Comparing his neglect by the Canons at the present Christmas-time to the charity he had formerly enjoyed; but mentioning with gratitude Drs. Goodman and King, junior, Mr. Towse, and Mr. Will. Thomas.

Probably written about 1630.

Beg.: "This is Richard Adams’ ditty, / And very true, though nothing witty. / At Christmas last, as did appeare / The Prebends of Windsore had good cheare."
