Satire 5.

[Nowe spitefull Fortune doe the worste you can]

Nowe spitefull Fortune doe the worste you can
Yet Iack will rise to be a gentleman
Did not Iacks Lord leane on his shoulders late
Chock him on the chynn, stroake him on the pate
Lendinge Iack smyles when Iack speakes but a word
Ah here be hopefull greaces from a Lord

Who cr'es a wynner, yet if Iack haue these
J cannot see howe Jack cann rise and leese
