Gau. Oh but (they say) the tongues of dying men
Gau. Inforce attention like deepe harmony;
Gau. Where words are scarse, they are seldome spent in vaine,
Gau. For they breath truth, that breath their words in paine.
Gau. He that no more must say, is listen'd more,
Gau. Then they whom youth and ease haue taught to glose,
Gau. More are mens ends markt, then their liues before,
Gau. The setting Sun, and Musicke is the close
Gau. As the last taste of sweetes, is sweetest last,
Gau. Writ in remembrance, more then things long past;
Gau. Though Richard my liues counsell would not heare,
Gau. My deaths sad tale, may yet vndeafe his eare.

Yor. No, it is stopt with other flatt'ring sounds
Yor. As praises of his state: then there are sound
Yor. Lasciuious Meeters, to whose venom sound
Yor. The open eare of youth doth alwayes listen.
Yor. Report of fashions in proud Italy,
Yor. Whose manners still our tardie apish Nation
Yor. Limpes after in base imitation.
