    Jack Juggler (Quarto 1)

    That I know is no wyse po s s ible for to bee
    Careawaye
    890Now by my truth mai ster I haue told you no lie
    And all these folkes knowith as well as I
    I had no sooner knoked at the gate
    But straight wayes he had me by the pate
    Therfore yf you bet me tyll I fart & shyt agayne
    895you shall not cause me for any payne
    But I woll affirme as I said before
    That when I came nere a nother stode at ye dore
    Boungrace
    Why yu naughtye vyllayne dare st yu affirme to me
    900That which was neuer syne nor hereafter shalbe
    That on man may haue too bodies & two faces
    And yt one man at on time may be in two placys
    Tell me dranke st thou any where by the waye
    Careawaie
    905I sh reue me yf I drãke any more thẽ twise to day
    Tyll I met euen now with that other I
    And withe him I supped and dranke truelye
    But as for you yf you gaue me drinke & meate
    As oftentymes as you do me bete
    910I were the be st fed page in all this Cytie
    But as touchyng that, you haue on me no pitye
    And not onlye I but all that do you sarue
    For meat and drynke maye rather starue
    Boungrace
    915What you saucye mãlypert knaue
    Begine you with your mai ster to prate & raue
    your tonge is lyberall and all out of frame
    I mu st niddes counger it and make it tame
    where is yt other Careaway yt thou said was here
    Care
