To
the
Worshipfull

Sir
MARKE
IVE

Hall

Essex

N.B.
wisheth

SIR
,
your
many
fauours
,
and
my
small
deserts
,
make
mee
study
how
to
discharge
my selfe
of
ingratitude
,
which
not
knowing
better
how
to
doe
,
then
by
the
labour
of
my
spirit
,
to
shew
the
nature
of
my
loue
,
I
haue
thought
good
to
present
your
patience
with
this
little
volume
of
varieties
,
in
which
,
though
the
Title
promise
no
matter
of
great
worth
,
yet
it
may
be
,
if
you
peruse
it
,
you
shall
finde
somewhat
that
you
may
like
in
it
:
howsoeuer
it
be
,
it
may
serue
you
in
the
Winter
,
to
keepe
you
from
sleep
by
the
fire
side
,
and
in
the
Summer
in
shady
walkes
,
to
passe
away
idle
time
.
In
briefe
,
wishing
it
of
that
nature
,
that
might
come
neere
the
worthinesse
of
your
acceptation
,
I
leaue
it
with
my
better
seruice
,
to
the
fauor
of
your
good
discretion
:
and
so
in
all
humilitie
rest
,
Yours
affectionately
to
command

To
the
Reader
.
IT
was
my
hap
of
late
,
walking
thorow
the
fields
,
to
light
vpon
a
peece
of
paper
,
in
which
I
found
a
kind
of
discourse
,
set
down
vpon
an
imagination
of
midnight
.
By
whom
it
was
written
,
I
know
not
,
but
by
whomsoeuer
,
I
liked
it
so
well
,
that
wishing
my selfe
able
to
doe
halfe
so
well
,
I
fell
into
an
humor
of
imitating
the
veyne
,
so
neer
as
I
could
,
in
description
of
the
twelue
houres
,
the
twelue
moneths
,
and
some
speciall
dayes
in
the
yere
:
how
wel
to
your
liking
,
I
know
not
;
but
my
labour
herein
hath
not
bin
little
,
&
my
desire
much
,
I
meane
to
doe
well
;
which
if
I
haue
not
,
I
can
be
but
sory
,
that
my
dull
wit
hath
not
bin
fed
with
a
more
pleasing
humour
:
but
if
you
be
able
to
iudge
of
the
worth
of
it
,
and
like
it
,
I
shall
be
more
glad
then
proud
of
it
:
howsoeuer
it
be
,
hoping
of
your
kindnes
,
I
leaue
it
to
your
like
censure
;
&
so
,
loth
to
entertaine
your
patience
with
a
long
tale
to
little
purpose
,
I
thus
conclude
,
and
in
affection
and
discretion
,
I
rest
,

The
World
.
TOuching
my
opinion
of
the
world
,
I
will
tell
you
as
briefly
as
I
can
,
what
I
thinke
of
it
:
a
place
wherein
are
contained
the
variety
of
things
:
Men
thinke
,
women
talk
,
beasts
féed
,
birds
flye

,
fire

,
grasse
groweth
,
and
time
withereth
.
Wealth
is
a
Iewell
,
and
pouerty
is
a
plague
:
Conscience
is
a
charge
,
and
care
is
a
burden
.
Pride
is
a
Lord
of
misrule
,
and
beauty
is
painted
.
Mars
must
yéeld
to
Mercury
,
and
Diana
is
a
strange
woman
:
Cupid
is
an
idle
inuention
,
and
all
is
as
good
as
nothing
.
Loue
is
more
talked
of
then
proued
.
Couetousnesse
the
key
of
wit
,
Nature
the
trouble
of
Reason
,
and
Will
the
master
of
the
Senses
.
Beauty
is
an
eye
sore
,
Learning
a
taske
,
Ualour
a
heat
,
and
reason
a
study
.
A
King

a

a

a
Lawyer

a
wise

:
a
Merchant

a
rich

a
Begger
a
poore
man

and
an

an

Fayre
weather

:
foule
weather

The

Meate
is
necessary
,
and
sléepe
is
easefull
,
and
drinke
doth
well
,
and

.
Law
is
good
,
and
punishment
is
méet
,
and
reward
would
be
thought
on
:
and
fooles
would
be
pityed
,
and
so
.
Opinions
differ
,
and
Iudgements
vary
,
and
Time
trauailes
,
and
Trueth
is
a
vertue
,
and
wisedome
an
honor
:
and
honor
is
a
title
,
and
Grace
a
gift
,
and
Patience
a
blessing
,
and
Content
a
Kingdome
:
and
so
from
one
thing
to
another
,
a
trouble
in
all
.
A
kingdome
full
of
care
:
wit
full
of
trouble
power
full
of
charge
:
youth
full
of
action
:
Age
full
of
griefe
:
and
none
content
with
his
condition
:
wishing
in
one
,
willing
in
another
:
thinking
in
one
,
doing
in
another
:
working
in
one
,
crossing
in
another
:
thoughts
,
words
,
and
déeds
,
so
different
in
their
effects
,
that
for
ought
I
can
sée
in
it
,
when
I
haue
well
considered
of
it
,
I
can
say
thus
much
of
it
,
He
is
happy
that
hath
not
to
doe
with
it
.
And
not
to
dwell
too
long
vpon
it
,
to
conclude
my
opinion
briefl●
of
it
,
I
hold
it
the
Labyrinth
of
wit
,
and
the
toyle
of
vnderstanding
,
the
pilgrimage
of
patience
,
and
the
purgatory
of
reason
.
Farewell
.
Loue
.
TOuching
my
Iudgement
of
Loue
,
it
is
,
if
it
bee
any
thing
,
such
a
thing
to
speake
of
,
that
to
tell
truly
,
I
know
not
well
what
to
say
of
it
:
but
yet
what
I
imagine
of
it
,
I
will
tell
you
:
at
the
first
,
I
ghesse
,
it
was
an
old
nothing
,
to
exercise
wit
in
idlenes
,
and
now
,
is
a
kind
of
new-nothing
to
féed
folly
with
imagination
:
but
be
it
what
it
will
be
,
or
may
be
,
this
wanton
Loue
that
this
world
is
too
full
of
,
whatsoeuer
it
is
,
thus
much
I
find
of
it
:
It
is
begotten
by
the
eyes
,
bred
in
the
braines
,
walkes
in
the
tongue
,
growes
with
the
flesh
,
and
dyes
in
an
humour
:
and
this
ill
commonly
doth
trouble
wit
,
hinder
Arte
hurt
Nature
,
disgrace
Reason
lose
time
,
and
spoile
substance
:
It
crosseth
wisedome
,
serueth
Beautie
,
and
sotteth
Folly
:
weakneth
strength
,
and
baseth
Honour
:
It
is
only
Willes
darling
,
Patience
triall
,
and
Passions
torture
,
the
pleasure
of
melancholy
,
and
the
play
of
madnesse
,
the
delight
of
varieties
,
and
the
deuiser
of
vanities
:
The
Uirgins
cracke
,
and
the
Widowes
crosse
:
The
Batchelors
bane
and
the
maried
mans
Purgatory
:
the
Yong
mans
misery
and
the
Ageds
consumption
:
The
abuse
of
Learning
,
the
ground
of
Enuy
,
the
stirrer
of
wrath
,
and
the
cause
of
mischiefe
:
The
disquiet
of
the
mind
,
the
distractor
of
the
Wit
,
the
disturber
of
the
Senses
,
and
the
destruction
of
the
whole
body
.
A
fained
god
,
an
idle
fancy
,
a
kind
of
fury
,
and
in
some
kind
a
frenzy
.
To
conclude
,
I
hold
it
an
Inuention
of
idlenesse
,
and
an
Imagination
of
Indiscretion
:
the
plague
of
people
,
an
dt
he
mocke
of
the
Word
.
Farewell
.
Money
.
TO
tell
you
mine
opinion
of
money
,
I
thinke
it
the
Monarch
of
the
world
:
the
maintainer
of
Pride
,
the
Nurse
of
Couetousnesse
,
the
Steward
of
Lechery
,
the
sower
of
Sedition
,
the
cause
of
war
,
the
sacke
of
a
City
,
and
the
ouerthrow
of
a
Campe
:
The
Gluttons
Purueyour
,
and
the
Drunkards
Cupbearer
:
the
Thiefes
tempter
,
and
the
Hangmans
Master
:
The
misguider
of
Wit
,
the
corrupter
of
Conscience
,
the
blinder
of
Reason
,
and
the
ouerthrow
of
Honour
:
the
Usurers
God
,
the
poore
mans
oppression
,
the
Lawyers
hope
,
&
the
Laborers
hire
:
doth
good
to
few
,
but
hurt
to
many
:
puls
downe
the
Churches
,
and
builds
the
faire
houses
,
makes
the
Prodigall
an
Ape
,
and
the
miser
dogged
:
makes
Bridges
ouer
the
Sea
,
and
fire
in
mens
braines
:
fetch●th
the
Beasts
from
the
Wildernesse
,
and
the
Birds
from
the
Ayre
:
it
drawes
fansies
out
of
fine
Wits
,
and
eloquence
from
learned
mouths
:
It
makes
friends
foes
,
and
enemies
friends
:
It
serues
all
professions
,
all
qualities
,
and
conditions
,
from
the
King
to
the
Begger
.
In
summe
,
not
to
talke
too
much
of
it
,
hauing
so
little
of
it
:
I
thus
conclude
my
opinion
of
it
:
I
thinke
it
a
necessary
drosse
,
and
a
dangerous
mettall
,
the
reliefe
of
the
honest
,
and
the
ruine
of
the
wicked
.
Farewell
.
The
Spring
.
IT
is
now
Spring
:
a
Time
blest
of
the
Heauens
for
the
comfort
of
the
Earth
,
now
begins
the
Sunne
to
giue
light
vnto
the
Ayre
,
and
with
the
replexion
of
his
beames
to
warme
the
cold
earth
:
the
Beasts
of
the
woods
looke
out
into
the
plaines
,
and
the
fishes
out
of
the
déepe
run
vp
into
the
shallow
waters
,
the
bréeding
fowles
fall
to
building
of
their
nests
,
and
the
senselesse
creatures
gather
life
into
their
bodies
,
the
Birds
tune
their
throats
to
entertaine
the
Sunne
rising
,
and
the
little
flies
begin
to
flocke
in
the
ayre
:
now
Cupid
begins
no
nocke
his
Arrowes
and
sharpe
their
heads
:
and
Venus
,
if
she
be
,
will
be
knowne
what
she
is
:
Now
Pallas
and
her
Muses
try
the
Poets
in
their
Pamphlets
,
and
Diana
,
if
shee
bee
to
bée
séene
,
is
a
grace
to
her
fayrest
Nymph
:
Time
is
now
gracious
in
Nature
,
&
Nature
in
time
:
the
Ayre
wholesome
,
and
the
earth
pleasant
,
and
the
sea
not
vncomfortable
:
the
Aged
féele
a
kind
of
youth
,
&
Youth
,
the
Spirit
ful
of
life
:
it
is
the
messenger
of
many
pleasures
:
the
Courtiers
progresse
,
and
the
Farmers
profit
:
the
Labourers
Haruest
,
and
the
Beggers
Pilgrimage
.
In
summe
,
there
is
much
good
to
be
spoken
of
this
time
:
but
to
auoyd
tediousnes
,
I
will
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
in
all
that
I
can
sée
in
it
,
the
Iewell
of
time
,
and
the
Ioy
of
Nature
.
Farewell

