With golden nets in ryot I would fishe,

And purple lines to drawe my nets I had;

I vsed eke for pleasures many a dishe,

And was with naught but lust and mischiefe glad:

Though these thinges made the Romaynes hartes full sad,

They durst not speake: for who so did complayne,

Without respect or sentence more, was slayne.
