Chap. 13.
North
winds send haile, South winds bring raine,
East winds we bewail, West winds blow amaine:
North east is too cold, South east not too warme,
North west is too bold, South west doth no harme.
East winds we bewail, West winds blow amaine:
North east is too cold, South east not too warme,
North west is too bold, South west doth no harme.
The north is a noyer, to grasse of all suites,
The east a destroyer, to herbe, and all fruites:
The south, with his showers, refresheth the corne,
The west, to all flowers, may not be forborne.
The east a destroyer, to herbe, and all fruites:
The south, with his showers, refresheth the corne,
The west, to all flowers, may not be forborne.
The West, as a father, all goodnes doth bring,
The East, a forbearer no manner of thing:
The South as vnkind, draweth sicknes too neere,
The North, as a friend, maketh all againe cleere.
The East, a forbearer no manner of thing:
The South as vnkind, draweth sicknes too neere,
The North, as a friend, maketh all againe cleere.
[13]
With temperate winde, we be blessed of God,
With tempest, we finde, we are beat with his rod:
All power, we knowe, to remaine in his hand,
How euer winde blowe, by sea, or by land.

How euer winde blowe, by sea, or by land.
Though windes doe rage, as windes were wood,
And cause spring tydes, to raise great flood,
And loftie ships, leaue anker in mud,
Bereafing many, of life, and of blud:
Yet true it is, as cow chawes cud,
And trees at spring, doe yeeld forth bud,
Except winde stands, as neuer it stood:
It is an ill winde turnes none to good.
