Poem by John Heywood

Of Holding an Inn

Being holden in Newgate, thou canst not be 
An innholder, for thine inn holdeth thee.

1. Of a Hand-gun and a Hand
2. Of Treading a Shoe Awry
3. Of Waiting
4. Of Buying a Mortar
5. A Loss by the Devil’s Death. Otherwise. 4. The devil is dead: who shall his land rightly win?
