I can go no farther here.  I should be counted censorious, and
perhaps unjust, if I should enter into the unpleasing work of reflecting,
whatever cause there was for it, upon the unthankfulness and return of
all manner of wickedness among us, which I was so much an eye-
witness of myself.  I shall conclude the account of this calamitous
year therefore with a coarse but sincere stanza of my own, which I
placed at the end of my ordinary memorandums the same year they
were written: -

A dreadful plague in London was
In the year sixty-five,
Which swept an hundred thousand souls
Away; yet I alive!