Summer
.
IT
is
now
Summer
,
&
Zephirus
with
his
swéet
breath
cooles
the
parching
beames
of
Titan
the
leaues
of
the
trées
are
in
whisper
talkes
of
the
blessings
of
the
aire
,
while
the
Nightingale
is
tuning
her
throat
to
refresh
the
weary
spirit
of
the
Trauayler
:
Flora
now
brings
out
her
Wardrop
,
and
richly
embroydreth
her
gréene
Apron
:
the
Nymphes
of
the
Woodes
in
consort
with
the
Muses
sing
an
Aue
to
the
Morning
,
and
a
Vale
to
the
Sunnes
setting
:
the
Lambes
and
the
Rabbettes
run
at
base
in
the
sandy
Warrens
,
and
the
Plow
landes
are
couered
with
corne
:
the
stately
Hart
is
at
Layre
in
the
high
wood
,
while
the
Hare
in
a
furrow
sits
washing
of
her
face
:
The
Bull
makes
his
walke
like
a
Master
of
the
field
,
and
the
broad-headed
Oxe
beares
the
Garland
of
the
market
:
the
Angler
with
a
sly
takes
his
pleasure
with
the
fish
,
while
the
little
Merline
hath
the
Partridge
in
the
foot
:
the
Hony-dewes
perfume
the
Ayre
,
and
the
Sunny-showers
are
the
earths
comfort
:
the
Greyhound
on
the
plaine
makes
the
faire
course
:
&
the
wel-mouthed
Hound
makes
the
Musicke
of
the
woods
:
the
Battaile
of
the
field
is
now
stoutly
fought
,
and
the
proud
Rye
must
stoupe
to
the
Sickle
:
The
Carters
whistle
chéeres
his
forehorse
,
and
drinke
and
sweat
is
the
life
of
the
Labourer
:
Idle
spirits
are
banished
the
limits
of
Honour
,
while
the
studious
braine
brings
forth
his
wonder
:
the
Azure
Sky
shewes
the
Heauen
is
gracious
,
and
the
glorious
Sunne
glads
the
spirit
of
Nature
:
The
ripened
fruits
shew
the
beauty
of
the
earth
,
and
the
brightnesse
of
the
aire
the
glory
of
the
heauens
:
In
summe
,
for
the
world
of
worth
I
find
in
it
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
a
most
swéet
season
,
the
variety
of
pleasures
,
and
the
Paradise
of
loue
.
Farewell
.
Haruest
.
IT
is
now
Haruest
,
and
the
Larke
must
lead
her
yong
out
of
the
nest
:
for
the
Sithe
and
the
Sickle
wil
down
with
the
grasse
and
the
corne
:
Now
are
the
hedges
ful
of
Berries
,
&
the
highwayes
full
of
Rogues
,
and
the
lazy
Limmes
must
●●éepe
out
their
dinner
:
The
Ant
and
the
Bee
worke
for
their
winter
prouision
,
and
after
a
frost
,
the
Grashopper
is
not
séene
:
Butter
,
milke
,
and
cheese
,
are
the
Labourers
dyet
,
and
a
pot
of
good
Béere
quickens
his
spirit
.
If
there
be
no
plague
,
the
people
are
healthy
,
for
continuance
of
motion
is
a
preseruation
of
nature
:
The
fresh
of
the
morning
,
and
the
coole
of
the
Euening
are
the
times
of
Court
walkes
;
but
the
poore
traueller
treads
out
the
whole
day
:
Malt
is
now
aboue
wheat
with
a
number
of
mad
people
,
and
a
fine
shirt
is
better
then
a
Frize
Ierkin
:
Peares
and
Plummes
now
ripen
apace
,
and
being
of
a
watry
substance
,
are
cause
of
much
sicknesse
:
The
pipe
and
the
taber
now
follow
the
Fayres
,
and
they
that
haue
any
money
,
make
a
gaine
of
their
markets
.
Bucks
now
are
in
season
,
and
Partridges
are
Rowen-taild
,
&
a
good
Retriuer
is
a
Spaniell
worth
the
keeping
.
In
sum
,
it
is
a
time
of
much
worth
,
when
,
if
God
bee
well
pleased
,
the
world
will
thriue
the
better
.
And
to
conclude
,
this
is
all
that
I
will
say
of
it
;
I
hold
it
the
Heauens
Bounty
,
the
Earths
Beauty
,
and
the
Worlds
Benefit
,
Farewell
.
Winter
.
IT
is
now
Winter
,
and
Boreas
beginnes
to
fill
his
chéekes
with
breath
,
shaketh
the
tops
of
the
high
Cedars
,
and
hoyseth
the
waues
of
the
Sea
,
to
the
danger
of
the
Saylers
comfort
:
Now
is
the
Earth
nipt
at
the
heart
with
a
cold
,
and
her
Trées
are
disrobed
of
their
rich
apparell
:
there
is
a
glasse
set
vpon
the
face
of
the
Waters
,
and
the
Fishes
are
driuen
to
the
bottomes
of
the
déepe
:
The
Usurer
now
sits
lapt
in
his
furres
,
and
the
poore
makes
his
breath
,
a
fire
to
his
fingers
ends
:
Beautie
is
maskt
for
feare
of
the
ayre
,
and
youth
runnes
to
Physicke
for
Restoratiues
of
Nature
:
The
Stagge
roares
for
losse
of
his
strength
,
and
the
Flea
makes
his
Castle
in
the
wooll
of
a
blanket
:
Cards
and
Dice
now
begin
their
haruest
,
and
good
Ale
and
Sack
are
the
cause
of
ciuill
warres
:
Machiauil
and
the
Deuill
are
in
counsell
vpon
destruction
,
and
the
wicked
of
the
world
make
hast
to
hell
:
Money
is
such
a
Monopoly
,
that
hee
is
not
to
be
spoken
of
,
and
the
delay
of
suits
is
the
death
of
hope
.
In
it selfe
it
is
a
wofull
Season
,
the
punishment
of
Natures
pride
,
and
the
play
of
misery
.
Farewell
.
Ianuary
.
IT
is
now
Ianuary
,
and
Time
beginnes
to
turne
the
whéele
of
his
Reuolution
,
the
Woods
begin
to
lose
the
beauty
of
their
spreading
boughes
,
and
the
proud
Oke
must
stoop
to
the
Axe
:
the
Squirrell
now
surueyeth
the
Nut
and
the
Maple
,
and
the
Hedgehogge
rowles
vp
himselfe
like
a
football
:
an
Apple
and
a
Nutmeg
make
a
Gossips
cup
:
and
the
Ale
and
the
Fagot
are
the
Uictuallers
merchandise
:
the
Northerne
black
Dust
is
the
during
Fuell
▪
and
the
fruit
of
the
Grape
heats
the
stomake
of
the
Aged
:
Downe
beds
and
quilted
Cappes
are
now
in
the
pride
of
their
seruice
,
and
the
Cooke
and
the
Pantler
are
men
of
no
meane
office
:
the
Oxe
and
the
fat
Weather
now
furnish
the
market
,
and
the
Coney
is
so
ferreted
,
that
she
cannot
keepe
in
her
borough
:
the
Currier
&
the
Lime-rod
are
the
death
of
the
fowle
,
and
the
Faulcons
bels
ring
the
death
of
the
Mallard
:
the
trotting
gelding
makes
a
way
through
the
mire
,
and
the
Hare
&
the
Hound
put
the
Huntsman
to
his
horne
:
the
barren
Doe
subscribes
to
the
dish
,
and
the
smallest
séed
makes
sauce
to
the
greatest
flesh
:
the
dryed
grasse
is
the
horses
ordinary
,
and
the
meale
of
the
beanes
makes
him
goe
through
with
his
trauell
:
Fishermen
now
haue
a
cold
trade
,
and
trauellers
a
foule
iourney
:
the
Cook
room
now
is
not
the
worst
place
in
the
Ship
,
and
the
Shepheard
hath
a
bleake
seat
on
the
Mountaine
:
the
Blackbird
leaueth
not
a
berry
on
the
thorne
,
and
the
garden
earth
is
turned
vp
for
her
roots
:
the
water
floods
runne
ouer
the
proud
bankes
,
and
the
gaping
Dister
leaues
his
shell
in
the
streets
,
while
the
proud
Peacocke
leaps
into
the
pye
:
Muscouia
commodities
are
now
much
in
request
,
and
the
water
Spaniell
is
a
necessary
seruant
:
the
Lode
horse
to
the
mill
hath
his
full
backe
burthen
;
and
the
Thresher
in
the
barne
tryes
the
strength
of
his
flayle
:
the
Woodcocke
and
the
Pheasant
pay
their
liues
for
their
féed
,
and
the
Hare
after
a
course
makes
his
hearse
in
a
pye
:
the
shoulder
of
a
hog
is
a
shooing
horne
to
good
drink
,
and
a
cold
almes
makes
a
begger
shrug
.
To
conclude
,
I
hold
it
a
time
of
little
comfort
,
the
rich
mans
charge
,
and
the
poore
mans
misery
.
Farewell
.
February
.
IT
is
now
February
,
&
the
Sun
is
gotten
vp
a
Cockestride
of
his
climbing
,
the
Ualleyes
now
are
painted
white
,
and
the
brookes
are
full
of
water
:
the
Frog
goes
to
séeke
out
the
Paddocke
,
and
the
Crow
and
the
Rooke
begin
to
mislike
their
old
Makes
:
forward
Connies
begin
now
to
kindle
,
&
the
fat
grounds
are
not
without
Lambes
:
the
Gardiner
fals
to
sorting
of
his
seeds
,
and
the
Husbandman
falls
afresh
to
scowring
of
his
Ploughshare
:
the
Terme
trauellers
make
the
Shooe-makers
Haruest
,
and
the
Chaundlers
cheese
makes
the
chalke
walke
apace
:
The
Fishmonger
sorts
his
ware
against
Lent
:
and
a
Lambe-skinne
is
good
for
a
lame
arme
:
the
waters
now
alter
the
nature
of
their
softnes
,
and
the
soft
earth
is
made
stony
hard
:
The
Ayre
is
sharp
and
piercing
,
and
the
winds
blow
cold
:
the
Tauernes
and
the
Innes
seldome
lack
Guest●
,
&
the
Ostler
knows
how
to
gaine
by
his
Hay
:
the
hunting
Horse
is
at
the
héeles
of
the
Hound
,
while
the
ambling
Nagge
carrieth
the
Physitian
and
his
footcloth
:
the
blood
of
Youth
begins
to
spring
,
and
