An Innes of Court man.

HE is distinguished from a Schol∣ler by a paire of silke stockings, and a Beauer Hat, which makes him contemne a Scholler as much as a Scholler doth a Scholemaster. By that he hath heard one mooting, and seen two plaies, he thinkes as basely of the Page  [unnumbered] Vniuersity, as a young Sophister doth of the Grammer-schoole. He talkes of the Vniuersity, with that state, as if he were her Chancellour; finds fault with al∣terations, and the fall of Discipline, with an It was not so when I was a Stu∣dent; although that was within this halfe yeare. He will talke ends of La∣tine, though it be false, with as great confidence, as euer Cicero could pronounce an Oration, though his best authors for't, be Tauerns & Ordinaries. He is as farre behinde a Courtier in his fashion, as a scholler is behinde him: and the best grace in his behauiour, is to forget his acquaintance.

Hee laughes at euery man whose Band sits not well, or that hath not a faire shoo-ty, and he is ashamed to be seene in any mans company that weares not his clothes well. His very essence he placeth in his outside, and his chiefest prayer is, that his reuenues may hold out for Taffata cloakes in the Summer, and veluet in the winter. Page  [unnumbered] For his recreation, hee had rather go to a Citizens Wife, then a Bawdy∣house, only to saue charges: and hee holds Fee-taile to bee absolutely the best Tenure. To his acquaintance hee offers two quarts of wine, for one hee giues. You shall neuer see him me∣lancholie, but when he wants a newe Suite, or feares a Seriant: At which times only, he betakes himselfe to Ploy∣don. By that hee hath read Littleton, he can call Solon, Licurgus, and Iusti∣nian, fooles, and dares compare his Law to a Lord Chiefe-iustices.
