page 19 of 54 (35%)
As to bylde churches and make bye wayes
Such deedes mans soule doth saue

+Health+ Yea, but yet ye must marke one thynge
yf these goodes came with wronge doyng
Shall ye haue heauen for so spendynge 130
Or yet any mede.
Nay nay except that man himselfe doo meeke
And make resystance the ryght honour to seeke
Els all such good dedes is not woth a leeke
welth hereof take heede.

+wealth.+ Why thinkest thou that all men which hath welth
Getteth theyr goodes with brybry and stealeth
Thy reporte is nought therfore Helthe
I counsell thee to say the best.

+Health+ So I wyll, but yet I must say true 140
And now a lyttle more I wyll say to you
Much sorowe and care welth doth brewe
He is seldome in rest.
when a man is a lyttle hit and welthy
And hath in his cheste treasures plentye
Then wyl he wrangle, and do shreudly
By his power and might.
With his neighboures he wyll go to lawe
And a wreke his malyce for valew of strawe
welth is fykle and out nf awe 150
wylfull in wronge or ryght
