Social Commentaries
Of Don Pedro's Dyet drinke
From The Most Elegant and Witty Epigrams (1618), Book 2
Social Commentaries
DOn Pedro drinkes to no man at the boord,
Nor once a taste doth of his cup affoord.
Some thinke it pride in him: but see their blindnesse
I know therein, his Lordship doth vs kindnesse.
