Nigel Fox Poet I do not know?

Fat Jack Falstaff

That he is old more the pity
His white hairs do witness it

If food, wine and beer be a fault
Then God help the wicked

But for a sweet Jack Falstaff
Kind Jack Falstaff
True Jack Falstaff
Valiant Jack Falstaff 
Therefore more valiant
Being as he is old Jack Falstaff

Banish not him from your friendship
Banish plump Jack
Then banish all the world

My apologises to Shakespeare ! 
An adaption from Henry IV
