Where been those Nobles, Perkin, vvhere been they?
Where been those vvorthies, Perkin, vvhich of yore,
This gentle Ladie did so much adore?
And for her Impes did vvith such care puruey,
they been ysvvadled in their vvinding sheete,
and she (I thinke) is buried at their feete.

Oh vvorthy vvorld, vvherein those vvorthies liued,
Vnvvorthy vvorld, of such men so vnvvorthy,
Vnvvorthy age, of all the most vnvvorthy,
Which art of these so vvorthy men depriued,
and invvardly in vs is nothing lesse,
Than outvvardly that, vvhich vve most professe.
