VPRIGHTMAN.170

Bene Lightmans to thy quarromes, in what lipken hast thou

lypped in this darkemans, whether in a lybbege or in the strummell?
{85}
God morrowe to thy body, in what house hast thou lyne in all night, whether in a bed,
or in the strawe?

ROGE.

I couched a hogshead in a Skypper this darkemans.

I layd171 me downe to sléepe in a barne this night.

VPRIGHT MAN.172

I towre the strummel trine vpon thy nabchet173 and Togman.

I sée the strawe hang vpon thy cap and coate.

ROGE.

I saye by the Salomon I will lage it of with a gage of benebouse;

then cut to my nose watch.
I sweare by the masse174, I wull washe it of with a quart of good drynke; [leaf 29]175
then saye to me what thou wylt.
M AN. Why, hast thou any lowre in thy bonge to bouse?
Why, hast thou any money in thy purse to drinke?
R OGE. But a flagge, a wyn, and a make.
But a grot, a penny, and a halfe penny.
M AN. Why, where is the kene that hath the bene bouse?
where is the house that hath good drinke?
R OGE. A bene mort hereby at the signe of the prauncer.
A good wyfe here by at the signe of the hors.
M AN. I cutt it is quyer buose, I bousd a flagge the laste dark
mans.
I saye it is small and naughtye drynke. I dranke a groate there the last night.
 R OGE. But bouse there a bord, and thou shalt haue beneship.
But drinke there a shyllinge, and thou shalt haue very good.
Tower ye yander is the kene, dup the gygger, and maund that is
bene shyp.
Se you, yonder is the house, open the doore, and aske for the best. {86}
M AN. This bouse is as benshyp176 as rome bouse.
This drinke is as good as wyne.
Now I tower that bene bouse makes nase nabes.
Now I se that good drinke makes a dronken heade.
Maunde of this morte what bene pecke is in her ken.
Aske of this wyfe what good meate shee hath in her house.
R OGE. She hath a Cacling chete, a grunting chete, ruff Pecke,
cassan, and popplarr of yarum.
She hath a hen, a pyg, baken, chese and mylke porrage.
M AN. That is beneshyp to our watche.
That is very good for vs.
Now we haue well bousd, let vs strike some chete.
Nowe we haue well dronke, let us steale some thinge.
Yonder dwelleth a quyere cuffen, it were beneship to myll hym.
Yonder dwelleth a hoggeshe and choyrlyshe man, it were very well donne to robbe
him.
R OGE. Nowe bynge we a waste to the hygh pad, the ruffmanes is
by.
Naye, let vs go hence to the hygh waye, the wodes is at hand.
M AN. So may we happen on the Harmanes, and cly the Iarke, or
to the quyerken and skower quyaer cramprings, and so to tryning on
the chates.
So we maye chaunce to set in the stockes, eyther be whypped, eyther had

gallowes.
Gerry gan, the ruffian clye thee.
A torde in thy mouth, the deuyll take thee.
 M AN. What, stowe your bene, cofe, and cut benat whydds, and
byng we to rome vyle, to nyp a bong; so shall we haue lowre for the
bousing ken, and when we byng back to the deuseauyel, we wyll
fylche some duddes of the Ruffemans, or myll the ken for a lagge of
dudes.
What, holde your peace, good fellowe, and speake better wordes, and go we to
London, to cut a purse; then shal we haue money for the ale house, and {87} when wee
come backe agayne into the country, wee wyll steale some lynnen clothes of one177
hedges, or robbe some house for a bucke of clothes.

¶ By this lytle ye maye holy and fully vnderstande their

vntowarde talke and pelting speache, mynglede without measure;
and as they haue begonne of late to deuyse some new termes for
certien thinges, so wyll they in tyme alter this, and deuyse as euyll
or worsse. This language nowe beinge knowen and spred abroade,
yet one thinge more I wyll ad vnto, not meaninge to Englyshe the
same, because I learned the same178 of a shameles Doxe, but for
the phrase of speche I set it forth onely.
There was a proude patrico and a nosegent, he tooke his Iockam
in his famble, and a wappinge he went, he dokte the Dell, hee pryge
to praunce, he byngd a waste into the darke mans, he fylcht the
Cofe, with out any fylch man.

