One desiring me to read, but slept it out; Wakening.

Nay, doe not Smile: my Lips shall rather dwell
For ever on my Pipe,
Then read to you, one word, or Sillable.
You are not ripe
To Iudge, or Apprehend
Of Witt. Ile rather Spend
Six howers together in Tobacco-taking,
Then read to you, and cannot keep you wakeing.
