Excerpt from Philip Massinger, Vol. 2: Edited, With Introduction and Notes
What things have we seen Done at the Mermaid! Heard words that have been 80 nimble, and so full of subtle flame, As if that every one from whence they came Had meant to put his whole wit in a jest, And had resolved to live a fool the rest Of his dull life.
