“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
