That Grecian likewise had a happy time of it, who was sofrantic as to sit a whole day in the empty theatre laughing, shouting, and clapping his hands, as if he had really seen some pathetic tragedyacted to the life, when indeed all was no more than the strength ofimagination, and the efforts of delusion, while in all other respectsthe same person behaved himself very discreetly was, Sweet to his friends, to his wife, obliging, kind, And so averse from a revengeful mind, That had his men unseale...d his bottled wine, He would not fret, nor doggedly repine.
And when by a course of physic he was recovered from this frenzy, helooked upon his cure so far from a kindness, that he thus reasons thecase with his friends: This remedy, my friends, is worse i' th' main Than the disease, the cure augments the pain; My only hope is a relapse again, And certainly they were the more mad of the two who endeavoured tobereave him of so pleasing a delirium, and recall all the aches of hishead by dispelling the mists of his brain.
