vain_a promiser_n idle_a protester_n servant_n of_o folly_n and_o scholar_n of_o deceit_n for_o in_o one_o word_n he_o neither_o perform_v what_o he_o common_o swear_v nor_o remember_v in_o absence_n what_o he_o have_v former_o protest_v so_o that_o his_o oath_n and_o word_n be_v like_o smoke_n and_o air_n and_o his_o deed_n and_o action_n mere_o shadow_n and_o far_o from_o substance_n the_o fantastic_a courtier_n be_v a_o antic_a inventor_n of_o fashion_n and_o so_o subject_a to_o newfanglenes_n that_o ere_o a_o suit_n of_o apparel_n be_v wear_v on_o his_o back_n he_o be_v devise_v another_o to_o please_v with_o variety_n a_o courtier_n be_v not_o a_o name_n incident_a to_o every_o one_o that_o follow_v the_o remoove_n for_o so_o you_o shall_v have_v many_o sluttish_a groom_n and_o slovenly_a under-seruant_n but_o be_v appropriate_a to_o such_o as_o either_o be_v voluntary_a for_o the_o king_n honour_n or_o their_o own_o preferment_n or_o in_o place_n of_o eminence_n fit_a to_o attend_v on_o man_n and_o woman_n of_o honor._n a_o courtier_n be_v sometime_o taunt_v with_o the_o term_n of_o effeminate_a and_o carpet_n knight_n because_o they_o know_v not_o how_o to_o tread_v but_o on_o rush_n of_o a_o chamber_n nor_o where_o to_o bestow_v themselves_o but_o on_o a_o bed_n side_n or_o wanton_a place_n of_o rest_n a_o courtier_n must_v needs_o be_v handsome_a in_o apparel_n neither_o over-garish_a nor_o over-plaine_a but_o orderly_o comely_a and_o extraordinary_o fashionable_a according_a to_o some_o private_a occasion_n or_o public_a solemnity_n a_o courtier_n must_v be_v serviceable_a to_o lady_n &_o woman_n of_o honour_n dutiful_a to_o high_a officer_n graceful_a among_o councillor_n pleasant_a among_o equal_n affable_a to_o inferior_n and_o courteous_a to_o all_o a_o courtier_n depend_v on_o a_o faction_n in_o palace_n be_v like_o a_o man_n that_o lag_v on_o a_o cart_n go_v up_o a_o hill_n which_o if_o he_o hold_v fast_o will_v in_o time_n draw_v

inferior_a person_n prefer_v before_o he_o a_o courtier_n be_v sometime_o terrify_v with_o want_n and_o loss_n of_o time_n for_o we_o common_o say_v a_o young_a courtier_n and_o old_a beggar_n therefore_o it_o be_v wisdom_n to_o prevent_v the_o worst_a and_o policy_n to_o provide_v before_o want_n knock_v at_o the_o door_n indeed_o the_o mean_a courtier_n life_n may_v many_o time_n be_v resemble_v to_o humble-bee_n which_o fly_v abroad_o the_o pleasant_a field_n all_o day_n and_o then_o retire_v to_o a_o cowshard_n at_o night_n so_o they_o frequent_v the_o palace_n and_o sometime_o be_v in_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n but_o how_o they_o lie_v and_o rest_n in_o their_o lodging_n it_o be_v pitiful_a to_o relate_v and_o barn_n &_o stable_n be_v good_a rest_a place_n courtier_n be_v bad_a paymaster_n and_o when_o the_o money_n be_v once_o in_o their_o purse_n it_o be_v hardly_o get_v out_o again_o for_o how_o ever_o they_o swear_v and_o protest_v they_o dispense_v with_o the_o time_n &_o make_v their_o creditor_n attend_v their_o leisure_n a_o courtier_n life_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o the_o merchant_n for_o he_o travel_v and_o leave_v his_o wife_n at_o home_n long_v for_o the_o end_n of_o a_o progress_n and_o this_o take_v a_o long_a journey_n and_o can_v return_v when_o he_o will_v in_o both_o discontinuance_n do_v many_o time_n diminish_v love_n and_o while_o their_o husband_n be_v trouble_v with_o the_o affair_n of_o the_o world_n their_o wife_n be_v delight_v with_o the_o pleasure_n of_o their_o bed_n a_o courtier_n scorn_v to_o be_v count_v uncivil_a yet_o esteem_v it_o a_o grace_n to_o be_v brave_a and_o high_o mind_v so_o that_o when_o pride_n be_v in_o fashion_n man_n may_v be_v vicious_a &_o when_o familiarity_n breed_v contempt_n it_o be_v a_o error_n to_o be_v humble_a thus_o be_v courtier_n the_o corrupter_n of_o virtue_n and_o mock-ape_n of_o time_n courtier_n be_v companion_n of_o soldier_n &_o and_z however_o they_o be_v curious_a and_o dainty_a in_o the_o palace_n they_o be_v noble_a and_o brave_o dispose_v in_o the_o field_n courtier_n be_v companion_n with_o scholar_n for_o without_o learning_n &_o observation_n they_o can_v practise_v humanity_n and_o good_a manner_n and_o unless_o they_o study_v and_o read_v history_n they_o will_v fail_v in_o discourse_n &_o conversation_n the_o principal_a end_n of_o a_o courtier_n life_n a_o courtier_n &_o citizen_n be_v many_o time_n eyesore_n to_o one_o another_o &_o so_o foppish_a we_o be_v by_o custom_n that_o we_o think_v derision_n a_o kind_n of_o virtue_n thus_o when_o a_o gentleman_n reprehend_v his_o servant_n he_o threaten_v he_o with_o play_v the_o merchant_n with_o he_o &_o when_o the_o trade_n man_n upbraid_v he_o he_o say_v he_o have_v serve_v he_o like_o a_o
