Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Juvenilia, Vol. 2: Poems The Scovrge. If thou perceiue some, as some will doe then, Keepe out a many worthy Gentlemen, And let a Laundresse or a Scoundrell passe, Giue him a ierke, and tell him hee´s an Asse. But lest thou spy what may make thee asham´d, (Or speake of that for which thou maist be blam´d) Leaue thou the Court, if thine owne selfe thou pitty, And come a while to walke about the City. As soone, as there thou entrest, thou shalt meet Great store of Gallants pasing out the street. A part, from Dice, or Fence, or Dancing come, And peraduenture, from a whore-house some: These, are good fellowes that will frankly spend, While Lands doe last, or any man will lend; And yet to see (more fooles the world had neuer) They are so proud, as if ´twould last for euer. And though these lightly cannot haue a worse, Or deadlier sickenesse, than an empty purse, Which will ensue; yet tell them, they must meet, At the Kings-bench, the Counters, or the Fleet. Then, step vnto the Lawyers: peraduenture They´l by some Writ command thee not to enter. Yet feare them ¬ but looke and thou shalt spy Vnder their gownes, a masse of knauery. Pluck off the maske of Law, that cloaks their drifts, And thou shalt see a world of lawlesse shifts. But, tell them there´s a Iudge will not be feed: And that perhaps will make their Conscience bleed. Then tell the Scriueners as thou passest by, That they were best to leaue their forgery, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
