C
Good-thinking.But tell me ; Unregarding; what shewst thou heere for Auctoritee/
Like vnto Mee so fyne/that am helde as a Prophet, in eury Lande.
For tis now almost all Good-thinking, what any one doth Understande:
In this sort am I gotten, to be Cheefe aboue thee.
Unregarding.
How shouldst thou haue made the man beleeue anything if hee
Had not first ; through Mee; growen to be so negligent?
19
Freend Unregarding, what are thy pleasant Pads of Meryment?
They are nothiug-at-al, except my Exhortation be theare.
I haue surely caught euryone, with in Good-thinkings Snare.
For in Mee, then do almost all, seeke their Comfort at all Seasons.
And out Good-thinkings Theame, then do also frame ther Reasons.
Thus hast thou nothing like Mee, thou vnregarding Pratler.
Unregarding.
Thou mayst well holde thy peace, thou dissembling Tatler/
For with thy Babling, thou bringst Men into Afflictions store/
To that they ; by meanes of theer enuy each other very sore.
Thou makst the People rebellious, with thy Seede of Dissention.
But I Unregarding, do only Mirth frame and mencion.
So much ; thou Hipocrite; am I nobler then Thou.