the
honour
of
Art
is
gotten
by
Exercise
:
The
trees
a
little
begin
to
bud
,
and
the
sap
begins
to
rise
vp
out
of
the
root
:
Physick
now
hath
work
among
weake
bodies
,
and
the
Apothecaries
drugges
are
very
gainfull
:
There
is
hope
of
a
better
time
not
farre
off
,
for
this
in
it selfe
is
little
comfortable
:
and
fo●
the
small
pleasure
that
I
find
in
it
,
I
will
thus
briefly
conclude
of
it
:
It
is
the
poore
mans
pick-purse
,
and
the
misers
cut-throat
,
the
enemy
to
pleasure
,
and
the
time
of
patience
.
Farewell
.
March
.
IT
is
now
March
,
and
the
Northerne
wind
dryeth
vp
the
Southerne
durt
:
The
tender
Lippes
are
now
maskt
for
feare
of
chopping
,
and
the
faire
hands
must
not
be
vngloued
:
now
riseth
the
Sunne
a
pretty
step
to
his
faire
height
,
and
Saint
Valentine
calls
the
birds
together
,
where
Nature
is
pleased
in
the
varietie
of
loue
:
the
Fishes
and
the
Frogs
fall
to
their
manner
of
generation
,
and
the
Adder
dyes
to
bring
forth
her
young
:
the
Ayre
is
sharpe
,
but
the
Sunne
is
comfortable
,
and
the
day
beginnes
to
lengthen
:
The
forward
Gardens
giue
the
fiue
Sallets
,
and
a
Nosegay
of
Uiolets
is
a
present
for
a
Lady
:
Now
beginneth
Nature
(
as
it
were
)
to
wake
out
of
her
sleepe
,
and
sends
the
Taueller
to
suruey
the
walkes
of
the
World
:
the
sucking
Rabbit
is
good
for
weake
stomackes
,
and
the
dyet
for
the
Rhume
doth
many
a
great
Cure
:
The
Farrier
now
is
the
horses
Physitian
,
and
the
fat
Dog
feeds
the
Faulcon
in
the
Mew
:
The
Trée
begins
to
bud
,
and
the
grasse
to
péepe
abroad
,
while
the
Thrush
with
the
Black-bird
make
a
charme
in
the
young
Springs
:
the
Milke-mayd
with
her
best
beloued
,
talke
away
wearinesse
to
the
Market
,
and
in
an
honest
meaning
,
kind
words
doe
no
hurt
:
the
Foot-ball
now
tryeth
the
legges
of
strength
,
and
merry
matches
continue
good
fellowship
:
It
is
a
time
of
much
worke
,
and
tedious
to
discourse
of
:
but
in
all
I
find
of
it
,
I
thus
conclude
in
it
:
I
hold
it
the
Seruant
of
Nature
,
and
the
Schoole-master
of
Art
:
the
hope
of
labour
,
and
the
Subiect
of
Reason
.
Farewell
.
Aprill
.
IN
is
now
April
,
and
the
Nightingale
begins
to
tune
her
throat
against
May
:
the
Sunny
showers
perfume
the
aire
,
and
the
Bées
begin
to
goe
abroad
for
honey
:
the
Dewe
,
as
in
Pearles
,
han●s
vpon
the
tops
of
the
grasse
,
while
the
Turtles
sit
billing
vpon
the
little
gréene
boughes
:
the
Trowt
begins
to
play
in
the
Brookes
,
and
the
Sammon
leaues
the
Sea
,
to
play
in
the
fresh
waters
.
The
Garden
bankes
are
full
of
gay
flowers
,
and
the
Thorne
and
the
Plumme
send
forth
their
faire
Blossomes
:
the
March
Colt
begins
to
play
,
and
the
Cosset
Lamb
is
learned
to
butt
.
The
Poets
now
make
their
studies
in
the
woods
,
&
the
Youth
of
the
Country
make
ready
for
the
Morris-dance
;
the
little
Fishes
lye
nibling
at
a
bait
,
and
the
Porpas
playes
in
the
pride
of
the
tide
:
the
shepheards
pipe
entertaines
the
Princesse
of
Arcadia
,
and
the
healthfull
Souldier
hath
a
pleasant
march
.
The
Larke
and
the
Lambe
looke
vp
at
the
Sun
,
and
the
labourer
is
abroad
by
the
dawning
of
the
day
:
Sheepes
eyes
in
Lambs
heads
,
tell
kind
hearts
strange
tales
,
while
faith
and
troth
make
the
true
Louers
knot
:
the
aged
haires
find
a
fresh
life
,
and
the
youthfull
chéeks
are
as
red
as
a
cherry
:
It
were
a
world
to
set
downe
the
worth
of
this
moneth
:
But
in
summe
,
I
thus
conclude
,
I
hold
it
the
Heauens
blessing
,
and
the
Earths
comfort
.
Farewell
.
May.
IT
is
now
May
,
and
the
swéetnesse
of
the
Aire
refresheth
euery
spirit
:
the
sunny
beames
bring
forth
faire
Blossomes
,
and
the
dripping
Clouds
water
Floraes
great
garden
:
the
male
Déere
puts
out
the
Ueluet
head
,
and
the
pagged
Doe
is
neere
her
fawning
:
The
Sparhawke
now
is
drawne
out
of
the
mew
,
and
the
Fowler
makes
ready
his
whistle
for
the
Quaile
:
the
Larke
sets
the
morning
watch
,
and
the
euening
,
the
Nightingale
:
the
Barges
like
Bowers
,
keep
the
streams
of
the
swéet
Riuers
,
and
the
Mackrell
with
the
Shad
are
taken
prisoners
in
the
Sea
:
the
tall
young
Oke
is
cut
downe
for
the
Maypole
:
the
Sithe
and
the
Sickle
are
the
Mowers
furniture
,
and
fayre
weather
makes
the
Labourer
merry
:
the
Physitian
now
prescribes
the
cold
Whey
,
and
the
Apothecary
gathers
the
dew
for
a
medicine
:
Butter
&
Sage
make
the
wholsome
breakf●st
,
but
fresh
chéese
and
creame
are
meat
for
a
dainty
mouth
▪
and
the
Strawbery
and
the
Pescod
want
no
price
in
the
market
:
the
Chicken
and
the
Ducke
are
fatned
for
the
market
▪
and
many
a
Goflin
neuer
liues
to
be
a
Goose.
It
is
the
moneth
wherein
Nature
hath
her
full
of
mirth
,
and
the
Senses
are
filled
with
delights
.
I
conclude
,
It
is
from
the
Heauens
a
Grace
,
&
to
the
Earth
a
Gladnesse
.
Farewell
.
Iune
.
IT
is
now
Iune
,
and
the
Hay-makers
are
mustered
to
make
an
army
for
the
field
,
where
not
alwayes
in
order
,
they
march
vnder
the
Bagge
and
the
Bottle
,
when
betwixt
the
Forke
and
the
Rake
,
there
is
séene
great
force
of
armes
:
Now
doth
the
broad
Oke
comfort
the
weary
Laborer
,
while
vnder
his
shady
Boughes
he
sits
singing
to
his
bread
and
cheese
:
the
●ay-cocke
is
the
Poore
mans
Lodging
,
and
the
fresh
Riuer
is
his
gracious
Neighbour
:
Now
the
Faulcon
and
the
Tassell
try
their
wings
at
the
Partridge
,
and
the
fat
Bucke
fils
the
great
pasty
:
the
trees
are
all
in
their
rich
aray
:
but
the
séely
Shéep
is
turned
out
of
his
coat
:
the
Roses
and
swéet
Herbes
put
the
Distiller
to
his
cunning
,
while
the
gréene
apples
on
the
trée
are
ready
for
the
great
bellied
wiues
:
Now
begins
the
Hare
to
gather
vp
her
heeles
,
and
the
Foxe
lookes
about
him
,
for
feare
of
the
Hound
:
the
Hooke
and
the
Sickle
are
making
ready
for
haruest
:
the
Medow
grounds
gape
for
raine
,
and
the
Corne
in
the
eare
begins
to
harden
:
the
little
Lads
make
Pipes
of
the
straw
,
and
they
that
cannot
dance
,
will
yet
bee
hopping
:
the
Ayre
now
groweth
somewhat
warme
,
and
the
coole
winds
are
very
comfortable
:
the
Sayler
now
makes
merry
passage
,
and
the
nimble
Foot-man
runnes
with
pleasure
:
In
briefe
,
I
thus
conclude
,
I
hold
it
a
sweet
season
,
the
senses
perfume
,
and
the
spirits
comfort
.
Farewell
.
Iuly
.
IT
is
now
Iuly
,
and
the
Sunne
is
gotten
vp
to
his
height
,
whose
heat
parcheth
the
earth
,
and
burnes
vp
the
grasse
on
the
mountaines
.
Now
begins
the
Canon
of
heauen
to
rattle
,
and
when
the
fire
is
put
to
the
charge
,
it
breaketh
out
among
the
Cloudes
:
the
stones
of
congealed
water
cut
off
the
eares
of
the
Corne
:
and
the
blacke
stormes
affright
the
faint-hearted
:
the
Stag
and
the
Bucke
are
now
in
pride
of
their
time
,
and
the
hardnesse
of
their
heads
makes
them
fit
for
the
Horner
:
Now
hath
the
Sparhawke
the
Partridge
in
the
foot
,
and
the
Ferret
doth
tickle
the
Cony
in
the
borough
.
Now
doeth
the
Farmer
make
ready
his
teame
,
and
the
Carter
with
his
whip
,
hath
no
small
pride
in
his
Whistle
?
Now
doe
the
Reapers
try
their
backs
and
their
Armes
,
and
the
lusty
Youthes
pitch
the
sheafes
into
the
Cart
,
The
old
Partridge
calles
her
Couey
in
the
morning
,
and
in
the
euening
,
the
Shepheard
fals
to
folding
of
his
flocke
:
the
Sparrowes
make
a
charme
vpon
the
gréene
Bushes
,
till
the
Fowler
come
and
take
them
by
the
dozens
:
the
Smelt
now
begins
to
be
in
season
,
and
the
Lamprey
out
of
the
Riuer
leapes
into
a
Pye
:
the
Souldier
now
hath
a
hot
march
,
and
the
Lawyer
sweats
in
his
l●ned
Gowne
:
The
Pedler
now
makes
a
long
walke
,
and
the
Aqua
vitae
Bottle
sets
his
face
on
a
fiery
heat
:
In
summe
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
,
I
hold
it
a
profitable
season
,
the
Labourers
gaine
,
and
the
rich
mans
wealth
.
Farewell

