¶If he be addict to vice,
¶Quickly him, they will intice.
¶If to Women hee be bent,
400They haue at Commaundement.
¶But if Fortune once doe frowne,
¶Then farewell his great renowne:
¶They that fawnd on him before.
¶Vse his company no more.
405Hee that is thy friend indeede,
¶Hee will helpe thee in thy neede:
¶If thou sorrow, he will weepe:
¶If thou wake, hee cannot sleepe:
¶Thus of euery griefe, in hart
410Hee, with thee, doeth beare a part.
¶Faithfull friend, from flatt'ring foe.
