TWELVE FOUL FAULTS.

A wise man living like a drone, an old man not devout,

Youth disobedient, rich men that are charity without,

A shameless woman, vicious lords, a poor man proudly stout,

Contentious Christians, pastors that their functions do neglect,

A wicked king, no discipline, no laws men to direct,

Are twelve the foulest faults that most commonwealths infect.
