Hyt is no lytyll bordon to bere a grete mylle stone: 330

To bryng all the see into a cheryston pytte,

To nombyr all the sterrys in the fyrmament,

To rule ix realmes by one mannes wytte,

To suche thynges ympossybyll reason cannot consente:

Muche money, men sey, there madly he hathe spente:

Parrot, ye may prate thys vndyr protestacion,

Was neuyr suche a senatour syn Crystes incarnacion.

Wherfor he may now come agayne as he wente,

Non sine postica sanna, as I trowe,
