[It hath been proued both euen and morow]
It hath been proued both euen and morow, yt a little mirth is worth much sorow. Many that haue toyled & wrought in vaine, & that ech part of ease did little take, yet in the end for to quench all their paine, they did thē rest & sport, and good cheer make, they did them rest and sport, and good cheer make. It hath been proued both euen, &c.
Tho. VVhythorne.
