To Zoylus. Weepyng teares.
A shipwracke thou hast made of late:from blubberyng teares refraine:
Lost goods, by loud lamentyng cries,
may not be got againe.
Thy brest is Zoyl a sinke of sinnes:
thou still hast gone astraye:
Wherefore waile Zoylus for thy sinnes,
teares washe mens sinnes awaie:
But thou dost laugh my words to scorne:
no force, laugh if thou please:
Yea laugh thy fill, sweet hony still
the sickly doth displease.
