Just so your idle vagrant, he would work for his living, but no body will hire him; he would work, but he wants clothes; clothes you give him, but then he wants tooles; you supply him with tooles, but the truth is, he hath an infirmity, he is lame in his limbs and sickly; nay, the truth is, he is lame in his will and sick of the lazies: were the will right, these excuses needed not.