Hyle this second Impression was in printinge, it fortuned that
Nycholas Blunte, who called hym selfe Nycholan Gennyns, a
counterefet Cranke, that is spoken of in this booke, was fonde
begging in the whyte fryers on Newe yeares day last past, Anno
domini .1567, and commytted vnto a offescer, who caried hym vnto
the depetye of the ward, which commytted hym vnto the counter;
and as the counstable and a nother would haue caried hym thether,
This counterfet Cranke ran awaye, but one lyghter of fote then the
other ouer toke hym, and so leading him to the counter, where he
remayned three days, and from thence to Brydewell, where before
the maister179 he had his dysgysed aparell put vpon hym, which was
monstrous to beholde, And after stode in Chepesyde with the same

A Stockes to staye sure, and safely detayne,
Lasy lewd Leutterers, that lawes do offend,
Impudent persons, thus punished with payne,

[Headnote: HARMON. THE ROGE’S END.]

[lf 30, bk]
A whyp is a whysker, that wyll wrest out blood,
Of backe and of body, beaten right well.
Of all the other it doth the most good,
Experience techeth, and they can well tell.
 ¶ O dolefull daye! nowe death draweth nere,
Hys bytter styng doth pearce me to the harte. {90}
I take my leaue of all that be here,
Nowe piteously playing this tragicall parte.
Neither stripes nor teachinges in tyme could conuert,
wherefore an ensample let me to you be,
And all that be present, nowe praye you for me.

† ¶ This counterfet Cranke, nowe vew and beholde,
Placed in pyllory, as all maye well se:
This was he, as you haue hard the tale tolde,
before recorded with great suttylte,
Ibused manye with his inpiete,
his lothsome attyre, in most vgly manner,
was through London caried with dysplayd banner.182

† B. omits this stanza and has inserted the following lines under the cut.
T H is is the fygure of the counterfet Cranke, that is spoken of in this boke of
Roges, called Nycholas Blunt other wyse Nycholas Gennyngs. His tale is in the xvii.
lefe [pp. 55–6] of this booke, which doth showe vnto all that reades it, woundrous

[Headnote: HARMON. CONCLUSION.]

Thus I conclude my bolde Beggars booke,
That all estates most playnely maye see,
As in a glasse well pollyshed to looke,
Their double demeaner in eche degree.
Their lyues, their language, their names as they be,
That with this warning their myndes may be warmed,
To amend their mysdeedes, and so lyue vnharmed.

A Sermon in Praise of Thieves and Thievery.

[Lansdowne MS. 98, leaf 210.]

A sermon made by Parson Haben vppon a mold hill at Hartely

Row,184 at the Comaundment of vij. theves, whoe, after they had
robbed him, Comaunded him to Preache before them.

I Marvell that euerye man will seme to dispraise theverye, and

thinke the doers thereof worthye of Death, when it is a thinge that
Cometh nere vnto vertve, and is vsed of all men, of all sortes and in
all countryes, and soe comaunded and allowed of god himselfe
which thinge, because I cannot soe sapiently shewe vnto you a185
soe shorte a tyme and in soe shorte a place, I shall desire you,
gentle theves, to take in good parte this thinge that at this tyme
Cometh to minde, not misdoubtinge but you of your good
knowledge are able to ad more vnto the same then this which I at
this tyme shall shewe vnto you. ffirst, fortitude and stoutnes,
Courage, and boldnes of stomacke, is Compted of some a vertue;
which beinge graunted, Whoe is he then that will not Iudge theves
vertuous, most stoute, most hardye? I most, withoute feare. As for
stealinge, that is a thinge vsuall:—whoe stealeth not? ffor not only
you that haue besett me, but many other in many places. Men,
Woemen, and Children, Riche and poore, are dailye of that facultye,
As the hange {94} man of Tiborne can testifye. That it is allowed of
god himselfe, it is euident in many storyes of the Scriptures. And if
you liste to looke in the whole Course of the bible, you shall finde
that theves haue bin belovid of god. ffor Iacobe, when he Came
oute of Mesopotamia, did steale his vncles lambes; the same Iacobe
stale his brother Esawes blessinge; and that god saide, “I haue
chosen Iacob and refused Esawe.” The Children of Isarell, when they
came oute of Egippe, didd steale the Egippsians Iewells and ringes,
and god comaunded the[m] soe to doe. David, in the dayes of
Ahemel[e]ch the preiste, came into the temple and stole awaye the
shewe bread; And yet god saide, “this is a man accordinge to myne
owne harte.” Alsoe Christe himsellfe, when he was here vppon earth,
did take an asse, a Colte, which was none of his owne. And you
knowe that god saide, “this is my nowne sone, in whome I delighte.”
Thus maye you see that most of all god delighteth in theves. I
marvell, therefore, that men can despise your lives, when that you
are in all poynts almost like vnto Christe; for Christ hade noe
dwellinge place,—noe more haue you. Christe, therefore, at the
laste, was laide waite for in all places,—and soe are you. Christe
alsoe at the laste was called for,—and soe shall you be. He was
condemned,—soe shall you be. Christe was hanged,—soe shall you
be. He descended into hell,—so shall you. But in one pointe you
differ. He assendid into heaven,—soe shall you never, without gods
mercye, Which god graunte for his mercyes sake! Toe whome, with
the sonne and the holye goste, be all honour and glory for euer and
euer. Amen!
After this good sermon ended, which Edefied them
soe muche, Theye hadd soe muche Compassion on him,
That they gave him all his mony agayne, and vij s more
for his sermon.

