Joe Dillon Ford added the following appropriate comment:
John's spirit in this piece doth rest
Which to his folly doth attest.
Song hath his ghost a captive made,
Behind these bars, in sheets arrayed.
Though watching ads is not a crime,
Distrait he died, before his time.
'Tis not a cause to celebrate,
So all take heed ere it's too late!
