AN ECHO.

"What wantst thou, that thou art in this sad taking?

_A King._

What made him first remove hence his residing?

_Siding._

Did any here deny him satisfaction?

_Faction._

Tell me wherein the strength of faction lies?

_On Lies._

What didst though when the king left his parliament?

_Lament._

What terms wouldst give to gain his company?

_Any._

What wouldst thou do if here thou mightst behold him?

_Hold him._

But wouldst thou save him with they best endeavour?

_Ever._

But if he come not, what become of London?

_Undone._"

I also wish to know (if any of your readers will enlighten me I shall be

obliged) what is the meaning of the name "Thwaites." It is a very common

name, there being Thwaites, Thornthwaites, Hawthornthwaites,

Haythornthwaites, in abundance through all part of England.
