for Mortgaging his Lands twice over, was fain to Skulk about, and to play
least in sight: Thus he that but a while ago profusely spent his Money on a
Whore, was now reduc'd to that condition that he wanted Bread: Whilst both
the Bawd and Whore which he had wasted all upon, forsook him without so
much as minding what became of him; but left him poor and penniless, to
seek his Bread where he could get it. And thus deserted by the Whore, and
hated by all honest People, and haunted by a guilty self-accusing
Conscience, he became a Burthen to himself: Cursing the Day in which he
harkned to the Bawd's Insinuations, by whose means he was thus drawn in, to

HIS EPITAPH.

_Here lies a Man who would not Warning take,_
_And now for others may a Warning make:_
_He spent his Substance upon _Bawds_ and _Whores_,_
_Destroy'd his Wife, turn'd's Children out of Doors._
_And yet when all was spent, and he grown Poor,_
_He was forsaken both by _Bawd_ and _Whore_._
_Let all henceforth of _Bawds_ and _Whores_ beware,_
_By whom he was betray'd to black Despair._

_Thus Reader, by this Story thou may'st see_
_How by Lewd Women Men deluded be:_
_The _Bawd's_ the Setter, and the Shameless _Whore__
_Sucks him so dry, she quickly makes him Poor._
_First of his Wit, then of his Wealth bereaves him;_
_And when she has got all she can, she leaves him._
_Then let all Mankind loath this filthy Jade,_
