[109.]

Of malus homo.

Malus homo, out of S. Augustine.

Of naughtie man, I read, two sundrie things are ment,
The ton is man, the other naught, which ought him to repent.
The man we ought to loue, bicause of much therein,
The euill in him we ought to hate, euen as a filthie sin.
So doth thy daily sinnes the heauenly Lord offend,
But when thou dost repent the same, his wrath is at an end.


[110.]

Of two sorts of people.

Of two sorts of men, the tone good, and tother bad, out of S. Augustine.

Since first the world began, there was and shall be still,
Of humane kind two sundrie sorts, [thon] good and [thother] ill:
Which till the iudgement day, shall here togither dwell,
But then the good shall vp to heauen, the bad shall downe to hell.
