
Is to perswade him that most certaine tis,
The Moone is made of nothing but greene Cheese.
And heele desire of God no greater boone.
But place in heauen to feede vpon the Moone.
