Poem by John Heywood

Wisdom and Folly

Thy wisdom and folly both, nay no one 
Can be contained in volumes great nor small. 
Thy wisdom being none, occupieth place none; 
Thy folly being all, occupieth place all.

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. Of Heads
