Strana vii - I FIRST adventure, with fool-hardy might, To tread the steps of perilous despite. I first adventure, follow me who list, And be the second English satirist.
Strana 9 - Holla, ye pampered jades of Asia ! What, can ye draw but twenty miles a day, And have so proud a chariot at your heels, And such a coachman as great Tamburlaine...
Strana 64 - But could he have (as I did it mistake) So little in his purse, so much upon his back ? So nothing in his maw ? yet seemeth by his belt, That his gaunt gut not too much stuffing felt. Seest thou how side it hangs beneath his hip ? Hunger and heavy iron makes girdles slip.
Strana 10 - Then weeneth he his base drink-drowned spright, Rapt to the threefold loft of heaven hight, When he conceives upon his feigned stage The stalking steps of his great personage, Graced with huff-cap terms and thund'ring threats, That his poor hearers

Strana 52 - To suit a fool's far-fetched livery. A French head joined to neck Italian, Thy thighs from Germany, and breast from Spain; An Englishman in none, a fool in all; Many in one, and one in several. Then men were men; but now the greater part Beasts are in life and women are in heart.
Strana 50 - So lovers' contracts, images of those, Bind but till sleep, death's image, them unloose? Or, your own end to justify, For having purposed change, and falsehood, you Can have no way but falsehood to be true? Vain lunatic, against these 'scapes I could Dispute, and conquer, if I would, Which I abstain to do, For by tomorrow, I may think so too.
Strana 111 - ... to the great admiration of all the beholders; but then, by little and little, they grew usual among the nobility and others of sort, and within twenty years became a great trade of coachmaking.
