[O polisant graue and donghill clad with snawe]

O polisant graue and donghill clad with snawe,
Thou sister to Sodome, and seate to Sathanas,
Thy likyng lustes last but for a thrawe,
Thou tyrant treasonable, and germaine to Iudas.
VVhom thou canst kisse, salute, and imbrace,
By honor, ritches, delight, and dignitie:
As Iudas betrayed Christe with flattering face,
His soule thou seazest in endles captiuitie.
