Knaues Boltes.
Ther's certaine knaues, that from the Citie vseTo send into the country lying newes,
Strange tales of nouelties which they deuise,
To make their friends beholding for their lyes:
And these same Schollers, whom the Diuell schooles,
Because they doe appeare more knaues then Fooles,
Wee giue them warning to refraine such Bolts,
As they (the Diuels markmen) shoote at dolts:
For if they do not, to them be it knowne,
(Because a lyer and a thiefe's all one)
There is an Engine framd three corner wise,
That hath an Arrow, wherwith many dyes,
Strooke when the sign's in Taurus, and this stroak
Doth alwayes giue a fearefull fatall choake:
And so wee leaue them in suspence to hang,
Beweare the stringe that giues the deadly twang.
