quam_fw-la alterio_fw-la every_o man_n have_v rather_o be_v his_o own_o friend_n than_o his_o neighbour_n oh_o qd_n the_o angler_n but_o that_o be_v a_o rule_n against_o good_a fellowship_n why_o so_o quoth_v the_o scholar_n i_o think_v he_o that_o will_v not_o provide_v for_o his_o own_o breakfast_n can_v hardly_o bid_v his_o friend_n to_o dinner_n well_o sir_n quoth_v the_o angler_n what_o say_v you_o to_o your_o sentence_n in_o this_o sense_n a_o young_a lover_n in_o a_o cold_a night_n give_v his_o wench_n his_o cloak_n and_o go_v himself_o in_o his_o doublet_n in_o the_o rain_n i_o say_v quoth_v the_o scholar_n love_n be_v dear_a than_o life_n and_o therefore_o she_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o his_o heart_n joy_n he_o prefer_v his_o mistress_n before_o himself_o according_a to_o the_o custom_n of_o kind_a heart_n oh_o quoth_v the_o angler_n such_o lover_n in_o deed_n be_v pretty_a fool_n like_o the_o bird_n that_o fly_v in_o the_o air_n and_o suffer_v his_o hen_n to_o hatch_v her_o egg_n on_o his_o back_n while_o he_o fly_v up_o and_o down_o for_o meat_n for_o her_o dinner_n but_o in_o deed_n to_o tell_v you_o truth_n near_o be_v my_o skin_n then_o my_o coat_n and_o that_o be_v the_o plain_a sense_n of_o your_o sentence_n well_o then_o qd_n the_o scholar_n to_o go_v on_o with_o another_o note_n erustra_fw-la sapit_fw-la qui_fw-la non_fw-la sapit_fw-la sibi_fw-la he_o be_v a_o fool_n for_o all_o his_o wit_n that_o be_v not_o wise_a for_o himself_o indeed_o quoth_v the_o angler_n he_o that_o will_v till_o his_o neighbour_n ground_n before_o he_o have_v do_v with_o his_o own_o may_v happen_v to_o have_v corn_n in_o the_o field_n when_o other_o have_v their_o harvest_n in_o the_o barn_n indeed_o sir_n quoth_v the_o scholar_n he_o that_o do_v for_o other_o for_o i_o thank_v you_o till_o he_o say_v to_o himself_o i_o beshrew_v you_o he_o may_v have_v more_o kind_a wit_n then_o commodious_a understanding_n but_o by_o your_o leave_n among_o many_o that_o have_v be_v

poison_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o all_o good_a disposition_n and_o this_o good_a old_a gentleman_n his_o name_n be_v machavile_n oh_o quoth_v the_o angler_n a_o vengeance_n of_o all_o villain_n i_o think_v there_o be_v never_o such_o another_o he_o have_v leave_v such_o deviltish_a lesson_n to_o the_o world_n that_o i_o think_v he_o will_v hardly_o come_v at_o heaven_n i_o pray_v you_o sir_n quoth_v the_o angler_n let_v i_o entreat_v you_o to_o recite_v some_o of_o they_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o sir_n qd_n the_o scholar_n among_o many_o note_n that_o i_o take_v it_o of_o diverse_a place_n of_o his_o discourse_n i_o remember_v this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o that_o it_o be_v good_a for_o a_o man_n of_o conscience_n to_o keep_v the_o band_n of_o his_o oath_n and_o yet_o when_o

bring_v soul_n into_o hell_n a_o gentle_a instruction_n to_o persuade_v a_o covetous_a spirit_n to_o bring_v the_o body_n and_o soul_n to_o destruction_n but_o by_o your_o leave_n he_o that_o will_v venture_v his_o own_o soul_n shall_v have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o my_o body_n well_o what_o be_v the_o next_o note_n marry_o quoth_v the_o scholar_n that_o father_n in_o their_o government_n shall_v be_v fear_v of_o their_o child_n but_o quoth_v the_o angler_n i_o be_o not_o of_o his_o mind_n in_o that_o point_n for_o love_n breed_v more_o assurance_n than_o fear_n do_v comfort_n but_o what_o else_o sch._n that_o it_o be_v good_a for_o master_n to_o be_v bountiful_a to_o their_o servant_n be_v it_o not_o that_o keeper_n will_v say_v that_o fat_a hound_n will_v hunt_v but_o lazilie_o yea_o quoth_v the_o angler_n such_o lesson_n as_o these_o drive_v so_o many_o poor_a serve_a man_n that_o pay_v for_o their_o own_o livery_n to_o run_v on_o the_o score_n for_o their_o breakfast_n but_o i_o pray_v you_o what_o more_o sch._n that_o he_o that_o will_v not_o curtsy_v to_o a_o millstone_n make_v music_n to_o a_o owl_n dance_v trenchmore_o with_o a_o ape_n and_o fall_v to_o wonder_v

this_o effect_n answer_v the_o scholar_n indeed_o quoth_v the_o angler_n now_o that_o i_o do_v remember_v i_o i_o think_v he_o that_o can_v carry_v a_o ring_n in_o his_o mouth_n a_o book_n under_o his_o arm_n a_o pen_n in_o his_o ear_n and_o a_o knife_n in_o his_o pocket_n may_v hap_v to_o make_v himself_o good_a cheer_n when_o better_a mind_n may_v miss_v their_o dinner_n but_o on_o with_o your_o note_n i_o pray_v you_o sir_n quoth_v the_o scholar_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o i_o red_a in_o certain_a note_n of_o a_o scholar_n of_o he_o that_o a_o man_n that_o will_v thrive_v in_o the_o

any_o of_o they_o for_o if_o he_o grow_v in_o love_n with_o a_o woman_n or_o in_o league_n with_o a_o friend_n so_o far_o that_o he_o commit_v his_o secret_n to_o his_o keep_n his_o head_n be_v under_o a_o other_o girdle_n his_o purse_n at_o a_o other_o command_v and_o his_o wit_n in_o a_o other_o keep_v and_o then_o for_o lack_v of_o a_o little_a discretion_n he_o may_v even_o go_v currant_n for_o a_o fool_n oh_o this_o be_v a_o pretty_a scholar_n at_o the_o devil_n alphabet_n quoth_v the_o angler_n be_v not_o timon_n of_o athens_n one_o of_o the_o father_n of_o his_o church_n who_o give_v counsel_n to_o the_o afflict_a to_o hang_v themselves_o for_o their_o comfort_n i_o think_v he_o be_v quoth_v the_o scholar_n but_o god_n bless_v every_o good_a spirit_n from_o such_o a_o wicked_a kind_n of_o humour_n but_o to_o go_v on_o i_o red_a further_o that_o it_o be_v no_o little_a proof_n of_o wit_n to_o find_v out_o a_o prodigal_a heir_n to_o use_v he_o like_o a_o young_a brother_n and_o if_o there_o be_v ever_o a_o lawyer_n of_o a_o large_a conscience_n what_o a_o bribe_n may_v do_v for_o a_o conveyance_n oh_o quoth_v the_o angler_n the_o pillary_n be_v a_o sit_v