August
.
IT
is
now
August
,
and
the
Sunne
is
somewhat
towards
his
declination
,
yet
such
is
his
heat
as
hardeneth
the
soft
clay
,
dries
vp
the
standing
ponds
,
wythereth
the
sappy
leaues
,
and
scorcheth
the
skin
of
the
naked
:
now
beginne
the
Gleaners
to
follow
the
Corne
Cart
,
and
a
little
bread
to
a
great
deale
of
drinke
makes
the
Trauailers
dinner
:
the
Melowne
and
the
Cucumber
is
now
in
request
:
and
Oyle
and
vineger
giue
attendance
on
the
Sallet
hearbes
:
the
Alehouse
is
more
frequented
then
the
Tauerne
,
and
a
fresh
Riuer
is
more
comfortable
then
a
fiery
Furnace
:
the
Bathe
is
now
much
visited
by
diseased
bodies
,
and
in
the
fayre
Riuers
,
swimming
is
a
swéet
exercise
:
the
Bow
and
the
Bowle
pirke
many
a
purse
,
and
the
Cockes
with
their
héeles
spurne
away
many
a
mans
wealth
:
The
Pipe
and
the
Taber
is
now
lustily
set
on
worke
,
and
the
Lad
and
the
Lasse
will
haue
no
lead
on
their
héeles
:
the
new
Wheat
makes
the
Gossips
Cake
,
and
the
Bride
Cup
is
caried
aboue
the
heads
of
the
whole
Parish
:
the
Fo●
ne●ty
pot
welcomes
home
the
Haruest
cart
,
and
the
Garland
of
Flowers
crownes
the
Captaine
of
the
Reapers
.
Oh
,
't
is
the
mercy
time
,
wherein
honest
Neighbours
make
good
chéere
,
and
God
is
glorified
in
his
blessings
on
the
earth
.
In
summe
,
for
that
I
find
,
I
thus
conclude
,
I
hold
it
the
worlds
welfare
,
and
the
earths
Warming-p●●
.
Farewell

