Taistinge.

The attribution of this poem is questionable.

From all fruittes that are forbiddin,
Such for wich old Eue was chiddin;
From Bread of Labowrers, Suyet & toyle,
From the poore widowes mythe & oyle;
From the canditis poysoned baittes
Of Jesuitts and the desaittes,
Italian sallets, & Romisse d[r]ogis,
The milk of Babells proud houris duggis;
From Blood of Innocents oftin vrongit
From thair estaits thats from them throngit;
From Wyne that may disturbe the braine,
And from the dangerous figges of Spaine;
At all banquetts & al feasting,
Bliss my soueraing and his taisting.
