A merry song, and a very song.
SOspitati pickt our purse with Popish illusio,Purgatory, scala coeli, pardons cum Iu∣bilio,Pilgrimage-gate, where Idoles sate with all abominatio,Channons, Fryers, common lyers, that filthy generatio,Nunnes huling, pretty puling, as Cat in milke-pannio:See what knauerie was in Monkerie, and what superstitio:Becking, belling, ducking, yelling, was their whole Religio,And when women came vnto them, fewe went sine filio.But Abbeyes all are now downe fall, Dei beneficio,And we doe pray day by day, that all abominatio may come to desolatio.
Amen.
