Robert Vaghane to the Pye.

Pyke the hence Pye, pyke the hence prater
Pyke the hence peuysshe, pyke the pyed Pye
walke in the wanyond, and wayte for some water
To lyck at thy lyppes, that of lyinge are drye
Thy braggynge bostes, once shalt thou dere bye
Happe wyll so happen, I holde the a grote
Than far from thy countrey, thou wylt be fayne to flye
Or cowardly in couerte, go and chaunge thy cote.
