FAB. CCCCLXIII.

The _Bitches Bed-maker_.

You must needs make this Bitches Bed immediately, says the Master of the

House to his Maid, for she’s just ready to lie down. It was not done it

seems, and the Man was very Angry with the Wench for not doing as she was

bid. Alas, says the Poor Girl, I’de have made her Bed with all my Heart,

if I could but have told which way she’d lie with her Head, and which

with her Backside.

The MORAL.
