TWo young Scholars Travelling from Roan to Paris, there to study, met by the way a Country-fellow ri∣ding on an Ass, which bray'd in such manner, as if he had been overjoy'd to be in such Learned society; these Stu∣dents thinking to put a trick on the Paisant, said, Friend, why do you let your Brother cry in that manner, cannot you find out any way to still and quiet him? The Paisant who was none of the most ig∣norant of the Parish wherein he dwelt; answered, My Ass, Sirs, is so extreamy pleased to meet with his Relations, and old Aquaintance, he could do no less then sing a Song of Mirth, and merry glee, in testimony of your hearty welcome to him.A Gentlewoman of singular beauty but highly conceited thereof, went to an Eminent Painter at Paris, ordering him to draw her Picture like a Maid to the Life in little, and yet represent her in full proportion. The Painter did as much as in him lay, and carried home the Picture to the Gen∣tlewoman, who misliked nothing there∣in but that he had drawn her too little. 0
