Good
Preachers, that liue ill [like Spittlemen)
Are perfect in the way they neuer went:
Or like the Flame that led Gods Children,
It selfe not knowing what the matter ment:
They be, like Trumpets making others fight,
Themselues not striking stroke; sith liuelesse Things:
Like Land-marks, worne to nought, beeing in the Right:
Like well-directing ill-affected Kings:
Like Bels that others call where they come not:
Like Soape, remaining blacke, and making white:
Like Bowes, that to the Marke the Shafts haue shot,
While they themselues stand bent, vnapt for flight:
For, where their Wordes and Works are not agreed,
There what they mend in Word, they marre in Deed.
