For few do write that were not so before;

And those that have writ best, had they been rich,

Had ne’er been clapp’d with a poetic itch;

Had loved their ease too well to take the pains

To undergo that drudgery of brains;

But, being for all other trades unfit,

Only t’ avoid being idle, set up wit.

PUFFING

They that do write in authors’ praises,

And freely give their friends their voices,
