For according to thy Woords, we holde vs quyet still.
Good-thinking.
Then pluck now on, this Garment of Self will:
And learne to get you Heapes, of our Wisdom, what you maye/
For then shall Playne-and-iust, in you, soone dye-awaye:
And studye in the Knowledg, like Clerkes of deepe Discerning/
So may you then growe strong, or furnishe wel in Lerning:
And shall knowe how to tel-foorth much, very conningly:
Then shall ye alwayes, with vs haue your company.
All what you think good, to thatt do stifly stande:
Although yee shoulde therfore, be killed out of hande.
Thus let not Self-myndednes, be got from you in any case.
And your Headds shall ye like wyse, couer in euery place
With spitfull Indignation, and with cruell Enuy.
Ye shall also bragg, of your large Wisdom, highly.
And shoo you on each Foote (mark what I institute)
With Diligence, all such Blood, to vex and persecute
No wil ryse against Good-thinking, and therto disagree.
