The hovse of correction | ||
In Lincum.
Lincus the Draper, for his more auayle,Dams vp his lights to set his Ware to sayle;
And counts it (in his Art) a misterie
To gayne by lying, oaths, and flatterie:
But take this rule, If Lincus his lights stoppe,
Deeme you his conscience darker then his shoppe.
