Steele Glas, The, a satire in verse by
Gascoigne, published 1576.
The common looking-glass only shows the thing much better than it is. Looking into his ‘steele glas’ the poet sees himself with his faults and then successively the faults of kings; covetous lords and knights; drunken soldiers; false judges; merchants; priests; etc. Finally the ploughman is held up as a model:Behold him (priests) & though he stink of sweat
Disdaine him not: for shal I tel you what?
Such clime to heaven, before the shaven crownes.
