The Holloway Pages: Ben Jonson: Works (1692 Folio): Bartholomew Fair
This site presents an original spelling version of Ben Jonson's Works, published
in 1692.
YOur Majesty is welcome to a Fair;
Such Place, such Men, such Language, and such Ware,
You must expect: with these, the zealous noise
Of your Lands Faction, scandaliz'd at Toys,
As Babies, Hobby-horses, Puppet-plays,
And such like rage, whereof the petulant ways
Your self have known, and have bin vext with long.
These for your Sport, without particular wrong,
Or just complaint of any private Man,
(Who of himself, or shall think well or can)
The Maker doth present: and hopes, to Night
To give you for a Fairing, true delight.
