[Right as white paper is redy to the print] |
A dyall of dayly Contemplacion, or deuine exercise of the mind | ||
[Right as white paper is redy to the print]
Right as white paper is redy to the print,Of blacke and blew faire and foule Imagery,
So is the soule of man conuenient,
To good and euill addict vndoubtedly,
But sythen Vertue hath suche difficulty,
Men learne the sooner to be vicious.
In lacke of labour we flowe in folly,
For slothfull sottes can not be vertuous.
