[Nowe god bee with old Chuff; avouch't I cann]

Nowe god bee with old Chuff; avouch't I cann
That graie side-coated swadd dyed a good man
Yet dailie heed' bee drunck: naie this is more
The riche old churle for eache daie kept a whore
Yet not-withstanding I doe tell noe lie
In saying Chuff did a right goodman die
Praie speake; maie not the knight his sonn bee glad,
In that for father hee a good-man had.
