Tit. And., IV: 2. 1222. THRIFT.-Jacob's, Recommended. Shy. * Mark what Jacob did. * When Laban and himself were compromis'd That all the eanlings which were streak'd and pied Should fall as Jacob's hire; the ewes, be ing rank, In end of autumn turned to the rams: And, in the doing of the deed of kind, Who, then conceiving, did in eaning-time Fall particolour'd lambs, and those were Jacob's. This was a way to thrive, and he was bless'd; And thrift is blessing, if men steal it not. TICKLING.-Trout Caught by. Mar. ** For here comes the trout that must be caught with tickling. H.

Per. * * Whereby I see that Time 's the king of men, For he 's their parent, and he is their grave, And gives them what he will, not what they crave. P., II: 3. 1651. Dol. Captain! thou abominable cheater, art thou not ashamed to be called -captain? If captains were of my mind, they would truncheon you out, for taking their names upon you before you have earned them. You a captain, you slave! for what? * * He a captain! Hang him, rogue! He lives upon mouldy stewed prunes, and dried cakes.

IV., 2 pt., II: 4. 786. -Bombastic Use of. Shal. Sir Hugh, persuade me not; I will make a Star-chamber matter of it; if he were twenty sir John Falstaffs, he shall not abuse Robert Shallow, esquire.
