No more of this: the tother bids play on,
Tis good our spirits shuld something work vpon.
Tut gentle Sir, be pleasant man (quoth he)
Yours be the pleasure, mine the charge shall be.
This do I for the loue of gentlemen,
Hereafter happily if we meete agen,
I shall of you expect like curtesie,
Finding fit time and opportunitie:
Or else I were vngratefull, quoth the cunny,
It shall go hard, but we wil find some mony.
For some we haue, that some wel vsd gets more,
And so in time we shall increase our store;
Meane time said he, imploy it to good vse,
For time ill spent, doth purchase times abuse.
With that more wine he calls for and intends,
That either of them carouse all their frends:
The cunny nods the head, yet sayes not nay,
Because the other would the charge defray;
The end tryes all, and here begins the iest,
My gentleman betooke him to his rest.
