Sejanus
by
Ben Jonson
Haile Caius Silius.
Titius Sabinus, Hayle.
You are rarely met in Court!
Therfore, well met.
It is true: Indeed, this Place is not our Sphære.
No Silius, we are no good Inginers;
We want the fine Artes, and their thriuing vse
Should make us grac'd, or fauor'd of the Times:
We have no shift of Faces, no cleft Tongues,
No soft, and glutinous bodies, that can stick,
Like Snailes, on painted walls; or, on our brests,
Creepe up, to fall, from that proud height, to which
We did by slauerie, not by seruice, clime.
We are no guilty men, and then no Great;
We have nor place in Court, Office in state,
That we can say, we owe vnto our Crimes;
We burne with no black secrets, which can make
Us deare to the pale Authors; or liue fear'd
Of their still waking iealosies, to raise
Ourselves a Fortune, by subuerting theirs.
We stand not in the lines, that do aduance
To that so courted point.
But yonder leane
A paire that do.
(Good Cossen Latiaris.)
Satrius Secundus, and Pinnarius Nat . . .
