11Thinke you to seduce me so with words that haue no meaning, Think'st thou to seduce me then with words that have no meaning?
22Parets can learne so to speake our voice by peeces gleaning, Parats so can learne to prate our speech by pieces gleaning.
33Nurses teach their children so about the time of weaning. Nurses teach their children so, about the time of weaning.

55Learne to speake first, then to woe, to woeing much pertaineth, Lerne to speake first, then to wooe, to wooing much pertayneth:
66He that hath not Art to hide, soone falters when he faineth, Hee that courts us wanting Arte, soon falters when he faineth:
77And as one that wants his wits, he smiles when he complaineth. Lookes a-squint on his discourse, and smiles when he complaineth.

99If with wit we be deceiued, our fals may be excused, Skilfull Anglers hide their hookes, fit bytes for every season;
1010Seeming good with flatterie grac't, is but of few refused, But with crooked pins fish thou, as babes that doe wnmat reason,
1111But of all accurst are they that are by fooles abused.Gogoinsgudgeons onely can be csught with such poore triches of treason.
12
13Ruth forgive me if I err'd from human hearts compassion,
14When I laught sometimes too much to see thy foolish fashion:
15But alas, who lesse could doe that found so good occasion?
