Sir Toby Matthews.

Say, but did you love so long?In troth I needs must blame you:
Passion did your Judgment wrong,
Or want of Reason shame you.

Truth, times fair and witty Daughter,Shortly shall discover,
Y'are a Subject fit for laughter,
And more Fool then Lover.

But I grant you merit praiseFor your constant Folly:
Since you doted three whole dayes,
Were you not melancholy?

She to whom you prov'd so true,And that very very Face,
Puts each minute such as you
A dozen dozen to disgrace.
