That staynd his fayth, and faylde me at my neede,

For gayne of golde, as vsurers do God knowes,

Who cannot spare the dropping of their nose?

I should haue slayne the slaue that seru’d me so,

O God forbid my hands were brued in blood,

Should I desire the harme of friend or foe?

Nay better were to wishe mine en’my good:

For if my death I throughly vnderstood,

I should make short the course I haue to run,

Since rest is got when worldly toyle is done.
