To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" _Sic exit Coryatus_, says hisbiographer.
No sooner was he dead than his fellow Sireniacks fell upon hisreputation and tore it to shreds.
He was the imp, whilst he on earth surviv'd, From whom this West-World's pastimes were deriv'd; He was in city, country, field and court The well of dry-trimm'd jests, the pump of sport.
So writes the Water Poet. Another wag trounces his Crudities: Tom Coriat, I have seen thy Crudities, And methinks very strangely brewed it is, With piece and patch toget...her glued it is; And now (like thee) ill-favour'd hued it is. In many a line I see that lewd it is, And therefore fit to be subdued it is-- and much more to the same effect.
Coryat's "natalitial place, " as it happens, is very near to mine, andI find something to love in a man who can never forget it. He wasa cockscomb, he was an ass; but he preferred the West of Englandto Italy. He called James I. , our king, the "refulgent carbuncle ofChristendom, " and Prince Charles "the most glittering chrysolite ofour English diademe" Both are hard sayings.
