“For this unto courtiers moste commonly doth hap,That while they have broune bread and chese in their lap,On it faste gnawing as houndës ravenous,Anone by them passeth of meate delicious,And costly dishes a score may they tell,Their greedy gorges are rapt with the smell,The deynteous dishes which passe through the hall.”
