[God graunt al states to keepe with diligence]

God graunt al states to keepe with diligence,
In conscience good the most assured stay,
Of treasures heauenly highest in excellence,
VVhich may our mindes chearefull make alway,
That lyfe from learnyng doo not goe astray,
Ne yet with shiftes of cloked collusion,
Our selues and our freendes corrupt we may,
To turne vnto our owne confusion.
