 | Flovvers of Epigrammes |  |
[88]
Of Aulus.
Looke when moste sober Aulus is,moste drunke is Aulus he.
Againe vnlesse that he be drunke,
he sober can not be.
For sober still he braules and braies,
he teares, and on he takes:
And like a bedlem beast, bothe sande
and sea together shakes.
But when that he hath quafte his fill,
no coile at all he keepes:
But casts hymself vpon his couche,
and (snortyng) soundly sleepes.