September
.
IT
is
now
September
,
and
the
Sunne
begins
to
fall
much
from
his
height
,
the
medowes
are
left
bare
,
by
the
mouthes
of
hungry
Cattell
,
and
the
Hogges
are
turned
into
the
Corne
fields
:
the
windes
begin
to
knocke
the
Apples
heads
together
on
the
trees
,
and
the
fallings
are
gathered
to
fill
the
Pyes
for
the
Houshold
:
the
Saylers
fall
to
worke
to
get
afore
the
wind●
,
and
if
they
spy
a
storme
,
it
puts
them
to
prayer
:
the
Souldier
now
begins
to
shrug
at
the
weather
,
and
the
Campe
dissolued
,
the
Companies
are
put
to
Garison
:
the
Lawyer
now
begins
his
Haruest
,
and
the
Client
p●yes
for
words
by
waight
:
the
Innes
now
begin
to
prouide
for
ghests
,
and
the
night
●aters
in
the
stable
,
pinch
the
Trauailer
in
his
bed
:
Paper
,
pen
,
and
inke
are
much
in
request
,
and
the
quarter
Sessions
take
order
with
the
way-layers
:
C●ales
and
wood
make
toward
the
Chimney
,
and
Ale
and
Sacke
are
in
account
with
good
fellowes
:
the
Butcher
now
knocks
downe
the
great
Béeues
,
and
the
Poulters
feathers
make
toward
the
Upholster
:
Walflet
Oysters
are
the
Fishwiues
wealth
,
and
Pippins
fine
are
the
Costermongers
rich
merchandise
:
the
flayle
and
the
fan
fall
to
worke
in
the
Barne
,
and
the
Corne
market
is
full
of
the
Bakers
:
the
Porkets
now
are
driuen
to
the
Woods
,
and
the
home-fed
Pigges
make
porke
for
the
market
.
In
briefe
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
,
I
hold
it
the
Winters
forewarning
,
and
the
Summers
farewell
.
Adieu
.
October
.
IT
is
now
October
,
and
the
lofty
windes
make
bare
the
trées
of
their
leaues
,
while
the
hogs
in
the
Woods
grow
fat
with
the
falne
Acorns
:
the
forward
Déere
begin
to
goe
to
rut
,
and
the
barren
Doe
groweth
good
meat
:
the
Basket
makers
now
gather
their
rods
,
and
the
fishers
lay
their
leapes
in
the
déepe
:
the
loade
horses
goe
apace
to
the
Mill
,
and
the
Meal-market
is
seldome
without
people
:
the
Hare
on
the
hill
makes
the
Greyhound
a
faire
course
&
the
Foxe
in
the
woods
cals
the
Hounds
to
a
full
cry
:
the
multitude
of
people
raiseth
the
price
of
wares
,
and
the
smoothe
tongue
will
sell
much
:
the
Saylor
now
bestirreth
his
stumps
,
while
the
Merchant
liueth
in
feare
of
the
weather
:
the
great
feasts
are
now
at
hand
for
the
City
,
but
the
poore
must
not
beg
for
feare
of
the
stockes
:
a
fire
and
a
pai●e
of
Cards
kéepe
the
ghests
in
the
Ordinary
,
and
Tobacco
is
held
very
precious
for
the
Rhewme
:
The
Coaches
now
begin
to
rattle
in
the
stréet
:
but
the
cry
of
the
poore
is
vnpleasing
to
the
rich
:
Muffes
and
Cuffes
are
now
in
request
,
and
the
shuttel-Cocke
with
the
Battel-doore
is
a
pretty
house-exercise
:
Tennis
&
Baloune
are
sports
of
some
charge
,
and
a
quicke
bandy
is
the
Court-kéepers
commodity
:
dancing
an●●encing
are
now
in
some
vse
,
and
kind
hearts
and
true
Louers
lye
close
,
to
kéepe
off
cold
:
the
Titmouse
now
kéepes
in
the
hollow
trée
,
and
the
black
bird
sits
close
in
the
bottome
of
a
hedge
:
In
briefe
,
for
the
little
pleasure
I
find
in
it
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
a
Messenger
of
ill
newes
,
and
a
second
seruice
to
a
cold
dinner
.
Farewell
.
Nouember
.
IT
is
now
Nouember
,
and
according
to
the
old
Prouerbe
,
Let
the
Thresher
take
his
flayle
,
and
the
ship
no
more
sayle
:
for
the
high
winds
and
the
rough
seas
will
try
the
ribs
of
the
Shippe
,
and
the
hearts
of
the
Sailers
:
Now
come
the
Countrey
people
all
wet
to
the
Market
,
and
the
toyling
Carriers
are
pittifully
moyled
:
The
yong
Herne
and
the
Shoulerd
are
now
fat
for
the
great
Feast
,
and
the
Wood
cocke
begins
to
make
toward
the
Cockeshoot
:
the
Warriners
now
beginne
to
plie
their
haruest
,
and
the
Butcher
,
after
a
good
bargaine
drinks
a
health
to
the
Grasier
:
the
Cooke
and
the
Comfitmaker
,
make
ready
for
Christmas
,
and
the
Minstrels
in
the
Countrey
,
beat
their
boyes
for
false
fingring
:
Schollers
before
breakefast
haue
a
cold
stomacke
to
their
bookes
,
and
a
Master
without
Art
is
fit
for
an
A
B.
C.
A
red
herring
and
a
cup
of
Sacke
,
make
warre
in
a
weake
stomacke
,
and
the
poore
mans
fast
,
is
better
then
the
Gluttons
surfet
:
Trenchers
and
dishes
are
now
necessary
seruants
,
and
a
locke
to
the
Cubboord
kéepes
a
bit
for
a
néede
:
Now
beginnes
the
Goshauke
to
wéede
the
wood
of
the
Phesant
,
and
the
Mallard
loues
not
to
heare
the
belles
of
the
Faulcon
:
The
winds
now
are
cold
,
and
the
Ayre
chill
,
and
the
poore
die
through
want
of
Charitie
:
Butter
and
Chéese
beginne
to
rayse
their
prices
,
and
Kitchen
stuffe
is
a
commoditie
,
that
euery
man
is
not
acquainted
with
.
In
summe
,
with
a
conceit
of
the
chilling
cold
of
it
,
I
thus
conclude
in
it
:
I
hold
it
the
discomfort
of
Nature
,
and
Reasons
patience
.
Farewell
.
December
.
IT
is
now
December
,
&
hée
that
walkes
the
stréets
,
shall
find
durt
on
his
shooes
,
Except
hée
goe
all
in
bootes
:
Now
doth
the
Lawyer
make
an
end
of
his
haruest
,
and
the
Client
of
his
purse
:
Now
Capons
and
Hennes
,
beside
Turkies
,
Geese
and
Duckes
,
besides
Béefe
and
Mutton
,
must
all
die
for
the
great
feast
,
for
in
twelue
dayes
a
multitude
of
people
will
not
bée
fed
with
a
little
:
Now
plummes
and
spice
,
Sugar
and
Honey
,
square
it
among
pies
and
broth
,
and
Gossip
I
drinke
to
you
,
and
you
are
welcome
,
and
I
thanke
you
,
and
how
doe
you
,
and
I
pray
you
bée
merrie
:
Now
are
the
Taylors
and
the
Tiremakers
full
of
worke
against
the
Holidayes
,
and
Musicke
now
must
bée
in
tune
,
or
else
neuer
:
the
youth
must
dance
and
sing
,
and
the
aged
sit
by
the
fire
.
It
is
the
Law
of
Nature
,
and
no
Contradiction
in
reason
:
The
Asse
that
hath
borne
all
the
yeare
,
must
now
take
a
little
rest
,
and
the
leane
Oxe
must
féed
till
hée
bée
fat
:
The
Footman
now
shall
haue
many
a
foule
step
,
and
the
Ostler
shall
haue
worke
enough
about
the
héeles
of
the
Horses
,
while
the
Tapster
,
if
hée
take
not
heed
,
will
lie
drunke
in
the
Seller
:
The
prices
of
meat
will
rise
apace
,
and
the
apparell
of
the
proud
will
make
the
Taylor
rich
:
Dice
and
Cardes
,
will
benefit
the
Butler
:
And
if
the
Cooke
doe
not
lacke
wit
,
hée
will
swéetly
licke
his
fingers
:
Starchers
and
Launderers
will
haue
their
hands
full
of
worke
,
and
Periwigs
and
painting
wil
not
bee
a
little
set
by
,
strange
stuffes
will
bee
well
sold
,
strange
tales
well
told
,
strange
sights
much
sought
,
strange
things
much
bought
,
and
what
else
as
fals
out
.
To
conclude
,
I
hold
it
the
costly
Purueyour
of
Excesse
,
and
the
after
breeder
of
necessitie
,
the
practice
of
Folly
,
and
the
Purgatory
of
Reason
.
Farewell
.
Christmas
day
.
IT
is
now
Christmas
,
and
not
a
Cup
of
drinke
must
passe
without
a
Caroll
,
the
Beasts
,
Fowle
and
Fish
,
come
to
a
generall
execution
,
and
the
Corne
is
ground
to
dust
for
the
Bakehouse
,
and
the
Pastry
:
Cards
and
Dice
purge
many
a
purse
,
and
the
Youth
shew
their
agility
in
shooing
of
the
wild
Mare
:
now
good
cheere
and
welcome
,
and
God
be
with
you
,
and
I
thanke
you
:
and
against
the
new
yeare
,
prouide
for
the
presents
:
the
Lord
of
Mis-rule
is
no
meane
man
for
his
time
,
and
the
ghests
of
the
high
Table
must
lacke
no
Wine
:
the
lusty
bloods
must
looke
about
them
like
men
,
and
piping
and
dauncing
puts
away
much
melancholy
:
stolne
Uenison
is
swéet
,
and
a
fat
Coney
is
worth
money
:
Pit-falles
are
now
set
for
small
Birdes
,
and
a
Woodcocke
hangs
himselfe
in
a
gynne
:
a
good
fire
heats
all
the
house
,
and
a
full
Almes-basket
makes
the
Beggers
Prayers
:
the
Maskers
and
the
Mummers
make
the
merry
sport
:
but
if
they
lose
their
money
,
their
Drumme
goes
dead
:
Swearers
and
Swaggerers
are
sent
away
to
the
Ale-house
,
and
vnruly
Wenches
goe
in
danger
of
Iudgement
:
Musicians
now
make
their
Instruments
speake
out
,
and
a
good
song
is
worth
the
hearing
.
In
summe
,
it
is
a
holy
time
,
a
duty
in
Christians
,
for
the
remembrance
of
Christ
,
and
custome
among
friends
,
for
the
maintenance
of
good
fellowship
:
In
briefe
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
a
memory
of
the
Heauens
Loue
,
and
the
worlds
peace
,
the
myrth
of
the
honest
,
and
the
meeting
of
the
friendly
.
Farewell
.
Lent
.
IT
is
now
Lent
,
and
the
poore
Stockfish
is
sore
beaten
for
his
stubbornnesse
:
the
Herring
dominiers
like
a
Lord
of
great
Seruice
,
and
the
fruit
of
the
Dairy
makes
a
hungry
Feast
:
Fasting
and
mourning
is
the
life
of
the
poore
,
and
the
Dogges
grow
leane
,
with
the
lacke
of
bones
,
while
the
Prisoners
heart
is
nipt
with
penury
:
the
Beasts
of
the
Forrests
haue
a
bare
feed
,
and
the
hard
crusts
try
the
téeth
of
the
Begger
:
The
Byrd
hath
a
little
shelter
in
the
Bush
,
and
a
bitter
frost
makes
a
backward
Spring
:
The
Sunne
giues
but
little
warmth
,
and
the
March
wind
makes
the
Ayre
cold
:
The
Fisher-men
now
are
the
Rakers
of
the
Sea
,
and
the
Oyster
gapes
,
to
catch
hold
of
the
Crab
:
Solitarinesse
and
Melancholy
bréed
the
hurt
of
Nature
,
and
the
nakednesse
of
the
Earth
is
the
eyes
discomfort
:
Idle
people
sit
picking
of
Sallets
,
and
necessity
of
exercise
is
an
enemy
to
study
:
the
winds
grow
dangerous
to
the
Sayler
,
and
the
Rockes
are
the
ruine
of
the
Merchant
:
the
Sentinell
now
keeps
a
cold
watch
,
and
the
Sconce
is
nothing
comfortable
to
the
Souldier
:
the
shepheard
hath
little
pleasure
in
his
Pipe
,
and
Age
hath
but
a
dead
feeling
in
loue
:
the
Colt
hath
a
ragged
coat
,
and
the
halfe
mewed
head
disgraceth
the
Déere
:
the
Faulcons
wing
is
but
young
feathered
,
and
the
déepe
f●llow
wearies
the
Huntsman
:
there
is
nothing
pleasing
but
hope
,
that
the
dayes
will
lengthen
and
time
will
be
more
comfortable
.
I
conclude
,
in
it selfe
,
it
is
an
vncomfortable
season
,
the
Heauens
frown
,
and
the
Earths
punishment
.
Farewell
.
Good
Friday
.
IT
is
now
Good
Friday
,
and
a
generall
Fast
must
be
kept
among
all
Christians
,
in
remembrance
of
Christs
Passion
:
Flesh
and
Fish
must
bee
vanished
all
stomackes
,
strong
or
weake
:
Now
beginnes
the
Farewell
to
thin
fare
,
and
the
Fishmongers
may
shut
vp
their
shops
till
the
Holy-dayes
be
past
:
the
Butchers
now
must
wash
their
Boords
,
make
cleane
their
Aprons
,
sharpen
their
kniues
,
and
sort
their
prickes
,
and
cut
out
their
meat
for
Easter
Eue
market
:
Now
must
the
Poulters
make
ready
their
Rabbet●
and
their
Fowle
,
the
Cookes
haue
their
Ouens
cleane
,
and
all
for
Pies
and
Tarts
against
the
merry
Feast
:
now
the
Maids
bestir
them
