Norwich.

The two following are copied from the _originals_ written in the fly-leaf

of Brathwayte's _Panedone, or Health from Helicon_, pub. 1621, in my

possession:

1.

"Whose book I am if you would know,

In letters two I will you show:

The first is J, the most of might,

The next is M, in all men's sight;

Join these two letters discreetly,

And you will know my name thereby.

JAS. MORREY."

2.

"Philip Morrey is my name,

And with my pen I write the same;

Tho' had such pen been somewhat better,

I could have mended every letter."
