Washing.
Take heede when ye wash, Else run in the lash. Washing. 1 Maids, wash well and wring well, but beat ye wot how, if any lack beating, I feare it be yow. 2 In washing by hand, haue an eie to thy boll, for launders and millers, be quick of their toll. Drie sunne, drie winde, Safe binde, safe finde. 3 Go wash well, saith Sommer, with sunne I shall drie, go wring well, saith Winter, with winde so shall I. 4 To trust without heede is to venter a ioint, giue tale and take count, is a huswifelie point. Where many be packing, Are manie things lacking. 5 Where hens fall a cackling, take heede to their nest, where drabs fall a whispring, take heede to the rest. 6 Through negligent huswifes, are many things lacking, and Gillet suspected will quickly be packing.
