A
Good-thinking.Heere cometh Playne-and-iust.
Unregarding.
Wilt thou go and meete with him then/
And as a mery Companyon, greete him in freendly fashon?
Good-thinking.
Saluted be thou my Freende, for thou art of our Occupashon,
Com on, and heere with vs, thyself to Mirth now giue.
Playne-and-iust:
As my Thoughts direct mee, in that sort do I liue:
Looke what shee teacheth Mee, that Lesson do I ymmitate.
Unregarding.
O princly Cogitations, thyself refresh and recreate/
Delyte thee now in Labour ; with vs; without Delaye:
Let what soeuer greeueth thee, without the Wicket staye,
Take now thyne owne Choyse, in Uoluptuus-exercise.
Regarde no vertuous Manners, but do them all dispise:
Nor ceasse not ; in Ioye; to increase and still to growe.
Good-thinking.
Feare not, I wil teache Playne-and-iust well, I trewe/
To haue Good-thinking, in his Thoughts or Memory.
For then shalt thou still, be sure to haue the Uictory.
See thou remember this, thats heere to thee set-downe.
B
Cogitacions.Wee humbly thank you both, ye Wyseones of Renowne.
For ye haue shewd vs Fauour, and not dismayd vs at-all.
Playne-and-iust.
Ther is nothing that doth better, to our Lyking fall/
Then ; in the Wynde; to let all blowe at venture wylde/
20
As we haue heere to that effect, had good Informacion.
Cogitacions.
Wee must alwayes giue you both, worthy Comendation/
And account Good-thinking, for our graue Counseler:
For of our Greefe and Anguise, hee is the Disburthener:
Let vs therfore accorde together, in one consent of Mynde.
C
Good-thinking.Go-to, we wil be mery, with this Gayne that heere we fynde,
Our Spinning is not easy, to reele ; as I suppose;:
Though men, from many Parishes, therunto were chose/
Yet shoulde they not in hast, our snarled Worke vnwynde.
Com on now ; Unregarding; display thee in thy kynde,
Make vs now som Mirth/grounde suerly thy Forte:
Let vs sing, spring, and daunce/and make a litle Sporte:
And then let vs eate awhile, and drinke without all Measure/
So may we forgett the tyme, with Ioye and worldly Pleasure.
