[I am not, but am said to bee]

I am not, but am said to bee,
And many things are told of mee,
As first forsooth that I am blinde,
And bushed before, and balde behinde:
And that I halting come to one,
And slie when as I will be gone:
With fooles my godhead is not small,
With wise men it is none at all.

It is vnderstood of fortune.
