CERTAINE WORTHYE MANVscript Poems of great Antiquitie Reserued long in the Studie of a Northfolke Gentleman And now first published By J. S. 1 The statly tragedy of Guistard and Sismond 2 The Northren Mothers Blessing 3 The way to Thrifte DEVS IMPERAT ASTRIS Imprinted at London for R. D. 1597. To the worthiest Poet Maister Ed. Spenser THE STATELIE Tragedie of Guistard and Sismond in two Bookes The first Booke TANCREDE the noble Prince of Salurne Flowre of Knighthood and myrrour of prowesse The which long time his people did gouerne Wittilie by benignitie and gentlenesse Iche man reioyced of his great noblesse Discreete in all thing that was iudiciall And euermore Prince-like in things imperiall His law he kept iustly through his Prouince Rigorous to vice yet bounteous to all And mercifull al 's as euer was any Prince And shortly as my Doctor makis rehearsall His fame had neuer spot in all his gouernall Til hasty cruelnesse procured in greate yre The fatall death of tweyne that loue had set on fyre A wife he toke which come of blood Royall But of what prince or yet of what linage What was her name or what men did her call Nought sayes mine Author But of high parage Men may well know that thus in marryage Was ioyned with so high a Prince as was Tancrede Therefore I passe ouer take there of none heed This noble Prince Tancrede had neuer issue In time of all his life to be his heire Saue only a doughter whome Nature vertue Excellently indued so was shee good and fayre But Ã´cruel destiny that mirth does oft appeyre And after great gladnes maketh men to morne Better had Tancrede bene that childe had neuer be borne But all that was full ferre fro his minde He red not in the booke of her Destinye Her fatall chaunce was to him derke and blinde Let all this passe This childe was put to noiye Daily she increased in fauour and beautÃ© So that when her nonage passed and her youth Her noble fame beautÃ¨ was in ich mans mouth If I should discriue this beauteous creature Nature had her specially in remembrance For she was wel fetured seemly of stature Her chere was ruddy according to pleasaunce Aspere it was to louers her goodly countenance Her beautie not made be signement ne other gere But of her kinde as Nature gaue to her She excellid in beautÃ© Vlixes Ladie fayre Penelope of Greece and eke fayre Helene Hypolita also and Emely her sister Might not compare with her nor Polixyne Instedfast loue she passed Dido the Queene Faithfull and true without daungerous disdaine Curteys and deboneyre she was not sullein As for to speake of her pregnant wit Her perfite minde and her intelligence No thing was so heard but she conceiued it In ferre sottell casting she had experience What should I say more but shortly in sentence She knew more happily than was expedient Vnto any woman or ellis conuenient Like as the vnhappie fader ofyssue had no more But this child onely so loued he her truely His heart his mind his loue was set on her so sore That if she were abseÌ„t him thought he shuld die So that in his minde he is determind vtterly Euer to keepe his daughter with him in his sight And neuer to graunt her in marriage to no wight Tho Princys royall to whome of high fauour Fortune had grauntit great inheritance Desyren this feyre Lady to their Paramour Euer to be true withouten variance And so by matrimony to make Aliance But tho Cupid hit them with his firie dart Yet nolde her fader suffer her to depart So shortly for to tell this maide fro her desire Was also needly compellit to abstaine Tho lustie youth and corage brent her as fyre Yet mought she neuer pleasure of her loue attaine But euer contemned still liuing in paine Till many of her lustie yeris were agoo Her owne cruell fader did her all this woo It fortund in a time I wot not in what wise Wheder that her fader had compassion Vpon her great woe or ellis for som promise Of good riches or of possession But shortly to Champayn the Dukes sonne He graunted his doughter to haue in marriage A man of blood royall and of high parage It needith not rehers the rich Apparell Of those two louers the day of their wedding Or to my purpose what may hit auaile To tell of the curious feest and the guyding All this I passe ouer and make notarying I speke not of the myrth melody that was there But for a conclusion thus wedded they were Of sorrowfull morning now is the clowdie night By the fyre of loue driuen farre away The ferueÌ„t sun of plesance shineth now fulbright His fresh lustie beames hath turned night to day Now may she daÌ„ce sing now hath she lust to play For euer after mourning the mirth is the sweter And after great sorrow the ioy shal be the greater But as lustie Phoebus with his fierie beames When his golden Carrehath raught into the west Anon he withdrawes his hote brenning streames And then aperith Phoebe out of her cloudynest Then comes the night when al men drawn to rest Vntill on the morrow that Lucifer appeare Called the Day-starre the daies messengere Right so the feruent Sun of her lusty pleasance Was wrapped with weeping of the cloudy raine For within little space of continuance After their wedding Death parted hem tweyne I wot not by what meane her Lord her soueraine By sicknesse or by battell I can no knowlech haue But shortly this Duke-is son is dede in his graue Alas departure ground of all heauinesse Causing the darke night of cloudie diuorse O cruell Death I meane destruction of gladnesse Disdaining the pleasure of this wofull corse Why would thou thus with thy malicious force Eclipse the cleerenesse of this her ioyfull day Bringing forth the night and care and wele-away Falsly thou robbest her of her harts pleasure Taking from her him that she loued best Alas thou art the common theefe of Nature That hast take from her all ease and herts rest Wold God on thee she mought call a Quest Of Louers and then for all thine art Thou shouldyst be do to death with thin owne dart What needith it to speake of thine Enuy When this woful woman shal neuer be the better For that hath be the cause of all her Malady If it be rehersed it makys her wo the greater Wherefore my pen shall write therof no letter But thus this woman wepith can none otherrede It helpeth her nothing for her make is dede How shall she now be ruled shee takis her councell Deuoide of comfort for her lacks her guide Anon she hath coÌ„clud within her mind right well At home with her fader she thinkith to abide And there to leaue her sorrow if it would betide Whereas all her penance first of all was take So wedow to her fader she comith in

