He used fewe words, but cold discours
Both wysely and dyvinely.
His lyving meane,[‡] his charges greate,
His daughters well bestowed;
Although that he were left in debt,
In fine he nothing owed.
But dyed in rich and happie state,
Beloved of man and woman
And (what is yeate much more than that)
He was envied[§] of no man.
