_By a Student of the University of Dublin.
Cum ita semper me amares_,
How to reward you all my care is,
_Consilium tibi do imprimis_
For I believe that short my time is;
_Amice Admodum amande_,
Pray thee leave off thy drinking brandy,
_Video qua sorte jaceo hic_,
'Tis all for that, O sick! O sick!
_Mors mea, vexat matrem piam_,
No dog was e'er so sick as I am.
_Secundo mi amice bone_,
My breeches take, but there's no money,
_Et vestes etiam tibi dentur_,
If such old things to wear you'll venture;
_Pediculos si potes pellas_,
But they are sometimes prince's fellows;
_Accipe libros etiam musam_,
If I had lived I ne'er had used them,
_Spero quod his contentus eris_,
For I've a friend almost as dear is,
_Vale ne plus tibi detur_.
But send her up, Jack, if you meet her.
