Surveyor. “Not long before your Highness sped to France,/ The Duke being at the Rose, within the parish/ Saint Lawrence Poultney, did of me demand/ What was the speech among the Londoners/ Concerning the French journey. I replied,/ Men fear’d the French would prove perfidious,/ To the King’s danger.”
