B15 Heere lye’s a Lord that Wenching thought no sinne |
Notes. Thomas Sackville, Lord Buckhurst, 1st Earl of Dorset, and Lord Treasurer under James I, died on 19 April 1608 during a meeting at the Privy Council table.
Heere lye’s a Lord that Wenching thought no sinne
and bought his flesh by selling of our skinne
His name was Sackvile & so Void of Pitty
as hee did rob the Country with the Citty.