about
their
houses
,
the
Launders
about
their
Linnen
,
the
Taylors
about
Apparell
,
and
all
for
this
holy
time
:
Now
young
Lambs
,
young
Rabbets
,
and
young
Chickens
dye
for
fine
appetites
,
and
now
the
Minstrell
tunes
his
Instruments
,
to
haue
them
ready
for
the
yong
people
:
but
with
the
aged
and
the
religious
,
there
is
nothing
but
sorrow
and
mourning
,
confession
,
contrition
,
and
absolution
,
and
I
know
not
what
:
few
that
are
merry
,
but
children
that
breake
vp
schoole
,
and
wenches
that
are
vpon
the
mariage
.
In
summe
,
it
is
such
an
odde
day
by
it selfe
,
that
I
will
onely
make
this
conclusion
of
it
:
It
is
the
Bridle
of
Nature
,
and
the
Examiner
of
Reason
.
Farewell
.
Easter
day
.
IT
is
now
Easter
,
and
Iacke
of
Lent
is
turned
out
of
doores
:
the
Fishermen
now
hang
vp
their
nets
to
dry
,
while
the
Calfe
and
the
Lambe
walke
toward
the
Kitchin
and
the
Pastry
:
The
veluet
heads
of
the
Forrests
fall
at
the
loose
of
the
Crosse-bow
:
the
Samman
Trowt
playes
with
the
Fly
,
and
the
March
Rabbit
runnes
dead
into
the
dish
:
the
Indian
commodities
pay
the
Merchants
aduenture
:
and
Barbary
Sugar
puts
Honey
out
of
countenance
:
the
holy
feast
is
kept
for
the
faithfull
,
and
a
knowne
Iew
hath
no
place
among
Christians
:
the
Earth
now
beginnes
to
paint
her
vpper
garment
,
and
the
trées
put
out
their
young
buds
,
the
little
Kids
chew
their
Cuds
,
and
the
Swallow
féeds
on
the
Flyes
in
the
Ayre
:
the
Storke
clenseth
the
Brookes
of
the
Frogges
,
and
the
Sparhawke
prepares
her
wing
for
the
Partridge
:
the
little
Fawne
is
stolne
from
the
Doe
,
&
the
male
Déere
beginne
to
heard
:
the
spirit
of
Youth
is
inclined
to
mirth
,
and
the
conscionable
Scholler
will
not
breake
a
holy-day
:
the
Minstrell
cals
the
Maid
from
her
dinner
,
and
the
Louers
eyes
doe
troule
like
Tennis
balls
.
There
is
mirth
and
ioy
,
when
there
is
health
and
liberty
:
and
he
that
hath
money
,
will
be
no
meane
man
in
his
mansion
:
the
Ayre
is
wholsome
,
and
the
Skye
comfortable
,
the
Flowers
odoriferous
,
and
the
Fruits
pleasant
:
I
conclude
,
it
is
a
day
of
much
delightfulnesse
:
the
Sunnes
dancing
day
,
and
the
Earths
Holy-day
.
Farewell
.
Morning
.
IT
is
now
Morning
,
and
Time
hath
woond
vp
the
Whéeles
of
his
day
Watch
,
while
the
Larke
,
the
Sunnes
Trumpet
,
calls
the
Labourer
to
his
worke
:
there
is
ioy
and
comfort
through
the
whole
world
,
that
the
spirits
of
life
are
awaked
out
of
their
dead
sléepe
:
It
is
the
blessed
time
of
reason
,
in
which
the
best
things
are
begunne
,
while
Nature
goes
to
experience
for
the
better
perfection
of
her
businesse
:
The
Sunne
now
beginnes
to
draw
open
the
Curtaine
of
his
Pauilion
,
and
with
the
heat
of
his
Beames
drawes
vp
the
vnwholesome
mists
in
the
Ayre
:
the
Mother
Earth
is
recouered
of
her
cold
sicknesse
,
and
sends
forth
her
fayre
flowers
to
perfume
the
infected
ayre
:
now
the
Sorceresse
with
her
magicke
Art
puts
her
charmes
to
silence
,
and
the
Birds
of
the
woods
make
musicke
to
the
poore
traueller
.
Now
begin
the
wits
of
the
wise
,
and
the
limbes
of
strength
to
compasse
the
world
,
and
make
Art
honorable
:
Theeues
now
are
either
caued
or
imprisoned
,
and
knowledge
of
comfort
puts
care
to
a
Non
plus
.
The
beasts
of
the
forrests
vse
the
silence
of
feare
,
and
the
Wolfe
like
a
Dog
dares
not
looke
out
of
his
denne
:
the
Wormes
into
the
earth
,
and
the
Toads
into
the
Waters
,
flye
for
feare
of
their
heads
:
This
is
a
time
that
I
ioy
in
,
for
I
think
no
time
lost
,
but
in
sléepe
:
and
now
haue
imaginations
their
best
meanes
to
attire
themselues
in
the
golden
liuerie
of
their
best
graces
;
to
which
the
night
is
at
no
time
by
depriuation
of
action
.
I
conclude
,
it
is
in
it selfe
a
blessed
season
,
a
dispersing
of
the
first
darknesse
,
and
the
Diall
of
Alexander
.
Farewell
.
One
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
first
houre
,
and
Time
is
,
as
it
were
,
stepping
out
of
darknesse
,
and
stealing
towards
the
day
:
the
Cocke
cals
to
his
●enne
,
and
bids
her
beware
of
the
Foxe
,
and
the
Watch
hauing
walkt
the
stréets
,
take
a
nap
vpon
a
stall
:
the
Bell-man
cals
to
the
maids
to
looke
to
their
lockes
,
their
fire
,
and
their
light
,
and
the
child
in
the
cradle
cals
to
the
Nurse
for
a
Dug
:
the
Cat
sits
watching
behind
the
Cupboord
for
a
Mouse
,
and
the
Flea
sucks
on
swéet
flesh
,
till
he
is
ready
to
burst
with
the
blood
:
the
spirits
of
the
studious
start
out
of
their
dreames
,
and
if
they
cannot
fall
asléepe
againe
,
then
to
the
Booke
and
the
waxe
Candle
:
the
Dog
at
the
doore
frayes
the
Théefe
from
the
house
,
and
the
Théefe
within
the
house
may
hap
to
be
about
his
businesse
.
In
some
places
Bels
are
rung
to
certaine
orders
:
but
the
quiet
sléeper
neuer
tels
the
Clocke
:
not
to
dwell
too
long
vpon
it
,
I
hold
it
the
farewell
of
the
night
,
and
the
forerunner
to
the
day
,
the
spirits
watch
,
and
Reasons
workemaster
.
Farewell
.
Two
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
second
houre
,
and
the
point
of
the
Diall
hath
stept
ouer
the
first
stroake
,
and
now
Time
beginnes
to
draw
backe
the
Curtaine
of
the
night
:
the
Cocke
againe
cals
to
his
Henne
,
and
the
Watch
beginne
to
buss●e
toward
their
discharge
:
The
Bell-man
hath
made
a
great
part
of
his
walke
,
and
the
Nurse
beginnes
to
huggle
the
child
to
the
Dugge
:
the
Cat
sits
playing
with
the
Mouse
which
she
hath
catched
,
and
the
Dog
with
his
barking
wakes
the
seruants
of
the
house
:
the
studious
now
are
neere
vpon
waking
,
and
the
théefe
will
be
gone
,
for
feare
of
being
taken
:
The
Forresters
now
be
about
their
walkes
,
and
yet
stealers
sometim●
cozen
the
Kéepers
:
Warreners
now
beginne
to
draw
homeward
,
and
far
dwellers
from
the
towne
,
will
be
on
the
way
to
the
market
;
The
Souldier
now
lookes
towards
the
Court
de
Garde
,
and
the
Corporall
takes
care
for
the
reliefe
of
the
Watch
:
the
earnest
Scholler
will
be
now
at
his
●ooke
,
and
the
thrifty
Husbandman
will
rowse
towards
his
rising
:
the
Seaman
will
now
looke
out
for
light
,
and
if
the
wind
be
faire
,
hee
cals
for
a
Can
of
●ee●e
:
the
fishermen
now
take
the
benefit
of
the
tyde
,
and
he
that
bobs
for
Eeles
,
will
not
be
without
Worms
.
In
summe
,
I
hold
it
much
of
the
nature
of
the
first
houre
,
but
somewhat
better
.
And
to
conclude
,
I
thinke
it
the
enemy
of
Sleepe
,
and
the
entrance
to
Exercise
.
Farewell
.
Three
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
third
houre
,
and
the
Windowes
of
Heauen
beginne
to
open
,
and
the
Sunne
beginnes
to
colour
the
Clouds
in
the
Sky
,
before
he
shew
his
face
to
the
World
:
Now
are
the
spirits
of
life
,
as
it
were
,
risen
out
of
death
:
the
Cocke
cals
the
seruants
to
their
dayes
work
,
and
the
grasse
horses
are
fetcht
from
the
Pastures
:
the
Milke-maids
begin
to
looke
toward
their
dayry
,
and
the
good
Huswife
beginnes
to
looke
about
the
house
:
the
Porrage
pot
is
on
for
the
seruants
breakfast
,
and
hungry
stomackes
will
soone
bee
ready
for
their
victuall
:
the
Sparrow
beginnes
to
chirpe
about
the
house
,
and
the
Birds
in
the
bushes
will
bid
them
welcome
to
the
field
:
the
Shepheard
sets
on
his
Pitch
on
the
fire
,
and
fills
his
Tar-pot
ready
for
his
flocke
:
the
Wheele
and
the
Reele
beginne
to
be
set
ready
,
and
a
merry
song
makes
the
worke
seeme
easie
:
the
Plough-man
falls
to
harnesse
his
horses
,
and
the
●hrasher
beginnes
to
looke
toward
the
barne
:
the
Scholler
that
loues
learning
,
will
be
hard
at
his
Booke
,
and
the
Labourer
by
great
,
will
be
walking
toward
his
worke
.
In
briefe
,
it
is
a
parcell
of
time
,
to
good
purpose
,
the
exercise
of
Nature
,
and
the
entrance
into
Art
.
Farewell
.
Foure
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
fourth
houre
,
and
the
Sunne
beginnes
to
send
her
beames
abroad
,
whose
glimmering
brightnesse
no
eye
can
behold
:
Now
crowes
the
Cocke
lustily
,
and
claps
his
wings
for
ioy
of
the
light
,
and
with
his
Hennes
leaps
lightly
from
his
Roust
:
Now
are
the
Horses
at
their
Chaffe
and
Prouender
:
the
seruants
at
breakfast
,
the
Milk-maid
gone
to
the
field
,
and
the
Spinner
at
the
Wheele
:
and
the
Shepheard
with
his
Dog
are
going
toward
the
Fold
:
Now
the
Beggers
rouse
them
out
of
the
Hedges
,
and
begin
their
morning
craft
;
but
if
the
Constable
come
,
beware
the
stocks
:
The
Birds
now
beginne
to
flocke
,
and
the
Sparhawke
beginnes
to
prey
for
his
Ayry
:
The
Thresher
beginnes
to
stretch
his
long
armes
,
and
the
thriuing
Labourer
will
fall
hard
to
his
worke
:
the
quicke
witted
braine
will
be
quoting
of
places
,
and
the
cunning
work-man
will
bee
trying
of
his
skill
:
the
Hounds
begin
to
bee
coupled
for
the
chase
,
and
the
Spaniels
follow
the
Faulconer
to
the
field
:
Trauellers
beginne
to
looke
toward
the
Stable
,
where
an
honest
Hostler
is
worthy
his
reward
:
the
Souldier
now
is
vpon
discharge
of
his
Watch
,
and
the
Captaine
with
his
company
may
take
as
good
rest
as
they
can
:
In
summe
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
the
Messenger
of
Action
,
and
the
Watch
of
Reason
.
Farewell
.
Fiue
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
now
fiue
of
the
Clocke
,
and
the
Sunne
is
going
apace
vpon
his
iourney
:
and
fie
sluggards
,
who
would
be
asleepe
?
The
Bels
ring
to
Prayer
,
and
the
streéts
are
full
of
people
,
and
the
high-wayes
are
stored
with
Trauellers
:
the
Schollers
are
vp
and
going
to
schoole
,
and
the
Rods
are
ready
for
the
Truants
correction
:
the
Maids
are
at
milking
,
and
the
seruants
at
Plough
,
and
the
Wheele
goes
merrily
,
while
the
Mistresse
is
by
:
the
Capons
and
the
Chickens
must
bee
serued
without
doore
,
and
the
Hogges
cry
till
they
haue
their
swill
:
the
Shepheard
is
almost
gotten
to
his
Fold
,
and
the
Heard
beginnes
to
blow
his
horne
through
the
Towne
.
The
blind
Fidler
is
vp
with
his
dance
and
his
song
,
and
the
Alehouse
doore
is
vnlocked
for
good
fellowes
:
the
hounds
begin
to
find
after
the
Hare
,
and
horse
and
foot
follow
after
the
cry
:
the
Traueller
now
is
well
on
his
way
,
and
if
the
weather
be
faire
,
he
walkes
with
the
better
chéere
:
the
Carter
merrily
whistles
to
his
horse
,
and
the
Boy
with
his
Sling
casts
stones
at
the
Crowes
:
the
Lawyer
now
begins
to
look
on
his
Case
,
and
if
he
giue
good
counsell
,
he
is
worthy
of
his
Fee
:
In
briefe
,
not
to
stay
to●
long
vpon
it
,
I
hold
it
the
necessity
of
Labour
,
and
the
note
of
Profit
.
Farewell

