Good dairie doth pleasure, Ill dairie spendes treasure. Dairie. 1 Good huswife in dairie, that needes not be tolde, deserueth hir fee to be paid hir in golde. 2 Ill seruant neglecting what huswiferie saies, deserueth hir fee to be paid hir with baies.[E440] Good droie[E441] woorth much.[1] Marke sluts and such. 3 Good droie to serue hog, to helpe wash, and to milke, more needfull is truelie than some in their silke. 4 Though homelie be milker, let cleanlie be cooke, for a slut and a slouen be knowne by their looke. In dairie no cat, Laie bane for a rat. Traps for rats. 5 Though cat (a good mouser) doth dwell in a house, yet euer in dairie haue trap for a mouse. 6 Take heede how thou laiest the bane for the rats, for poisoning seruant, thy selfe and thy brats.
