The .xxvi. chapter treateth of Iene and of the Ianuayes, and of theyr spech, and of their mony.
I am a marchaunt; borne I was in Iene;Whan I sell my ware, fewe men knoweth what I mene;
I make good treacle, and also fustyan;
Wyth such thynges I crauft wyth many a poer man;
Other of my marchaundes I do set at a great pryce;
I counsel them be ware lest on them I set the dyce;
I do hyt dyuerce tymes; som men on the thomes.
Wher soeuer I ryde or go, I wyl not lese my cromes.
In my apperel, the old fashyon I do kepe;
Yf I should do other wyse, it would cause me to wepe.
Better it is for a man to haue his rayment tore,
Than to runne by-hynd-hande, and not to be before.
189
It bringeth a man by-hynd, & maketh him worse & worse.
