Poem by John Heywood

Of Peter and Paul

I dwell from the city in suburbs at rowles; 
I pray to Saint Peter to bring me near Powles. 
Alas, thou pray’st all in vain, poor silly fool
Peter will set no hand to bring thee to Poule.

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
