IN FUSCUM. XXXIX.
- Fuscus is free, and hath the world at will;
- Yet, in the course of life that he doth lead,
- He's like a horse which, turning round a mill,
- Doth always in the self-same circle tread:
- First, he doth rise at ten; and at eleven
- He goes to Gill's, where he doth eat till one;
- Then sees a play till six; and sups at seven;
- And, after supper, straight to bed is gone;
- And there till ten next day he doth remain;
- And then he dines; then sees a comedy;
10 - And then he sups, and goes to bed again:
- Thus round he runs without variety,
- Save that sometimes he comes not to the play,
- But falls into a whore-house by the way.
- “My lord most court-like lies abed till noon,
- Then all high-stomacht riseth to his dinner;
- Falls straight to dice before his meat be down,
- Or to digest walks to some female sinner,
- Perhaps fore-tired he gets him to a play,
- Comes home to supper and then falls to dice;
- Then his devotion wakes till it be day,
- And so to bed where unto noon be lies.”
