Reading edition

In “Lusty Juventus” the Devil is introduced, saying,—

“Oh, oh! full well I know the cause That my estimation doth thus decay: The old people would believe still in my laws, But the younger sort lead them a contrary way. They will not believe, they plainly say, In old traditions made by men; But they will live as the Scripture teacheth them.”

Hawkins’s Old Plays, Vol. I. p. 152.
