Epigram 14. The deuill is a knaue.
Isbell dislikes the surplusse and the cope,And calls them idle vestments of the Pope:
And mistresse Maude would goe to Church full faine,
But that the corner cap makes her refraine:
And Madam Idle is offended deepe,
The Preacher speakes so lowde, she cannot sleepe:
Lo, thus the deuill fowes contentious seed,
Whence sects, & schismes, and heresics do breed.
