And who can worke beste now shall be asayde;
A cronell of lawrell with verduris light and darke
I haue deuysyd for Skelton, my clerke;
For to his seruyce I haue suche regarde,
That of our bownte we wyll hym rewarde:
For of all ladyes he hath the library, 780
Ther names recountyng in the court of Fame
Of all gentylwomen he hath the scruteny,[1678]
In Fames court reportynge the same;
For yet of women he neuer sayd shame,
