AESCHINES	A
Hail sir Thyonichus	A
	-
THYONICHUS	A
schines to you	B
	-
AESCHINES	A
I have missed thee	C
	-
THYONICHUS	A
Missed me Why what ails him now	D
	-
AESCHINES	A
My friend I am ill at ease	A
	-
THYONICHUS	A
Then this explains	A
Thy leanness and thy prodigal moustache	E
And dried up curls Thy counterpart I saw	A
A wan Pythagorean yesterday	F
He said he came from Athens shoes he had none	G
He pined I'll warrant for a quartern loaf	H
	-
AESCHINES	A
Sir you will joke But I've been outraged sore	I
And by Cynisca I shall go stark mad	J
Ere you suspect a hair would turn the scale	K
	-
THYONICHUS	A
Such thou wert always schines my friend	L
In lazy mood or trenchant at thy whim	M
The world must wag But what's thy grievance now	D
	-
AESCHINES	A
That Argive Apis the Thessalian Knight	N
Myself and gallant Cleonicus supped	N
Within my grounds Two pullets I had slain	O
And a prime pig and broached my Biblian wine	P
'Twas four years old but fragrant as when new	B
Truffles were served to us and the drink was good	N
Well we got on and each must drain a cup	Q
To whom he fancied only each must name	R
We named and took our liquor as ordained	N
But she sate silent this before my face	A
Fancy my feelings 'Wilt not speak Hast seen	S
A wolf ' some wag said 'Shrewdly guessed ' quoth she	C
And blushed her blushes might have fired a torch	T
A wolf had charmed her Wolf her neighbour's son	G
Goodly and tall and fair in divers eyes	A
For his illustrious sake it was she pined	N
This had been breathed just idly in my ear	U
Shame on my beard I ne'er pursued the hint	N
Well when we four were deep amid our cups	A
The Knight must sing 'The Wolf' a local song	V
Right through for mischief All at once she wept	N
Hot tears as girls of six years old might weep	W
Clinging and clamouring round their mother's lap	X
And I you know my humour friend of mine	P
Drove at his face one two She gathered up	Q
Her robes and vanished straightway through the door	I
'And so I fail to please false lady mine	P
Another lies more welcome in thy lap	X
Go warm that other's heart he'll say thy tears	A
Are liquid pearls ' And as a swallow flies	A
Forth in a hurry here or there to find	N
A mouthful for her brood among the eaves	A
From her soft sofa passing swift she fled	N
Through folding doors and hall with random feet	N
'The stag had gained his heath' you know the rest	N
Three weeks a month nine days and ten to that	N
To day's the eleventh and 'tis just two months	A
All but two days since she and I were two	B
Hence is my beard of more than Thracian growth	Y
Now Wolf is all to her Wolf enters in	Z
At midnight I am a cypher in her eyes	A
The poor Megarian nowhere in the race	A
All would go right if I could once unlove	H
But now you wot the rat hath tasted tar	A2
And what may cure a swain at his wit's end	N
I know not Simus true a mate of mine	P
Loved Epichalcus' daughter and took ship	B2
And came home cured I too will sail the seas	A
Worse men it may be better are afloat	N
I shall still prove an average man at arms	A
	-
THYONICHUS	A
Now may thy love run smoothly schines	A
But should'st thou really mean a voyage out	N
The freeman's best paymaster's Ptolemy	C
	-
AESCHINES	A
What is he else	A
	-
THYONICHUS	A
A gentleman a man	C2
Of wit and taste the top of company	C
Loyal to ladies one whose eye is keen	S
For friends and keener still for enemies	A
Large in his bounties he in kingly sort	N
Denies a boon to none but schines	A
One should not ask too often This premised	N
If thou wilt clasp the military cloak	D2
O'er thy right shoulder and with legs astride	N
Await the onward rush of shielded men	E2
Hie thee to Egypt Age overtakes us all	F2
Our temples first then on o'er cheek and chin	Z
Slowly and surely creep the frosts of Time	G2
Up and do somewhat ere thy limbs are sere	H2
