Noble Gentlemen,

THe Gentleman that Spoke last, Declares our Ambitions at Court, but not our Lux∣ury in the Country, and though we have not Court Ladies and City Dames to our Mistres∣ses, yet we have Country Wives and Tenants Daughters for our Wenches, and we Eat and Drink our Selves into Surfeiting Diseases, and our Expences are far more in Riotous Hospita∣lities, than the Courtiers in their Foolish Flat∣tering Vanities: for the Natures of Gentlemen and Noble men are for the most part Prodigal, whether they be in Court, City, or Country, and they will never Rest untill such time as their Money is Spent, and their Land Sold, and then they become Idle Drones for want of Stings, which is Wealth, to Imploy them.
