Line 275 disgest ] (to) stomach; (to) bring slowly to a state of perfection Loose mimics ] players; (by extension) dissipated flatterers.
The text of "A Funeral Elegy" by W. S by Shakespeare, William / Shakespeare Studies
To be more specific, how likely is it that a writer whose most celebrated tragic hero envied the histrionic gifts of the First Player, in whom a mere "dream of passion" provoked "Tears in his eyes, distraction in his aspect," would have been moved to praise William Peter for his determinedly un-actorlike quiet sincerity: this man (whiles yet he was a man) Sooth'd not the current of besotted fashion: Nor could disgest as some loose Mimicks can, An empty sound of ouer-weening passion.
Who wrote "A Funerall Elegie"? by Duncan-Jones, Katherine / Shakespeare Studies
