The Shoe-maker and Cobler with their Ends
One alwayes makes, and t'other euer mends:
Take away Hemp, the sole and vpper leather
I know could neuer well be sow'd together.
And for the Cobler it appeareth plaine
That hee's the better workman of the twaine,
For though a Shoomaker in art excell,
And makes his shoes and boots neuer so well:
Yet euermore it is the Coblers trade
To mend the worke the Shoomaker hath made.
 

The Character of a Cobler.
