Dein pro-cancellarium Produxit equitantem, In equum valde agilem Huc et illuc saltantem: Sed parce, precor, parcito, Nam tibi vix credetur Si non sub ejus cauda Urtica poneretur. Then aimes he at our orator, And at his speech he snarles, Because he forced a word, and called The prince "most Jacob-Charles." But leave it, scholler, leave it, For he did it compose That puts you down as much for tongue you do him for nose. As Then flies he to our comedies, And there he doth professe He saw among our actors A perfect diocess. But leave it, scholler, leave it, 'Twas no such witty fiction, For since you leave the vicar out, Tunc evomit sententiam In ipsum oratorem Qui dixit Jacobissimum, Præter Latinum morem. Sed parce, precor, parcito, Orator exit talis Qui magis pollet lingua Quam ipse naso vales. Adibat ad comœdiam Et cuncta circumspexit, Actorum diocesin Completam hic detexit: Sed parce, precor, parcito, Hæc cogitare mente Non valet jurisdictio Vicario absente.

Polonia land can tell, Through which he oft did trace, And bore a fardell at his back, He nere went other pace. But leave him, scholler, leave him, He learned it of his sire, And if you put him from his trott Hee'l lay you in the myre. Fictitio equo subdidit Ut eum ire cogeret Gradu submissiore: Sed parce, precor, parcito, Si iste stabularius Habenis moderetur. Testis est Polonia, Quam sæpe is transivit, Et oneratus sarcina Eodem gradu ivit. Tum parce, precor, parcito, Et credas hoc futurum, Si Brutum regat Asinus Gradatim non iturum. |
