Gremio But after many ceremonies done, He calls for wine. 'A health!' quoth he as if He had been aboard carousing to his mates After a storm, quaffed off the muscadel And threw the sops all in the sexton's face, Having no other reason But that his beard grew thin and hungerly, And seemed to ask him sops as he was drinking.