looke and spy And at the last with great paine and beesy labore I haue found all the craft for to vndoe this doore Be my selfe alone I went into the caue I saw the little hole where is the entering How and in what wise ye may your selfe saue Agein all manner perils in theder comming The hight and the depenes I send you be writing So that you need not dread for no misauenture Ye know where whan you may haue your plesure And after this in her inditing There was a little clause for a conclusion As is the common vsage in each writing Whose name should be callid Subscription She wrot ther By your owne and made no mentioÌ„ Of her name till after a great stound With sighing sore she added to Sismond What maruaile now if he be not pensiue Now he hath rad this letter of comfort And from his deedly sorrow turns againe to liue Sith he has almost raught the lustie port Of pleasance lust solace and of all disport Wherefore he hasteth full besely and hieth To meet his Ladie as the letter specifieth Who now but this Guistard with his diligence To this pleasant Iourney spedith him apace Euery houre that he is out of her presence Him seemeth for to be a thousand yere of space But tho the sluggish carkasse be far fro her face Yet with the flighty wings of amorous desire He is euer in her seruice brenning as the fire A cord he let adoun anon of great length And fast vnto a Bough aboue he did it tye Fret all full of knots sufficient of strength By which into the pit he mought himself coÌ„uey To close himselfe in ledder also he did puruey Fro bushes and fro briers to kepe him sewre And thus towards the pit he went in this armour The bright eye of the world when that the shining day Withdrawith and also Titan with his sparkling light Then this young louer takith his iourney Towards the foresaid pit abiding there al night Till on the morrow Aurora shone full bright WheÌ„ som haukith som huntith som to their labour Then gins this Ladie to com out from her towre Remembring her well when the night was gone Of their couenants made by iust appointment All her gentyl-men and maydens euerychone To her gardent to sport and play she sent Feyning her to be sick and for that intent She said to her chamber ageyn she would forth right To taken rest and slepe if she might The dores the windowes she closed anon ful sure Then towards the dungeon took she the right way Where she found Guistard her herts pleasure Ioyfully they kissed Then she gan to say Gramercy fortune that I may see this day To speake with him that is my worldly pleasaunce In whome is all my trust and affiaunce She brought him to her chaÌ„ber this Lady beauteous Her fresh apparrell full Lusty was and gay Her surcote of gold furryd with Ermin precious A fayre mirror of Loue her beautie and ary So shortly for to tell I can no more say But construe if ye can louers what they did For I can no more but long they there abid And when them seemed best they parted in sondre Not long they tary ne dayly their sports vse For dayly comming maketh men to wonder And eke long taryaunce makith men to muze But cheifely womens shrewd tongues will accuse Your noble fame and sey your life is nought Tho neuer ye do offend in word ne thought Wisely they prouided to eschew infamy And for all thing secret mought be kept Into the garden went she full hastely Where that her maydens pleyd thinking she slept And at night Guistard out of the pit crept So comming thus and by night parting away Continued they their pleasure till after many a day That fortune alas by treason falsly compast Bewrayed all their counsell of misauenture All their lusty pleasance turned at the last Into cruell deth at their departing O thou false fortune that euer is on sure Bringing herts light to wo when they be well It seem is thou art not able for to rule thy whele It is next in our processe to speake of Tancrede The noble Prince her fader which of great frequeÌ„ce Of tender loue Ielousy more then need So he delyted in her speche and eloquence That he vs'd of custome vnder cares pretence To come vnto the Chamber of his doughter feyre And after they had talkyd agayne home to repeyre Explicit Liber primus THE SECOND booke of Guistard and Sismond IN the mery season of Summer feyre and hot When euery thing renewith by course of nature And winter with his frosty beard and fâ—iesed cote Is put into exile and may no lenger dure Then Summer geuith his liuery with besy cure New clothing all the Earth in a lusty greene All browderid full of flouers right freshly to seene Sterring harts light in gardens to walke So did this Lady Sismond for her pleasaunce In this fresh season plucking flowres fro their stall She made her garloÌ„d wherwith she thought to dauÌ„ce But in the meane while alas the vnhappy chaunce Her Fader of a Custom as he was wont to do Only to talk with her is to her garden go But when he perceiuit she was in her disport Right loath he was to let her recreation He would for nothing his doughter discomfort Neither disquiet her till she had all done Forth into the chamber entred he full sone The curteyns were draw by the bed side He sat behind the curtein his doughter to abide And as he sat still sleep did him encumbre He waxed all vnlisty and also somnolent Then to the bed lened he began to slumbre O thou vntristie fortune what is thine entent To distroy this Lady it seemith thou hast ment Where thou may bewray it is not kept counsell That should be counsel kept thou tellist euery deal O princis doughter Sismond infortunate by birth O houre vnhappy when thou began to so iourne With Loue in his Palace The pleasant Sun of mirth Ys comin to his hiest beginnith to turne O slow malicious meeuer thou cursed Saturne I trow by some enuy or malicious aspect Of all this feruent loue thou hast broken the affect Poore Sismond thinking no deceyt ne guile Partid fro her maydens to her chamber went And so forth to the pit wher in a little while She found her Guistard all readye present For a little before alas for him she sent And when they wer in comin they put no mistrist They know no body there they did what they list Now when her fader see the abhominable Crime After he was out of his sleepe awake He thought haue cryed but for a litle tyme It seemed him best to let his anger slake And easily within himselfe this payne to take He made no stirring but sat euer still Till they had done their pleasure at their owne will And after that departed as before Guistard to the pit
