Of Cornelius. 53.

See you him yonder, who sits o're the stage,
With the Tobacco-pipe now at his mouth?
It is Cornelius that braue gallant youth,
Who is new printed to this fangled age:
He weares a Ierkin cudgeld with gold lace,

A profound slop, a hat scarce pipkin high,
For boots, a paire of dagge cases; his face,
Furr'd with Cads-beard: his poynard on his thigh.
He wallows in his walk his slop to grace,
Sweares by the Lord, daines no salutation
But to some iade that's sick of his owne fashion,
As farewell sweet Captaine, or (boy) come apace:
Yet this Sir Beuis, or the fayery Knight,
Put vp the lie because he durst not fight.
