Ben Jonson - The Devil's Association
No doubt you'll render 65
A rare accompt of things. Bane o' your itch,
And ? cratching for imployment. I'll ha' brim? tone
To allay it ? ure, and fire to ? indge your nayles off,
But, that I would not ? uch a damn'd di? honor
Sticke on our ? tate, as that the _diuell_ were hang'd; 70
And could not ? aue a body, that he tooke
From _Tyborne_, but it mu? t come thither againe:
You ? hould e'en ride. But, vp away with him--
Iniquity _takes him on his back_.

He that caries the fiend, is ? ure of his loade. 75
The _Diuell_ was wont to carry away the euill; [166]
But, now, the Euill out-carries the _Diuell_.
