 | A mastif whelp with other ruff-Island-lik Currs fetcht from amongst the Antipedes |  |
Satire 57.
[A waie with him quoth gold daub'd Thamaccus]
A waie with him quoth gold daub'd Thamaccus,His speechles silence shewes he is an Asse,
A Dunce you see, that knowes not how to looke,
Some braine-beater or porrer on a booke.
Tell him ath' mounting Faulcons braue made flight,
Or what mouth'd hound makes huntsmen best delight.
Discourse to him of which Dogg made a faulte,
How Thunder spent, or what made Tyndall hault,
Awaie, awaie: awaie with senceles blockes,
Farr better 'tis to tell it vnto stockes.
Thus sh'wes Sir Gold-cold-witted Asse his skill,
And floutes the Poore-ritch-minded scholler still,
