A CATCH set by Docter BLOW . IN a Seller at Sodom at the sign of the T— Two buxum young Harlots were drinking with L— Some say they were his Daughters No matter for that , They're resolv'd they would souse their old Dad with a Pot ; All fluster'd and bousie The doting old Sot , As great as a Monarch between 'em was got , Till the eldest and wisest thus open'd the Plot Pray shew us dear Daddy how we were begot . God zoukes , you young Jades , 'twas the first Oath I wot The Devil of a Serpent this Humor has taught , No matter , they cry'd , you shall pawn for the shot , Unless you will shew us how we were begot .
