Poem by John Heywood

Of a Man of Law and His Wife

You, being a pleader at law excellent,
Yet hath your wife brought you to an exigent.
Pray her to let fall th’action at law now,
Or else, so God help me! she will overlaw yow.

1. Of Holding an Inn
2. Of a Hand-gun and a Hand
3. Of Treading a Shoe Awry
4. What God Said to One. Otherwise. Thou art one of them to whom God bade Ho!
5. A Reward to a Service Man