184 MS Rew. Hartley Row is on the South-Western road past Bagshot. The stretch
of flat land there was the galloping place for coaches that had to make up time.

A Sermon in Praise of Thieves and Thievery.

[MS. Cott. Vesp. A xxv. leaf 53]

A sermo of parson Hyberdyne which he made att the

commandemente of certen theves, after thay had Robbed hym,
besydes hartlerowe, in hamshyer, in the feldes, ther standinge
vpon a hy where as a wynde myll had bene, in the presens of
the theves that robbed hym, as followithe.
the sermon as followethe
I greatly merve that any man wy presume to dysprase
theverie, and thynke the dooeres therof to be woorthy of deathe,
consyderinge itt is a thynge that cumithe nere vnto vertue, beinge
vsed of many in a contries, And commendid and allowed of god
hym selfe; the which, thinge, by-cause I cannot compendiously shew
vnto yow at soo shorte a warnynge and in soo sharpe a wether, I
sha desyer yow, gentle audiens of theves, to take in good parte
thes thynges that at thys tyme cumythe to my mynde, not
mysdowtynge but that yow of yowre good knowledge are able to
add mutch more vnto ytt then this which I sha nowe vtter vnto
yow. ffyrst, fortitude, and stowtnes of corage, and also bowldnes of
minde, is commendyd of sume men to be a vertue; which, beinge
grawnted, who is yt then that wy not iudge theves to be vertused?
for thay be of a men moste stowte and hardy, and moste withowte
feare; for thevery is a thynge moste vsua emonge a men, for not
only yow that be here presente, but many other in dyuerse places,
bothe men and wemen and chyldren, rytche and poore, are dayly of
thys facultye, {95} as the hangman of tyboorne can testyfye: and that
yt is allowed of god hym selfe, as it is euydente in many storayes of
[the] scriptures; for yf yow looke in the hole cowrse of the byble,
yow shall fynde that theves haue bene beloued of gode; for Iacobe,
whan he came owte of Mesopotamia, dyd steale his vncle labanes
kyddes; the same Iacobe also dyd steale his brothe[r] Esaues
blessynge; and yett god sayde, “I haue chosen Iacobe and refused
Esau.” The chyldren of ysrae , whan they came owte of Egypte, dyd
steale the egiptians iewelles of syluer and gowlde, as god
commawnded them soo to doo. Davyd, in the days of Abiather the
hygh preste, did cume into the temple and dyd steale the hallowed
breede; and yet god saide, “Dauid is a ma euen after myne owne
harte.” Chryste hym selfe, whan he was here on the arthe, did take
an asse and a cowlte that was none of hys; and yow knowe that god
said of hym, “this is my beloued soone, in whome I delighte.” thus
yow may see that god delightithe in theves. but moste of a I
marve that men can dispyse yow theves, where as in a poyntes
almoste yow be lyke vnto christe hym selfe: for chryste had noo
dwellynge place; noo more haue yow. christe wente frome towne to
towne; and soo doo yow. christe was hated of a men, sauynge of
his freendes; and soo are yow. christe was laid waite vpon in many
places; and soo are yow. chryste at the lengthe was cawght; and
soo sha yow bee. he was browght before the iudges; and soo sha
yow bee. he was accused; and soo sha yow bee. he was
condempned; and soo sha yow bee. he was hanged; and so sha
yow bee. he wente downe into he ; and soo sha yow dooe. mary!
in this one thynge yow dyffer frome hym, for he rose agayne and
assendid into heauen; and soo sha yow neuer dooe, withowte
godes greate mercy, which gode grawnte yow! to whome with the
father, and the soone, and the hooly ghoste, be a honore and
glorye, for euer and euer. Amen!

their Doxes, the deuises of Priggers, the names of the base
