Occupacyon to Skelton.

How say ye? is this after your appetite?
May this contente you and your mirry mynde?
Here dwellith pleasure, with lust and delyte;
Contynuall comfort here ye may fynde,
Of welth and solace no thynge left behynde;
All thynge conuenable here is contryuyd,
Wherewith your spiritis may be reuyuid.
