And I pray you to forgiue me the ſame

yf it pleafe youto keepe my company.

¶ Here entreth lyberty with a ſong & after ſpeaketh

libert Why tary ſyrs whether are ye going
I ſee well ye looked not for my comming
Loe, out of ſyght out of remembryng
Abſence is cauſe of ſtraungnes, 200
What looke ye on werwhy are ye ſo ſtraunge
From your fellow liberty, doth your minds chaūge
In your company I was wont to range
What nedes all this buſines,

wealth By liberty now I doo not ſet
Seyng that helth and I am met
As feloweh together no man ſhall let
Me for to loue hym beſt.

liberty. Let me heare what ye do ſay
Then ye are about to caſt me away 210
How happes this? mary then I may
Goe pyke ſtrawes and take me reſt.
I pray you tell me whom I haue offended
yf I haue made a faute it ſhalde amended
with ſo ſhorte warning let me not be voyded
I crow yet ye do but iest.

Helth. Why do ye make this cauelacion
we entende to make no alteracyon
welth and I haue had communication
He is my freende of olde. 220

liberty What was the matter, I pray you tell
Me thinkes I ought to be of counſel
Or els I promyſe you ye doo not well
With you I ſhould beholde.

Welth. The matter is doone we are agreed
To reſaon it more it ſhall not neede
O brother helth, thou art in deede
More preciouſer than golde.

liberty. Gods bodi how commeth this gere to pas
I am caſt out at the cartes arſe 230
The worlde is nothing as it was
For I am here refuſed

Health Why be you angry that we doo agree
Then are ye not wyſe, for ifye loue me
I will loue hym agayne, ſo it ſhould be
Or els I were myſaduised

yllibert Then of my loue ye ſet no ſtore
My company I ſee well ye looked notfore
Farewell I wyll get me out of the doore
yet I am your betters and ſo am I called. 240

wealth Such preſumptuouſe wordes wyll haue a fall
your comparyſon is but feble and ſmall
What can ye do nothyng at all
As you haue reputed.

liberti. What were ye both two, were not I.
Wretches and caytyfes, looke not ſo hye
Thinke no ſcorne hardly
For I may be your peare
yf welth haue neuer ſo much lubſtaunce
Lacking Libertye and werr in durance 250
Within a whyce, I am in aſſurance
ye woulde pray me come nere.
Yf Helth be neuer ſo luſt and ſtronge
yet if Lyberty were kept from him longe
Then ſorow and care wolde be his ſonge.
yt would abate your cheare.
Fye of welth which lacketh lybertye
Fye of Helth and be in captiuitie
Fye of riches and lack good company
Lyberty hath no pere, 260

Helth. Wyll ye heare how he doth clatter?
What neede ye to rehearſe all this matter.
ye know that we twayne afore any other.
Lyberty muſt nedes haue ſtyll.
Lybertie on vs is glade to wayte
ye ſtande to farre in your owne conceyte
I wys lybertye ye ran make no bayte
To catche vs at your will.

liberty. Now there ye lye, I can ſuffer no longer
Welth for Lybertye doth loboure euer 270
And helth for Libertye is a great ſtore
Therfore ſet me not ſo lyght

wealth Libertye I pray the reaſon no more

In dede ofliberty it is great ſuter
Therfore welcome by this lyght

liberty, Now I thanke you both full kindly
your ſtrange wordes alytle did greue me
And now at your cōmaūdement I am redy
And at your owne wyll. 280

¶ Here entreth with ſome iest yllwyll

Wyll.. Mary I am come at the firſt call
Wyll, your owne man haue me who ſhall
For I am will ſeruaunt to you al
Ye ſhall not neede to ſende for me.

Welth. Who is acquanted with this man
He is very homely and lytle good he can
To come in here ſo boldly, then
Dryue him away quickly,

Wyll. Why, I cam not tyll I was called 290
your owne wyll openly ye named
Then I came a pace leſt I ſhould be blamed
Therfore I pray you let me byde ſtyll,

ealth Whoſe wyll, or what wyll, doth he meane
Thou art not my wyl, I forſake thee cleane
My wyl and their wylles is often ſene
Our wylles can none yll

yet by my trouth I am your euyll wyll
your wil, & your will, & your will, therfore keepe me 300
I loue ye by goddes mother,

liberty. This is a ſtraunge ſaying vnto me
My wyl, your wyll, and his wyll, this cannot be
For in our wyles is a great diuerſitie
For one is not lyke another,

Wyll. Yet by Chriſt your owne wyl I am
The maddeſt wyl, and the merieſt, than
For goddes ſake now, let me be your man
Tyl ye haue better acquaintaunce.

And oweth to vs good wyl and mynde
Some kindes agayne then let hym finde
Let him haue ſome furderaunce

Wyll. By god ſir and I durſt be ſo bolde
Arquaintance of this man clayme I would

Health How fo? let me here that I pray thee hartly

Wyll. Wyl and lybertyeis, of aunciterie olde
with out lyberfye, wili dare not bebolde 320
And where wyl lacketh, lybertye is full colde
Thyrfore wyl and lybertye muſt nedes be of kyn.

liberti. In dede as he ſaythe it may well be
For wyl euer longeth vnto lybrtye
Therfore good freende welcome to me
I praye you al be good to him And goeth out
