One of the privie chamber to the king;
Who, while the prince with Frier Bacon staies,
Have revel'd it in Oxford as you see.
Mason. My lord, pardon us, we knew not what you were: 110
But courtiers may make greater skapes than these.
Wilt please your honour dine with me to-day?
Warren. I will, maister doctor, and satisfie the vintner for his hurt; only I must desire you to imagine him[1388] all the forenoon the Prince of Wales. 115
Mason. I will, sir.
Raphe. And upon that I will lead the way; onely I will have Miles go before me, because I have heard Henrie say that wisedome must go before majestie.
Exeunt omnes.
