¶_o the_o fantasy_n of_o a_o trouble_a man_n head_n by_o fortune_n as_o i_o lie_v in_o bed_n my_o fortune_n be_v to_o find_v such_o fancy_n as_o my_o careful_a thought_n have_v bring_v into_o my_o mind_n and_o when_o each_o one_o be_v go_v to_o rest_n all_o soft_a in_o bed_n to_o lie_v i_o will_v have_v sleep_v but_o that_o the_o watch_n do_v follow_v still_o my_o eye_n and_o sudden_o i_o see_v a_o sea_n of_o woeful_a sorrow_n press_v who_o wicked_a way_n of_o sharp_a repulse_n breed_v my_o unquiet_a rest_n i_o see_v this_o world_n and_o how_o it_o go_v each_o state_n in_o his_o degree_n and_o that_o from_o wealth_n ygraunt_v be_v both_o life_n and_o liberty_n i_o see_v eke_o how_o envy_n do_v reign_v and_o bear_v the_o greatist_n price_n yet_o great_a poison_n be_v not_o find_v within_o the_o cockatrice_n i_o see_v also_o how_o foul_a disdain_n oft_o time_n to_o forge_v my_o woe_n give_v i_o the_o cup_n of_o bitter_a sweet_a to_o pledge_v my_o mortal_a foe_n i_o see_v also_o how_o that_o desire_n to_o rest_v no_o place_n can_v find_v but_o still_o constrain_v in_o endless_a pain_n to_o follow_v nature_n kind_n i_o see_v also_o most_o strange_a of_o all_o how_o nature_n do_v forsake_v the_o blood_n that_o in_o her_o womb_n be_v wrought_v as_o do_v the_o loathe_a snake_n i_o see_v how_o fancy_n will_v retain_v no_o long_o than_o she_o lust_n and_o as_o the_o wind_n how_o she_o do_v change_v and_o be_v not_o for_o to_o trust_v i_o see_v how_o steadfastness_n do_v fly_v with_o wing_n of_o often_o change_v a_o flyeng_a bird_n but_o seldom_o see_v her_o nature_n be_v so_o strange_a i_o see_v how_o pleasant_a time_n do_v pass_v as_o flower_n do_v in_o the_o meed_n to_o day_n that_o rise_v red_a as_o rose_n to_o morrow_n fall_v dead_a i_o see_v my_o time_n how_o it_o do_v run_v as_o sand_n out_o of_o a_o glass_n even_o as_o each_o hour_n appoint_v be_v from_o time_n and_o tide_n to_o pass_v i_o see_v the_o year_n that_o i_o have_v spend_v and_o loss_n of_o all_o my_o pain_n and_o how_o the_o sport_n of_o youthly_a play_n my_o folly_n do_v retain_v i_o see_v how_o that_o the_o little_a aunt_n in_o summer_n still_o do_v room_n to_o seek_v their_o food_n whereby_o to_o live_v in_o winter_n for_o to_o come_v i_o see_v eke_o virtue_n how_o she_o sit_v the_o thread_n of_o life_n to_o spin_v which_o show_v the_o end_n of_o every_o work_n before_o it_o do_v begin_v and_o when_o all_o these_o i_o thus_o behold_v with_o many_o mo_z pardie_o in_o i_o i_o think_v each_o one_o have_v wrought_v a_o ꝑfect_a ꝓpertie_n and_o then_o i_o say_v unto_o myself_o a_o lesson_n this_o shall_v be_v for_o other_o that_o shall_v after_o come_v for_o to_o beware_v by_o i_o thus_o all_o the_o night_n i_o do_v divise_v which_o way_n i_o may_v constrain_v to_o form_v a_o plot_n that_o wit_n may_v work_v thes_n branch_n in_o my_o brain_n i._o c._n ¶_o finis_fw-la of_o evyll_n tongue_n o_o evil_a tongue_n which_o clap_v at_o every_o wind_n you_o slay_v the_o
