<L>_IF thou, my <HI>Servant,</HI> wilt thy <HI>Ma&s;ter</HI> plea&s;e,</L>
<L>Thou mu&s;t ob&s;erve and keep &s;uch <HI>Lawes</HI> as the&s;e;</L>
<L>_BE true and tru&s;ty, let thy hands be cleare:</L>
<L>And to purloyne thy <HI>Ma&s;ters</HI> goods forbeare.</L>
<L>I hate a <HI>Lyer,</HI> and a Saucie <HI>Knave:</HI></L>
<L>And in a <HI>Gaim&s;ter</HI> I no plea&s;ure have.</L>
<L>I Hate the <HI>Man</HI> that hath a vanting <HI>Vaine:</HI></L>
<L>And <HI>Him,</HI> that loves anothers fame to <HI>Staine.</HI></L>
<L>I like not <HI>Him,</HI> that is unapt to <HI>Learne:</HI></L>
<L>Nor <HI>Him,</HI> that <HI>Grudging,</HI> doth his wages <HI>Earne.</HI></L>
<L>The <HI>Churli&s;h,</HI> and the <HI>Envious</HI> man I <HI>hate:</HI></L>
<L>And <HI>Him</HI> I love not, that doth &s;ow <HI>Debate.</HI></L>
<L>Sly <HI>Knaves,</HI> that would my <HI>Secrets</HI> over-look:</L>
<L>Proud <HI>Fools,</HI> nor talking <HI>Fools;</HI> I cannot brook.</L>
<L>I tru&s;t not <HI>Him,</HI> that would with <HI>Fauning</HI> plea&s;e:</L>
<L>Nor <HI>Him,</HI> that loves his <HI>Belly</HI> and his <HI>Ea&s;e.</HI></L>
<L>The <HI>fal&s;e, deceitfull</HI> man I hate as <HI>Hell:</HI></L>
<L>Only with <HI>Me</HI> the <HI>hone&s;t</HI> man &s;hall dwell.</L>
<L>_Hee's <HI>Gentle, Faithfull,</HI> willing to <HI>Obey:</HI></L>
<L>And well de&s;erves, to <HI>Rule</HI> another day.</L>
