[Alas Delfridus keepes his bed God knowes]

Alas Delfridus keepes his bed God knowes,
Which is a signe his worship's verie ill;
His griefe beyond the grounds of Phisicke goes,
No Doctor that comes neere it with his skill,
Yet doth he eate, drinke, talke, and sleepe profound
Seeming to all mens Iudgments healthfull sound.
Then gesse the cause he thus to bed is drawne,
What? thinke you so; may such a hap procure it?
Well; faith tis true, his hose are out at pawne,
A Breetchlesse chaunce is come, he must indure it
His hose to Brokers Iayle committed are,
His singuler, and onely, Veluet paire.
