Gorbo.
What mayst thou be, that old vvynkin de word,Whose thred-bare wits o'rworne with melancholly,Once so delightsome at the shepheards boord,But now forlorne with thy selues self-wild folly.
I think thou dot'st in thy gray-bearded age,Or brusd with sinne, for thy youths sin art sory,And vow'st for thy? a solemne pilgrimage,To holy Hayles or Patricks Purgatory.
Come sit we downe vnder this Hawthorne tree.The morrowes light shall lend vs daie enough,And tell a tale of Gawen or Sir Guy,Of Robin Hood, or of good Clema Clough.

Or else some Romant vnto vs areed,Which good olde Godfrey taught thee in thy youth,Of noble Lords and Ladies gentle deede,Or of thy loue, or of thy lasses truth.
