"Near to the place [Rosemary Lane] where Frippery-Woman stand
With Stays, Coats, Suits, and Breeches, second hand;
Where rags of everysize and sort are sold,
And Thieves there daily Correspondence hold:
There stands a House, wherein if fame not lies,
The Stars at Noonday to Men's sight arise,
And Charles his Wain in Sunshine greets there eyes,
* * * * * *
What's to our purpose, is, good Drink belongs
to this same House"
" A Vademecum for Maltworms," p. 16.
