Epigr. 17. Ad Aulicos.
Ye Courtiers, so may you in courtly sorteWith manners old, old Courtiers long remaine,
So that some vpstart courtiers ye refraine:
vnworthy of a peerelesse princes port.
As courtier leather, courtier pinne, and sope,
And courtier vinegeer, and starch and carde,
And courtier cups, such as were neuer heard,
And such as shall not court it long we hope.
The true gentilitie by their owne Armes,
Aduance themselues, the false by others harmes.
