[All mortall creatures conceaued in sinne]
All mortall creatures conceaued in sinne,VVretchedly borne, liuing in variaunce,
Are lyke fragrant flowres in a Garden,
VVith fading florishe euer chaunging the chaunce,
The newe to olde succeedeth by ordinaunce,
So in his kinde goeth humane succession,
Now sicke, now sound, now glad, now in greeuaunce,
Neuer standeth in one estate by condicion.
