II A 30

[Now to the myndes of twelve it is—referd]

Now to the myndes of twelve it is—referd
Envye men bare thy vertue and hyhe wit
sought thy free foote in suttle wyles to have snared
false witnesses forthwith were then prepard
with hatefull harte the solemene judge doth sett

Thus men may see, whose lyf the Lord will have
Is not yet dead, thoughe three days laid in grave
