[Another Gallant who was light of heele]

Another Gallant who was light of heele,
Would take vpon him for to runne with any,
For he had run round about fortunes wheele,
And neuer yet was he out run by any,
He ran, and ran, some twenty yeares together,
And neuer lookt behinde him, till he met,
A Seriant at the shoulder, clad in leather,
Then he perceiu'd how he had runne in debt,
And now began to stay, yet he must on,
En'e faire and softly vnto prison.