Sixe
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
sixt
houre
,
the
swéet
time
of
the
Morning
,
and
the
Sunne
at
euery
window
calls
the
Sléepers
from
their
beds
:
the
Marygold
beginnes
to
open
her
leaues
,
&
the
Dew
on
the
ground
doth
swéeten
the
Ayre
:
the
Faulconers
now
méet
with
many
a
faire
flight
,
and
the
Hare
and
the
Hounds
haue
made
the
Huntsman
good
sport
:
the
shoppes
in
the
City
begin
to
shew
their
wares
,
and
the
market
people
haue
taken
their
places
:
The
Schollers
now
haue
their
Fourmes
,
and
whosoeuer
cannot
say
his
Lesson
,
must
presently
looke
for
Absolution
:
The
Forester
now
is
drawing
home
to
his
Lodge
,
and
if
his
Déere
be
gone
,
hée
may
draw
after
cold
scent
:
Now
begins
the
curst
Mistresse
to
put
her
Girles
to
their
taskes
,
and
a
laz
▪
Hylding
will
doe
hurt
among
good
Workers
:
Now
the
Mower
falles
to
whetting
of
his
Sythe
,
and
the
Beaters
of
Hempe
giue
a
hoh
to
euery
blow
:
The
Ale
Knight
is
at
his
Cup
ere
hée
can
well
see
his
drinke
,
and
the
begger
is
as
nimble
toung'd
,
as
if
he
had
béene

