Time drawing to night, See all things go right. Euening workes. 1 When hennes go to roost go in hand to dresse meate, serue hogs and to milking and some to serue neate. 2 Where twaine be ynow, be not serued with three, more knaues in a companie worser they bee. Make lackey to trudge, Make seruant thy drudge. 3 For euerie trifle leaue ianting thy nag, but rather make lackey of Jack boie thy wag. 4 Make seruant at night lug in wood or a log, let none come in emptie but slut and thy dog. False knaue readie prest, All safe is the best. 5 Where pullen vse nightly to pearch in the yard, there two legged foxes keepe watches and ward. 6 See cattle well serued, without and within, and all thing at quiet ere supper begin. Take heede it is needeful, True pittie is meedeful. 7 No clothes in garden, no trinkets without, no doore leaue vnbolted, for feare of a dout. 8 Thou woman whom pitie becommeth the best, graunt all that hath laboured time to take rest.
