Of a contrarie mariage.
An aged Trot and toughdid marrie with a Lad:
Againe, a Gallant Girle to
hir Spouse, a Graybeard had,
A monstrous match (God wote)
for others she doth wed:
And he bestowes his seede on ground
that lets it take no hed.
In fayth, a foolish choyce,
for neither hath his wishe:
For tone doth lack his wife, and to-
ther feedes on filthie fishe.
