the_o penniles_n parliament_n of_o threadbare_a poet_n or_o all_o mirth_n and_o witty_a conceit_n print_v at_o london_n for_o william_n barley_n and_o be_v to_o be_v sell_v at_o his_o shop_n in_o gracious_a street_n near_o leaden-hall_n gate_n 1608._o here_o begin_v the_o penniles_n parliament_n of_o threadbare_a poet_n first_o of_o all_o for_o the_o increase_n of_o every_o fool_n in_o his_o humour_n we_o think_v it_o necessary_a &_o convenient_a that_o all_o such_o as_o buy_v this_o book_n and_o laugh_v not_o at_o it_o before_o he_o have_v read_v it_o over_o shall_v be_v condemn_v of_o melancholy_a and_o be_v adjudge_v to_o walk_v over_o more-fielde_n twice_o a_o week_n in_o a_o foul_a shirt_n and_o a_o pair_n of_o boötes_n but_o no_o stocking_n it_o be_v also_o agree_v upon_o that_o long_o beard_a man_n shall_v seldom_o prove_v the_o wise_a and_o that_o a_o niggard_n purse_n shall_v scarce_o bequeath_v his_o master_n a_o good_a dinner_n and_o because_o water_n be_v like_a to_o prove_v so_o weak_a a_o element_n in_o the_o world_n that_o man_n and_o woman_n will_v want_v tear_n to_o bewail_v their_o sin_n we_o charge_v and_o command_v all_o gardener_n to_o sow_v more_o store_n of_o onion_n for_o fear_v widow_n shall_v want_v moisture_n to_o bewail_v their_o husband_n funeral_n in_o like_a manner_n we_o think_v it_o fit_a that_o red-wine_n shall_v be_v drink_v with_o oyster_n and_o that_o some_o maiden_n shall_v blush_v more_o for_o shame_n then_o for_o shamefastness_n but_o man_n must_v have_v care_n least_o converse_v too_o much_o with_o red-petticoate_n they_o

have_v bread_n fire_n meat_n or_o drink_v without_o c●●dite_n or_o ready_a mony_n sicaphant_n by_o the_o statute_n shall_v have_v great_a gift_n and_o good_a and_o godly_a labour_n shall_v scarce_o

for_o saylor_n and_o soldier_n to_o spend_v at_o their_o pleasure_n what_o they_o get_v by_o their_o sword_n and_o if_o the_o treasurer_n pay_v they_o any_o thing_n beyond_o count_n and_o reckon_n if_o they_o buyld_v not_o a_o hospital_n therewith_o they_o may_v bestow_v it_o in_o apparel_n by_o the_o statute_n it_o be_v further_a establish_v and_o agree_v upon_o that_o they_o that_o drink_v

be_v further_a agree_v upon_o and_o establish_v that_o many_o strange_a event_n shall_v happen_v in_o those_o house_n where_o the_o maid_n be_v predominant_a with_o her_o master_n and_o want_v a_o mistress_n to_o look_v narrow_o unto_o she_o also_o we_o think_v it_o convenient_a that_o some_o shall_v take_v their_o neighbour_n bed_n for_o their_o own_o some_o the_o servant_n for_o the_o master_n and_o if_o candle_n can_v tell_v tale_n some_o will_v take_v a_o familiar_a for_o a_o flea_n also_o we_o think_v it_o meet_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v many_o fowler_n who_o in_o stead_n of_o lack_n will_v each_o lobcoke_n and_o many_o for_o want_v of_o wit_n shall_v sell_v their_o freehold_n for_o tobacco_n pipe_n and_o red_a petticoat_n likewise_o we_o think_v it_o convenient_a
