And how (when the King sent for him) he refused (with his company) to leave the hill of ants to go to the king : and therefore the king went to him which he wittily excused with many other very pleasant passages / written by W.S. Deloney, Thomas, 1543?-1600. 1680 (1680) Wing D957C; ESTC R175927 7,586 24
