    Jack Juggler (Quarto 1)

    1200As you sawe ryght now by example playne
    An other felowe being a counterfeat page
    Brought the gentylmans seruaunt out of his braine
    And made hym graunt yt him selfe was fallen in dotage
    Baryng hym selfe in hand that he dyd rage
    1205And when he could not bryng that to pa s s e by reason
    He made him graunt it an saye so by compulsyon

    Therfore happy are they that can beware
    Into whose handes they fall by any suche chaunce
    which if they do they hardlye escape care
    1210Troble,miserie,and wofull greuaunce
    And thus I make an end, cõmitting you to his gidaunce
    That made, ∧ redemed vs all, and to you yt be now here
    I praye god graunt,and send many a good newe yere.

    Finis.

    1215 P Imprinted at London in Temes strete at the Vintre
