[Fine Phillip comes vnto the Barbers shopp]

Fine Phillip comes vnto the Barbers shopp,
Wheer's nittie lockes must suffer reformation.
The Chayre and Cushion entertaine his sloppe:
The Barber craues to know his worships fashion.
His will is shauen; for his beard is thin,
It was so lately banish'd from his chinne.
But shauing oft will helpe it, he doth hope,
And therefore for the smooth-face cut he calles:
Then, fie; these cloathes are washt with common sope.
Why dost thou vse such ordinary balles?
I scorne this common trimming like a Boore,
Yet with his hart he loues a common whoore.
