[Vnconstant Fortune partiall in thy guifts]

Vnconstant Fortune partiall in thy guifts,
Who puts poore gentle men vnto their shifts,
And crossest them, and them vncrosse againe,
For to be crost you know is a hellish paine,
But to be vncrost, why ti's ten times worse,
To haue more siluer on the sword then purse.
