Now is Culham hithe i-come to an ende And al the contre the better and no man the worse, Few folke there were coude that way mende, But they waged a cold or payed of ther purse; An if it were a beggar had breed in his bagge, He schulde be right soone i-bid to goo aboute; And if the pore penyless the hireward would have, A hood or a girdle and let him goo aboute.

In the ende one of them was drunke, which had beene aboord of our ship all the time that we had beene there: and that was strange to them; for they could not tell how to take it. The canoes and folke went all on shoare: but some of them came againe, and brought stropes of beades: some had sixe, seven, eight, nine, ten; and gave him. So he slept all night quietly.

For giff he be of so grete excellence That he of every wight hath care and charge, What have I gilt+ to him, or done offense, That I am thral'd, and birdis go at large? * Setten, incline.

Drinke is their whole desire, the pot is all their pride, The sobrest head doth once a day stand needfull of a guide.

Most of them can play on the Lute, and to make that kinde of pastime peculiar vnto them onely, all other in the cities where they doe liue be forbidden that instrument, the Curtisans and blinde folke onely accepted, who be musicians and can play.

The Psalmist says, 'Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head. But you see the peacemaker must be righteous himself, or he hasn't the oil. Love is the oil; the love of Jesus." "Mr. Folke," said Nettie, timidly, "wasn't Jesus a peacemaker?" "The greatest that ever lived!" said Mr.

And tho desertes duren wel it 13 journeyes. In that desert duellyn manye of Arrabyenes, that men clepen Bedoynes and Ascopardes. And thei ben folke fulle of alle evylle condiciouns.

The English poet fixes the date of the bridge, 4 Henry V and thus tells its story: King Henry the fyft, in his fourthe yere He hath i-founde for his folke a brige in Berkshire For cartis with cariage may goo and come clere, That many wynters afore were marred in the myre.

Folke, his eyes lighting up with pleasure at her question. "He made all the peace there is in the world, for he bought it, when he died on the cross to reconcile man with God. All our drops of oil were bought with drops of blood." "And," said Nettie, hesitatingly, "Mr. Folke, isn't that one way of being a peacemaker?" "What?" "I mean, to persuade people to be at peace with him?"
