A greatter thanks , for Churchyardes welcome home . I Bad not Courte farewell for such hot welcome home , But glad to leaue the costly Courte and lyue lyke cuntrye mome . From thence I wyllyng went : and thought in very deed , To make ( ere mischeefs fel on heapes ) a Uertue of a need . But my cheeff freend came there , to whome for duties sake I rode , and did ( by destinies lot ) a further iourney make . Which freend drew me by loue , to see the Courte agayne : But sens my suddayn comming there doth breed in you disdayne : I fynd more fumish flames , by this fond frantike smoke : And see ( perhaps ) a further fyer , then you with craft can cloke . But tyll your fyngers burne , ye care not what ye doe : Well , I wyll helpe to kyndle coales , and clap on faggots toe . To bryng your handes in heat , because the ayre is colde : Ka. me : Knaue thee : I say no more , the prouerbe is full olde . Yf Crowes of Cheape cry Ka , the bawle doth backe rebound : For sure I owe not all their towne , the halfe of twentie pound . And thyrteene candels great , o euery pound allowe : Then call an audite of my debt , and cast my charges nowe . Yet know I cut tayld Curres , can neuer byght in frame : Tyll courage claps them on the backs and thrusts them on the game . Come on you snarryng whelpes I feare your force no whit : Though lowd ye bark ye dare not byte your teeth are tender yet . Baight me lyke Bull at stake , I haue good flesh and bone : To trie it out ( as hap shall serue ) with any Dog alone . No other aunswer sure , I make : now vb this well : But leaue the Lob that rayld on me , the bable and the bell . * Write not to this agayne , in silence shall ye sit : As voyde of aunswer euery way , as you are voyd of wyt . FINIS . ( ꝙ ) playne Churchyarde .
