The self-same day
........................poor Elizabeth wrote
To her great pater,
................... he sent his head-groom
On post-haste gallop,
..................... to make with boldness
One swift abduction
................. from soldier Bate's room.
Leaving behind florins
............................... and promise too
Of early promotion
..............................to Post of renown
The groom vexed and bound her,
........................ what could she do?
Tied like a sack,
............. she was rushed out of town.
Discovery made,
.................... as the Peer supposed,
Undid Thomas,
............... but took he the proposal?
