NOTE10104: Notebook (Verse)

Display  

She that eates hir breakfast in hir bed

and is till none a dressing of hir head

And all Dinner longe doth sit like a bride

And all the day after thinkes of nothing but pride

God may doe much in his mercy to saue hir

But wooe to the man yt is bound to haue hir.

Calendared note from MS Ashmole 211, p. 509 (middle part of page)
