To a Niggarde.
All thyng is dere thou saist,wine, vittayl, corne, and graine:
Yet miser vile well stored thou
with all thyng dost remaine.
So thou to no man deere,
selst deere vnto the poore:
Alacke thou saist all things are deere,
deere must I sell therefore.
Ah, sell thou miser as thou maist
and shunne thou Vsury:
So shalt thou be to all men deere
and dere to none perdie.
