Against a wittold Broker

E PIG . 215.

I SEE thee sell all baggage; then I muse
Thou keep'st thy wife vnsold: but 'tis no newes
For mens worst ware lies longest on their hand,
And sith thy wife all men may still command;
What neede they buy her then? No, shee will passe
When thou hast nothing els, for glasse or brasse
Like a Virginian sauage; but till then
Keepe her vnsold to deale with Englishmen.
