The rayne never resteth, so longe be the showres, 515

From tyme of begynnyng tyl foure & twenty howres;

And, ende whan it shall, at nyght or at none,

An-other begynneth as soone as that is done.

Such revell of rayne ye knowe well inough,

Destroyeth the wynde, be it never so rough, 520

Wherby, syns our myllys be come to styll standynge,

Now maye we wynd-myllers go evyn to hangynge.

A myller! with a moryn[160] and a myschyefe!

Who wolde be a myller? As good be a thefe!
