[In Thesaly, ther Asses fine are kept]
In Thesaly, ther Asses fine are kept,fayre, smoth, plump, fat and full:
The mangers they are fild, ye stables clenly swept
And yet their pace is very slow and dull.
So sotes oft tymes haue vnto honour crept,
when wiser men haue hadd a coulder pull,
If Asses haue such luck what shall I say?
Let Scollers burne their bookes & goe to play.
