31 Of Marcus courtesie.
When I some little purchase haue in hand,Straight Marcus kindly offers me his band.
I tell him, and he takes it in great snuffe,
His is a Falling Band, I weare a Ruffe.
But if you maruaile I his helpe refuse,
And meane herein some meaner mans to vse:
The cause is this, I meane, within a weeke,
That he of me like courtesie will seeke.
