Against Cinna.
An Astrologian Cinna saidthat quickly thou shouldst dye,
Thy fate he did fortell thee thus:
and sure he did not lye.
For whilest thou didst feare thou shouldst
leaue much behind to spend,
Thou reueling didst roist it out
and madst of all an end.
Not one yere fully was expirde
but all was gone wellny:
Declare me Cinna now, is this
not quickly for to dye?
