The Leather Bottle.
Now God above, that made all things,Heaven and earth, and all therein;
The ships upon the seas to swim,
To keep foes out, then come not in.
Now every one doth what he can
All for the use and praise of man.
I wish in Heaven that soul man dwell
That first devised the leathern bottle.
