[A Bedrid man before a Iudge was brought]

A Bedrid man before a Iudge was brought
The Iudge biddes stand-vp sirrah as you ought
Oh sir, nor goe, nor sitt, nor stand can I
I am your freind praie give me leaue to lie
Art thou my freind quoth hee? then lie thy fill
a Iudg gives all his freindes leaue to lie still.
