his peeres And where he séemde for longer time to daie To morrow lies he as a lumpe of clay ¶ The Infant yong the milke white aged head the gallant Youth that braueth with the best We sée with earth are quickly ouer-spreade and both alike brought to their latest rest As soone to market commeth to be solde The tender Lambes skin as the Weathers olde ¶ Death is not partiall as the Prouerbe saies the Prince and Peasant both with him are one The sweetest face that's painted now a daies and highest head set forth with pearle and stone When he hath brought them to the earthly graue Beare no more reckoning then the poorest slaue ¶ The wealthy Chuffe that makes his Gold his God and scrapes and scratches all the mucke he may And with the world dooth play at euen and od when Death thinks good to take him hence away Hath no more ritches in his winding shéete Then the poore soule that sterued in the stréete ¶ Vnhappie man that runneth on thy race not minding where thy crased bones must rest But woe to thée that doost forget thy place purchast for thée to liue amongst the blest Spend then thy life in such a good regard That Christes blessing may be thy reward FINIS A Dittie discoursing the communication betweene Christ and the woman of Samaria that came to drawe water at Iacobs well according as it is sette downe in the 4. chapter of Saint Iohn ⸪ This Dittie may be sung to the note of Deeme all my deedes AS Iesus went to Galilee his iourney chaunced so Thorow Samaria as he went by Iacobs Well to go Where béeing faint and wearied with labouring on the waie He sate him downe on Iacobs Well at midde time of the day ¶ Not long had Iesus sitten there but as the text dooth tell A woman of Samaria came for water to the well His Disciples were gone for meate least faintnesse shoulde force them shrinke When Iesus to the woman said Woman giue me some drinke ¶ How is it said the woman then a Iewe thou seem'st to be How happens it that thou doost thus demaund for drinke of me The Iewes make small account of vs and we estéeme them so They meddle not with Samaritanes I thinke thy selfe doost know ¶ Said Iesus then if thou didst knowe the gift of God on hie And who he is that asketh drinke I thinke assuredlie Thou wouldest haue asked drinke of him to ease thy inward strife And he woulde haue bestowed on thée the swéete water of life ¶ Quoth she thou nothing hast to draw the well is déepe likewise From whence hast thou the water of life I cannot well deuise Art thou greater then our Father Iacob who gaue to vs this well He and his Children dranke thereof and so did his Cattell ¶ Quoth Iesus then this water héere can no mans thirsting slake But who so of the water drinks that I to him shall take Shall neuer thirst but shall in him a well of water raise Springing vnto eternall life where he shall see good daies ¶ Sir said the Woman giue to me of this sweete water cléere That I may neuer thirst againe nor come to draw more heere Then Iesus thus to her replied Thy Husband goe and call And then come hether vnto me and answer thée I shall ¶ I haue no husbande Sir said she Quoth he Thou saiest well Thou hast no husband but hast had fiue husbands I can tell And for the man whom now thou hast thy husband is not he I knowe as much as thou hast said the very certaintie ¶ The Woman then amazed was to heare her fault descried Thou art a Prophet sir I sée thus she to him replied Our Fathers worshipped in this Mount so long as they did liue But you say at Ierusalem that men should worship giue ¶ Woman said Iesus vnto her the howre draweth néere When neither at Ierusalem nor in this Mountaine heere Shall you the Father reuerence his worshippe you abuse We know our worshippe and that life procéedeth of the Iewes ¶ But sure the howre is at hand and nowe it is likewise When the true seruaunts of the Lord shall with themselues deuise To worship him in spirit and trueth such worship would he haue He is a Spirit and the trueth like worship doth he craue ¶ Then said the woman vnto him I knowe assuredly That the Messias soone shall come and Christ his name must be When he is come as come he will all things he will reueale And he will tell vs by what waies our actions we must deale ¶ Quoth Iesus vnto her againe take this for certaintie I am Messias and that Christ that talketh heere with thée With that came his Disciples straite who meruailed much to sée That he would with the woman talke and so familiar bee ¶ The Woman left her water pot and to the Cittie ran Where she disclosde what Christ had said willing them come sée the man Which when they did they by this meanes were brought vnto beléefe And he remaind with them two daies to yéeld them more reléefe FINIS ¶ Of the three wise sentences which three yong men of the Guarde of King Darius presented to him The first said VVine is strongest The second said The King of strongest The third said VVomen are strongest but Truth ouercommeth all things The first that spake of the strength of VVine began to prooue his argument first as foloweth according as it is written in the third and fourth Chap. of Esdras Wyne is strongest This Ditty may be sung to the Quadrant Galliard O What a thing of strength is wine of how great power and might For it deceiueth euery one that takes therein delight The minde of King and fatherlesse It maketh equall in likenesse ¶ The bond-man and the frée-man bothe Wine maketh in equality The poore-man and the welthy wretch Wine knitteth in affinity The Lordly péere and homely hind In Wine but slender difference finde ¶ Wine turneth euerie pensiue thought to ioy and gladnesse presentlie So that all they which drinke thereof doo cleane cast out of memorie All sorrow greefe debt or distresse Wine sets them in such pleasantnes ¶ Wine maketh euery hart so ritch that they forgette immediatly Their King their Gouernour and all and pleade their owne authoritie And all their words weigh verie déepe Till wine haue brought them fast a sléepe ¶ When men are entred in their drink they haue no minde at all Of loue to Brethren fréends or kin but some to weapons fall But when they are from Wine at last They not remember what hath past ¶ Is not Wine strongest now thinke you that carrieth with it such a might As forceth men to doo these things without regard of wrong or right This said he paused for a space And to the second man gaue place FINIS ¶ The second man who spake of the strength of the King after his fellow had ended beganne to declare his minde The King is
