Left they for want of warm months might have starved,

Where they do revel in such passing measure,

(Especially the Greek, wherein's his pleasure.)

That (jovially) so Greek he takes the guard of,

That he's the merriest Greek that ere was heard of;

For he as 'twere his Mothers twittle twattle,

(That's Mother-tongue) the Greek can prittle prattle.

Nay, of that Tongue he so hath got the Body,

That he sports with it at Ruffe, Gleek or Noddy, &c.

He died at London in the midst of the Reign of King James I. and lieth buried in St. Giles in the Fields.
