Hiccius Doccius
,—a cant word for a juggler in any station. Justice Mainwaring is an hiccus doccius.
“An old dull fool, who told the clock
“For many years at Bridewell-dock,
“At Westminster and Hick’s Hall,
“And hiccius doccius played in all;
“Where, in all governments and times,
“He’s been both friend and foe to crimes.”
