What be the words that I shall now proclaim? I have them written here I will recite them by name: Say after me and then you can not miss, You must speak a loud that they may know what it is. Shall I in my man's voice or in my boy's voice it declare? So that it be heard I do not greatly care. All manner of men that have either matter or suit, Let them come hither between nine & ten, & none against them shall dispute: So they come from money then they shallbe heard quickly, Be their matter never so wrong, they shallbe sped and not tarry: And that they make speed, he heartily them prays, For he can not tarry past two or three days. Do you think I shall have any suitors at all, I think my market willbe very small. If you have no suitors on you for to call, I am sure shortly the heavens will fall: They will not stand I think all in this hall, Which will come right shortly and still hereafter shall. Marry Sir the more the better for me, If they be ten thousand they shall speed for money. What good fellow is that which knocks so boldly? Marry I am a suitor that comes from money, My name if you list to know, is Gregorie graceless That can cut a man's purse and look in his face. If your parsonage be as handsome as your qualities be good. The hemp for your hanging begins for to bud. Let him in I pray thee, let me see what he is, If he come from money he shall not speed amiss. God save you my lord, I am come from money, Who wills you to help me out of my troubles quickly. What is the matter rehearse it in brief: Mine neighbours say they will hang me because I am a thief. The last night I chanced to take a budget with two hundredth pound, And maimed also the party that they think he will die, The budget with money I did hide in the ground: So that they missed it although they took me, Therefore for your aid to you now I fly: And the one half shall you have for saving my life, And the other must keep my house, my children and my wife. Deliver the money to this my friend Sin, And take this token to show that with me thou hast been. This is good luck at the first beginning, To have so much money it is an honest living: methinks suitors in coming are very slack, Such as this first was I think I shall lack: I could sit in the cold a good while I swear, Or I would be weary such suitors to hear. My Lord, All for money, here is another cheat, It is better than the first, yea or else as great.
