What will serve mine own turn, I can quickly discern.

All my time at school I have not spent vainly,

I can help one: is not that a good point of philosophy?

Here entereth Carisophus.

Carisophus. I beshrew your fine ears, since you came from school,

In the court you have made many a wise man a fool:

And though you paint out your feigned philosophy,

So God help me, it is but a plain kind of flattery,

Which you use so finely in so pleasant a sort,

That none but Aristippus now makes the king sport.
