Upon a Miser that made a great feast,
and the next day died for grief.

Nor 'scapes he so; our dinner was so good

My liquorish Muse cannot but chew the cud,

And what delight she took in th' invitation

Strives to taste o'er again in this relation.

After a tedious grace in Hopkins' rhyme,

Not for devotion but to take up time,

Marched the trained-band of dishes, ushered there

To show their postures and then as they were.
