IN QUINTUM. 12.

Quintus his wit[33] infused into his braine,

Mislikes[34] the place, and fled into his feet;

And there it wandered[35] up and downe the street,

Dabled in the dirt, and soakèd in the raine:

Doubtlesse his wit intends not to aspire,

Which leaues his head, to travell in the mire.

[Footnote 32: MS. "lynes." D.]

[Footnote 33: = Quintus's wit. G.]

[Footnote 34: Mislikt? G.]

[Footnote 35: Isham 'wanders.' G.]
