Even such another,
Squeaking, gibbering, of everie degree.
The player fooles dear darling pigsnie
He calls himselfe his brother,
Come of the verie same familie."
Tarlton's Horse Loade of Fooles.
Chaucer, in "The Milleres Tale," says—
"Hire shoon were laced on her legges hie;
She was a primerole (primrose), a piggesnie."
