Epigram

The lealous State with more then Argus eyes
Mustering up it's wakfull misteries
Finds it not safe that either fort or Toune
Ship or the Like be trusted more i'th'Crown
But kept for it by them: because say they
Wee'l not confide but i'th'Militia
Yet mark how they'r deceivd upon this skoar
The Crown hath stil one New-Castle's worth more.
