“Cox and Swain, lived a song of sorrowed yore. One with dash, his fellow with half a brain, two bastard urchins napped from gaggled Poor. Rude-made pox boys who made a pact of pain, as half-freight bound for an orphan shore. Bound over in roguish twain, rather whipped than buggered they swore. Bought by the Captain did coin their name; Two rudderless sons of an utterless whore.” -George Alsop, PROVINCE of MARYLAND, January 17, 1659, Baltimore Towne
