"How much of this muck do you suppose is to be found on your rock, Bob?" asked Mark, after he had examined the dingui's cargo, by sight, taste, and smell. "If is surprisingly like a rich earth, if it be not actually so." "Lord bless you, Mr. Mark, there is enough on't to fill the old 'Cocus, ag'in and ag'in.

Concerning the life and writings of John Ruesbroeck and Brother John Cocus, more is told in a little book that hath been put forth of late, and that is entitled "Of the Origin of the Monastery of the Groenendaal." Of the death of the venerable Master Gerard Groote, a man most devout.

The same day likewise there came a great number of scutes vnto our ships, bringing all kinds of victuailes to sel, as Hennes, Egges, Cocus, Bonanas, sugar canes, Cakes of Ryce baked, and many other thinges.

The nineteenth of Iuly as wee sailed by a towne, many Portingalles borded vs, and brought vs certaine Cocus and Hens to sell, which wee bought for other wares. The 22. of the same Month wee came before the towne of Bantam, within three miles of it, and there ankered vnder an Island.

Tremor et successio non cadunt in fortem et constantem. I send you a distich on the Lord Coke "Jus condere Cocus potuit, sed condere jure Non potuit; potuit condere jura cocis."

The rage of marrying is very prevalent; so that there will be probably a great crop of cuckolds next winter, who are at present only 'cocus en herbs'. It will contribute to population, and so far must be allowed to be a public benefit. Lord G , Mr. B , and Mr. D , are, in this respect, very meritorious; for they have all married handsome women, without one shilling fortune.

In the eucharistic office of St Kentigern's day, this event, along with the restoration to life of a meritorious cook, and other miracles, inspired a canticle which, for long subsequent ages, was exultingly sung by the choristers in the saint's own cathedral of Glasgow, thus: "Garrit ales pernecatus. Cocus est resuscitatus. Salit vervex trucidatus Amputato capite."
