Her lady, barefoot this bakes trimly, Nay but I escaped more finely, For I under this hedge one while did stay, Then in this bush, then in that way: Then slipped I behind them among all the rest, And seemed to common to, of things with the best, But so it did happen, that all things were well, But hazard it is, lest time will truth tell. Tut, tut, that was but by hap, and if it be so, Well sith it was in hazard then let it go. Content by my honesty, than farewell all woe. Come out dog, ye speak happily of truth if it be so, Now master Haphazard, fare you well for a season, Let my council at no time with you be geason. No by the Gods, be sure not so. Well sith here is no company have with ye to Jericho. What so the Gods they have decreed to work and do by me? I marvel why judge Apius he, such greetings lets me see: I served have his seat, and state, I have maintained his weal, I have suppressed the rebels stout, I bear to him such zeal, And now he sends to me such charge, upon my life and lands, Without demur, or further pause, or ere aught things be scanned, That I in haste, with posting speed, to Court I do repair, To answer that alleged is, before his judgement Chair, Some Histories they do express, when such mishaps do fall, They should have tokens many a one, I have not one but all: My jewels sometime precious, do vade and bear no hew, My senses they do shun there course, my lights do burn as blue: My willing wights are warred slow, that once were swift in speed My heart it throbs in wondrous sort, my nose doth often bleed: My dreadful dreams do draw my woe and hateful hazard hale, These tokens be of evil hap, this is the old wives tale: But yet O thou Virginius, whose hoary hears are old, Didst treason never yet commit, of this thou mayst be bold: In Mars his games, in martial feats, thou wast his only aid, The huge Carrebd his hazards thou, for him was oft assayed: Was Silla's force by thee oft shunned, or yet Adrice land, Laceface child that Minotaur, did cause thee ever stand: To pleasure him, to serve thy leech, to keep all things upright, Thou God above, then what is it, that yieldeth me this spite? Sith nothing need misdoubted be, where grounded cause is none, I enter will judge Apius gate, rejecting care and moan: But stay Virginius, lo, thy Prince doth enter into place, Oh sovereign Lord, and rightful judge, the Gods do save thy grace,

er lady, barefoote this bakes trimly, Nay but I eſcaped more finely, For I vnder this bedge one while dyd ſtay, Then in this buſhe, then in that way: Then ſlipt I behind them among all the reſt, And ſéemed to common to, of things with the beſt, But ſo it did happen, that all things were well, But hazard it is, leaſt time will truth tell. Tut, tut, that was but by hap, and if it be ſo, Well ſith it was in hazard then let it goo. Content by my honeſtie, then farewell all wo.
