Mustred ther amonge them with many a mad tale;

With a frere of Fraunce men call sir Gagwyne,

That frownyd[1583] on me full angerly and pale;

But blessyd Bachus, that bote is of all bale,

Of clusters engrosyd with his ruddy flotis[1584]

Theis orators and poetis refresshid there throtis;

Plutarke and Petrarke, two famous clarkis;

Lucilius and Valerius Maximus by name; 380

With Vincencius in Speculo, that wrote noble warkis;

Propercius and Pisandros, poetis of noble fame;
