Vinum, & Vinegrum.

I neither hang out Bush nor Signe, t'inuite
The commers by to taste, what VVine I sell:
T'is new, but hard, the pallat to delight:
Yet I haue often heard some others tell,
That I haue VVine, some much more sweete then other:
Beleeue them not, for they may be deceau'd,
T'were better taste thy selfe, then trust an other:
I passe not if thou taste, or taste not, so I leau't:
It's that I made my selfe, t'was neuer bought,
Many pay deare, for that's exceeding nought.
