Searcher.
I Searcher, am very hardy, and do not feare nor tremble/
And subtiller, then all

fearth-out and cry:

For I, with nimble Powers; do search both high and lowe.
God doth the Mans Thoughts ; by Mee; fynde-out and knowe.
I am searching, in subtle Fore-cast or wyly Inuencion.
Therfore do they all likewyse, avowe into great Contencion,
Which (without Knowledg of ye Trueth) do fondly Mee beleeue.
But so long as Playne-and-iust, no care to Mee doth geeue/
And that his Thoughts/to ye Searching, do not bende their Lust/
Then it shall at al-tymes, go-well with Playne-and-iust.

Playne-and-iust.
I Playne-and-iust, liue quyetly, in my Degree.
Playne-and-iust, hath God almighty, created Mee.

Therfore also am I to her ; with my gentil Loue; inclyned:

With Playne-and-iust therfore, is my Course-of-walking.
For God hath ioyned me to him, together for to dwell.
And Playne-and iust likewyse, contenteth mee right well.
We keepe ourselues together, as one-anothers Mate.
