Each mess at six pence[[230]] booked shall be

At the counting-house, with other meiny.

If the cook would say that there were more,

That is the cause he has it in score;[[230]]

The panter also if he would strive

For reward that set shall be belive.[[231]]

When bread fails at board about,

The marshal gars set, without a doubt,

More bread that called is a reward,

So shall it be proved before stewárd.
