For naperie sope and candle, salt and sauce, tinker[2] and cooper, brasse and pewter. 9 One part thy wife for needfull things doth craue. 10 Thy selfe and childe, the last one part would haue. [11] Who minds to cote, vpon this note, may easily find ynough: What charge and paine, to litle gaine, doth follow toiling plough. [12] Yet fermer may thanke God and say, for yeerlie such good hap: Well fare the plough,[E376] that sends ynough to stop so many a gap.
