44. A Dialogue betwixt a Wise King and a good Christian.
The Wise King.My neighbours secrets I desire to know,
That I their priuate plots may ouerthrow.
The good Christian.
I doe neglect my Neighbours words, and deedes,
I carefully suruey mine owne proceeds.
The Wise King.
If that my friends offer to doe me harme,
I smite them first, and seeke them to disarme.
The good Christian.
Though that my Foes doe wrong me euery houre,
I doe them all the good lyes in my power.
The Wise King.
By these and Iustice, I shall wisely raigne.
8
By this and faith, Heauens Kingdome I shall gaine.
