Men call me Gog Magog, the Spirit of Power; My Right-hand Riches holds, my Left-hand Honour. Is there a City Wife wou'd be a Lady? Bring her to me, Her easy Cuckold shall be dubb'd a Knight. Ela. Oh Heavens! a Mad-man, Sir. Cin. A rich Mechanick that wou'd be an Alderman? Bring 'em to me, And I'll convert that Coxcomb, and that Blockhead, into Your Honour and Right-Worshipful. Doct.
