Of Auctus, a swilbole.
Alone to taste, vp Auctus quafta bole with wine full fraught:
Ne was he yet content with this,
but askt an other draught.
The goblet was not washt, he saied,
and bad them fill againe:
Whiche doen, he drinkes a freshe, and letts
no drop behinde remaine.
Now that so muche he doeth require,
alone to taste and trie:
How muche trowe you will he desire,
attacht with thirst and drie?
