_How Doctor Faustus sold five Swine for six Dollars apiece_
[Illustration]
Doctor Faustus began another jest, he made him ready five fat Swine,
the which he sold to one for six Dollars a piece, upon this condition,
that the Swine-driver should not drive them into the water. Doctor
Faustus went home again, and as the Swine had defiled themselves in
the mud, the Swine-driver drove them into a water, where presently
they were changed into so many bundles of straw swimming upright in the
water: the boor looked wishly about him, and was sorry in his heart,
but he knew not where to find Faustus, so he was content to let all go,
and to lose both money and Hogs.
