Marry sir, this day whereof we do entreat, Is a day of some notable show. When the Courtiers in their bravery shallbe, Before their Prince, some show to make: If such a day, wealthiness might see, He hopeth then, some money to take. For without cost, they may not be brave, And many lack money, as he doth suppose: Wherefore at some, a good hand he would have, I warrant thee, by none he hopeth to lose. Tush man doubt not, such days there will come, That matter thou needest not to fear. To here of such days, I would ride and run, So glad I would be, of such days to hear. Oh with these Courtiers, I love to deal well, Or with other young Gentlemen, who have pounds or lands: For whether I do lend them, or my wares to them sell. I am sure to win largely, at their hands. And specially, where in need they do stand, Then in faith I do pinch them home: When I see they must needs have money out of hand, And that other shift, to work they have none. Why that is the way sir to come aloft, Great wealth thereby, I know you do get. I warrant thee no time, I drive of, Neither for any man's saying, the same will I let. Well sirs I must now leave of this talk, And I must bid you both twain adieu. Soft master Greediness whether do you walk, What sir I pray you, one word with you. Towards Paul's Cross, from hence I do go, Perchance some profit there I may meet. To Paul's Cross, what there will you do, Do you the Preachers words so well like. Tush for the preaching I pass not a pin, It is not the matter wherefore I do go: For that goeth out whereas it comes in, But herein my meaning, to thee I will show. You know that many thither do come, Wherefore perchance, such may be my hap: Of my ill debtors there to spy some, Whom without delay, by the heels I will clap. Why sir, and will you arrest them there? While they at sermon preaching be. Will I quoth you, wherefore should I fear, It is best taking them, while I may them see. Yea by'r Lady sir, full wisely you say, Take them while you may them get: Or else perchance it willbe many a day, Or on them again your eye you shall set. I remember what you have said, Tide tarrieth no man, mark you that: Wherefore no time herein shallbe delayed, Therefore sirs adieu to long I do chat. Now that here is none but you and I, I pray thee deliver to me my part, Dispatch and give me it by and by: And that I say with a willing heart. I know no part I have of thine, Therefore of me thou gettest no part.
