Epigram 14.

The deuill is a knaue.

I Shell dislikes the surplusse and the cope,
And calls them idle vestments of the Pope:
And mistresse Mande would goe to Church full faine,
But that the corner cap makes her refraine:
And Madam Idle is offended deepe,
The Preacher speakes, so lowde, she cannot sleepe:

Lo, thus the deuill sowes contentious seed, Whence sects, & schismes, and heresies do breed.
