 | Ex otio Negotium |  |
In Pontilianum, Epig. 40.
When thou dost lye, I seemingly believe,When thou repeatst bad verse, my praise I give,
When thou dost sing (Pontilian) I sing out,
And when thou dost carouse, I drink about,
When thou dost fart, I grunt too in conceipt,
And when thou playst at Chesse, I am still beat.
116
I shall be heir: I care not, prethee dye.
