SONG (3) by ROYALL TYLER

First Line: OH LIKE A STORKE AMONG THE RUSH
Last Line: MORE THAN A WHOLE ETERNITY.

OH like a Storke among the Rush
Or Bottle hung in Chimney high
Or like an Owl in Ivy Bush
Yea such a doleful wretch am I
But he for aye shall sit secure
Forever and eke ay for Aye
Also likewise he shall endure
More than a whole Eternity.
