How daungerous it were to stande in his lyght[1665],
Ye wolde not[1666] dele with hym, thowgh[1667] that ye myght,
For by his deuellysshe drift and graceles prouision
An hole reame[1668] he is able to set at deuysion:
For when he spekyth fayrest, then thynketh he moost yll;
Full gloryously can he glose, thy mynde for to fele; 760
He wyll set men a feightynge[1669] and syt[1670] hymselfe styll,
And smerke, lyke a smythy kur, at[1671] sperkes of steile;
He[1672] can neuer leue warke whylis it is wele;
To tell all his towchis it were to grete wonder;
