The summe of all.

[without the feare of god, no man can be lust]

without the feare of god, no man can be lust,
nor yet rightly rule his corrupted nature:
Feare strongly mortifieth all filthy lust,
feare findeth entraunce, into a life most pure,
which feare vppon loue dependeth all sure.
or elles feare without loue encreaseth hatred.
and whome men doth feare, they wishe were perishes.
