A man of a noble blood, and well beloved in England, and hath been a great maintainer of all England, both rich & poor, yet now is found guilty of many a sinful act and bloody crime, & therefore he is arraigned & condemn'd, & stands to the mercy of the iury, & if any man have any thing to his charge, let them appear at the sign of the three Loggerheads in Bacchus court, and there they shall be heard by the two noble judges, Oliver & old Nick his holy father. Given under the hands & seals of these 2 above written, at the sign of the three merry companions in Bedlam, that is to say, poor Tom, merry Robin, and Iack Lackwit. Newly composed by a well wisher to Sir Iohn, and all that loves him. By poor Tom for the King, a lover of mirth, but a hater of traytors & mischief. Thomas Robins the author
