Satyre 4.
Cheating Droone.
There is a Cheater by profession,
That takes more shapes than the Camelion.
Sometimes he iets it in a black furd gowne,
And that is, when he harbours in the towne.
Sometimes a cloake to mantle hoary age,
Il fauored like an ape in spightful rage:
And then he walks in Paules a turne or two,
To see by Cheating what his wit can do.
Perhaps heele tell a Gentleman a tale,
Will cost him twenty angels in the sale:
But if he know his purse well linde within,
And by that meanes he cannot finger him,
He'le proffer him such far fet curtesie,
That shortly in a Tauerne neighbring by,
He hath encag'd the silly Gentleman,
To whom he proffers seruice all he can.
Sir, I perceiue you are of gentle bloud
Therefore I will, our Cates be new and good:
