And teche them howe they sholde syt ydyll,

To pyke theyr fyngers all the day longe;

So in theyr eyre I synge them a songe,

And make them so longe to muse, 1240

That some of them renneth strayght to the stuse;

To thefte and bryboury I make some fall,

And pyke a locke and clyme a wall;

And where I spy a nysot gay,

That wyll syt ydyll all the day,

And can not set herselfe to warke,