all
day
:
the
Fishermen
now
are
at
the
Craier
for
their
Oysters
,
and
they
will
neuer
lyn
crying
,
while
they
haue
one
in
their
basket
:
In
summe
,
not
to
be
tedious
,
I
hold
it
,
the
Sluggards
shame
,
and
the
Labourers
praise
.
Farewell

Seuen

IT
is
now
the
seuenth

begins
to
set
the

hard
to
worke
:
The
Milke-maides
in
their
Dayry
to
their
Butter
and
their
Chéese
,
the
Ploughmen
to
their
Ploughes
and

the

to

the
Merchants
to
their

,
the
Shop-men
to
What

and
euery

Oh
t
is
a

to

how
life
leapes
about
the

of

none
but
findes
something

:
the
Wise

to

the

to
labour
:
the
Fantasticke
,
to
make
loue
:
the
Poet
,
to
make
Uerses
:
the
Player
,
to

and
the
Musitian
to

euery

▪
and
according
to
his

,
sets
himself
to
some
exercise
,
either
of
the

or

And
therefore
since
it
is
a
time
of
much
labour
,
and
great
vse
,
I
will
thus
briefly
conclude
of
it

I
hold

and
imployer
of

.
Farewell

Eight
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
eight
houre
,
and
good
stomackes
are
ready
for
a
breakfast
:
The
Huntsman
now
calls
in
his
Houndes
,
and
at
the
fall
of
the
Déere
the
Hornes
goe
apace
:
Now
beginne
the
Horses
to
breathe
and
the
Labourer
to
sweat
,
and
with
quicke
hands
,
worke
rids
apace
:
Now
the
Schollers
make
a
charme
in
the
Schooles
,
and
Ergo
kéepes
a
stirre
in
many
a
false
Argument
:
Now
the
Chapmen
fall
to
furnish
the
shoppes
,
the
market
people
make
away
with
their
ware
:
The
Tauerne
hunters
taste
of
the
tother
Wine
,
and
the
nappy
Ale
makes
many
a
drunken
Noll
:
Now
the
Thrasher
beginnes
to
fall
to
his
breakfast
,
and
eate
apace
,
and
worke
apace
,
riddes
the
Corne
quickely
away
:
Now
the
Piper
lookes
what
hée
hath
gotten
since
day
,
and
the
Begger
,
if
hée
haue
hit
well
,
will
haue
a
pot
of
the
best
:
The
Traueller
now
begins
to
water
his
horse
,
and
if
he
were
earely
vp
,
perhaps
a
bait
will
doe
well
.
The
Osteler
now
makes
cleane
his
stables
,
and
if
Ghestes
come
in
,
hée
is
not
without
his
welcome
.
In
conclusion
,
for
all
I
finde
in
it
,
I
hold
it
the
Mindes
trauaile
,
and
the
Bodies
toyle
.
Farewell
.
Nine
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
nynth
houre
,
and
the
Sunne
is
gotten
vp
well
toward
his
height
,
and
the
sweating
Traueller
beginnes
to
féele
the
burthen
of
his
way
:
The
Scholler
now
falles
to
conning
of
his
Lesson
,
and
the
Lawyer
at
the
Barro
falls
to
pleading
of
his
Case
:
the
Soldier
now
makes
many
a
weary
steppe
in
his
march
,
and
the
amorous
Courtier
almost
ready
to
goe
out
of
his
Chamber
:
The
market
now
growes
to
bée
full
of
people
,
and
the
Shopmen
now
are
in
the
heat
of
the
market
:
the
Faulconers
now
finde
it
too
hote
flying
,
and
the
Huntsmen
begin
to
grow
weary
of
their
sport
:
The
Byrders
now
take
in
their
Nets
and
their
Roddes
,
and
the
Fishermen
send
their
Fish
to
the
Market
:
the
Tauerne
and
the
Ale-house
are
almost
full
of
Guestes
,
and
Westminster
and
Guild
Hall
are
not
without
a
word
or
two
on
both
sides
:
The
Carriers
now
are
loading
out
of
Towne
,
and
not
a
Letter
but
must
bée
payd
for
ere
it
passe
:
The
Cryer
now
tryes
the
strength
of
his
throat
,
and
the
Beareward
leades
his
Beare
home
after
his
challenge
:
The
Players
Billes
are
almost
all
set
vp
,
and
the
Clarke
of
the
Market
begins
to
shew
his
Office
:
In
summe
,
in
this
houre
there
is
much
to
doe
,
as
well
in
the
City
,
as
the
Countrey
:
And
therefore
to
be
short
,
I
will
thus
make
my
conclusion
:
I
hold
it
the
toyle
of
Wit
,
and
the
tryall
of
Reason
.
Farewell
.
Ten
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
tenth
houre
,
and
now
preparation
is
to
bée
made
for
dinner
:
The
Trenchers
must
be
scraped
,
and
the
Napkins
folded
,
the
Salt
couered
,
and
the
Kniues
scoured
,
and
the
cloth
layed
,
the
Stooles
set
ready
,
and
all
for
the
Table
:
there
must
bee
haste
in
the
Kitchin
for
the
Boyld
and
the
Roste
,
prouision
in
the
sellar
for
Wyne
,
Ale
,
and
Béere
:
The
Pantler
and
the
Butler
must
bée
ready
in
their
Office
,
and
the
Usher
of
the
Hall
must
marshall
the
Seruingmen
:
The
Hawke
must
bée
set
on
the
Pearch
,
and
the
Dogges
put
into
the
Kennell
,
and
the
Guests
that
come
to
Dinner
,
must
bée
inuited
against
the
houre
:
The
Schollers
now
fall
to
construe
and
parce
,
and
the
Lawyer
makes
his
Clyent
either
a
Man
or
a
Mouse
:
The
Chapmen
now
draw
home
to
their
Innes
,
and
the
Shopmen
fall
to
folding
vp
their
Wares
:
The
Ploughman
now
beginnes
to
grow
towards
home
,
and
the
Dayry
mayd
,
after
her
worke
,
falls
to
clensing
of
her
Uessels
:
The
Cooke
is
cutting
soppes
for
Broth
,
and
the
Butler
is
chipping
of
loaues
for
the
Table
:
The
Minstrels
beginne
to
goe
towards
the
Tauernes
,
and
the
cursed
Crue
visit
the
vyle
places
:
In
summe
,
I
thus
conclude
of
it
:
I
hold
it
the
Messenger
to
the
stomacke
,
and
the
spirits
recreation
.
Farewell
.
Eleuen
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
eleuenth
houre
,
children
must
breake
vp
Schoole
,
Lawyers
must
make
home
to
their
houses
,
Merchants
to
the
Exchange
,
and
Gallants
to
the
Ordinary
:
the
Dishes
set
ready
for
the
meat
,
and
the
Glasses
halfe
full
of
faire
water
:
Now
the
market
people
make
towards
their
Horses
,
and
the
Beggers
begin
to
draw
néere
the
Townes
:
the
Porrage
put
off
the
fire
,
is
set
a
cooling
for
the
Plough
folke
,
and
the
great
Loafe
,
and
the
Chéese
are
set
ready
on
the
Table
:
Colledges
and
Halles
ring
to
Dinner
,
and
a
Schollers
Commons
is
soone
disgested
:
The
Rich
mans
Guests
are

Courtsey
,
and
I
thanke
you
:
and
the
poore
mans
Feast
is
Welcome
,
and
God
be
with
you
:
The
Page
is
ready
with
his
Knife
and
his
Trencher
,
and
the
meat
will
bée
halfe
cold
,
ere
the
Guests
can
agrée
on
their
places
:
The
Cooke
voides
the
Kitchin
,
and
the
Butler
,
the
Buttery
,
and
the
Seruing
men
stand
all
ready
at
the
Dresser
:
the
Children
are
called
to
say
Grace
before
Dinner
,
and
the
nice
people
rather
looke
then
eate
:
the
gates
be
loekt
for
feare
of
the
Beggers
,
and
the
Minstrels
called
in
,
to
bée
ready
with
their
Musicke
:
The
pleasant
wit
is
now
breaking
a
Iest
,
and
the
hungry
man
puts
his
Iawes
to
their
proofe
:
In
summe
,
to
conclude
my
opinion
of
it
,
I
hold
it
the
Epicures
Ioy
,
and
the
Labourers
ease
.
Farewell
.
Twelue
of
the
Clocke
.
IT
is
now
the
twelfth
Houre
,
the
Sunne
is
at
his
height
,
and
the
middle
of
the
day
,
the
first
course
is
serued
in
,
and
the
second
ready
to
follow
:
the
dishes
haue
béen
red
ouer
,
and
the
reuersion
set
by
:
the
wine
beginnes
to
be
called
for
,
and
who
waits
not
is
chidden
:
talke
passeth
away
time
,
and
when
stomackes
are
full
,
discourses
grow
dull
and
heauy
:
But
after
Fruit
and
Chéese
,
say
Grace
and
take
away
:
Now
the
Markets
are
done
,
the
Exchange
broke
vp
,
and
the
Lawyers
at
Dinner
,
and
Duke
Humphreys
seruants
make
their
walkes
in
Paules
,
the
Shop
men
kéepe
th●ir
shops
,
and
their
seruants
goe
to
dinner
:
the
traueller
begins
to
call
for
a
reckoning
,
and
goes
into
the
stable
to
sée
his
Horse
eate
his
prouender
:
The
Plough
man
now
is
in
the
bottome
of
his
Dish
,
and
the
Laborer
drawes
out
his
Dinner
out
of
his
Bagge
:
The
Beasts
of
the
field
take
rest
after
their
feed
,
and
the
Birds
of
the
Ayre
are
at
I●ke
in
the
Bushes
:
the
Lambe
lies
sucking
,
while
the
Ewe
chewes
the
Cud
,
and
the
Rabbet
will
scarce
péepe
out
of
her
Borough
:
the
Hare
sits
close
asléepe
in
her
muse
,
while
the
Dogges
sit
waiting
for
a
bone
from
the
Trencher
:
In
briefe
,
for
all
I
find
of
it
,
I
thus
conclude
in
it
:
I
hold
it
the
stomacks
pleasure
,
and
the
spirits
wearines
.
Farewell
.
Midnight
.
NOw
is
the
Sunne
withdrawne
into
his
Bed-chamber
,
the
Windowes
of
Heauen
are
shut
vp
,
and
silence
with
darknesse
haue
made
a
walke
ouer
the
whole
Earth
,
and
Time
is
tasked
to
worke
vpon
the
worst
Actions
:
yet
Uertue
being
her selfe
,
is
neuer
weary
of
well
doing
,
while
the
best
spirits
are
studying
for
the
bodies
rest
:
Dreames
and
Uisions
are
the
Haunters
of
troubled
spirits
,
while
Nature
is
most
comforted
in
the
hope
of
the
morning
:
the
body
now
lyes
as
a
dead
lump
,
while
sleepe
,
the
pride
of
ease
,
lulls
the
Senses
of
the
Sloathfull
:
the
tired
Limbs
now
cease
from
their
labours
,
and
the
studious
braines
giue
ouer
their
businesse
:
the
Bed
is
now
an
image
of
the
Graue
,
and
the
Prayer
of
the
Faithfull
makes
the
Pathway
to
Heauen
:
Louers
now
enclose
a
mutuall
content
,
while
gracious
minds
haue
no
wicked
imaginations
:
Théeues
,
Wolues
,
and
Foxes
,
now
fall
to
their
pray
,
but
,
a
strong
locke
,
and
a
good
wit
,
will
aware
much
mischiefe
:
and
he
that
trusteth
in
God
will
be
safe
from
the
Deuill
.
Farewell
.
The
Conclusion
.
ANd
thus
to
conclude
,
for
that
it
growes
late
,
and
a
nod
or
two
with
an
heauy
eye
,
makes
me
feare
to
proue
a
plaine
Noddy
,
entreating
your
patience
till
to
morrow
,
and
hoping
you
will
censure
mildly
of
this
my
Fantasticke
Labour
,
wishing
I
may
hereafter
please
your
senses
with
a
better
subiect
then
this
;
I
will
in
the
meane
time
pray
for
your
prosperity
,
and
end
with
the
English
Phrase
,
God
giue
you
good
night
.
