SIM SURESBY

IS there any man but I Sym Suresby alone, That would have taken such and enterprise him upon, In such and outrageous tempest as this was. Such a dangerous gulf of the sea to pass. I think verily Neptune's mighty godshyp, Was angry with some that was in our ship, And but for the honesty which in me he found, I think for the others sake we had be drowned. But you on that servant which for his masters wealth Will stick for to hazard both his life and his health. My master Gawyn Goodlucke after me a day Because of the weather, thought best his ship to stay, And now that I have the rough sourges so well passed, God grant I may find all things safe here at last. Then will I think all my travail well spent, Now the first point wherefore my master hath me sent Is to salute dame Christian Constance his wife, Espoused: whom he tendereth no less than his life, I must see how it is with his well or wreng, And whither for him she does not now think long: Then to other friends I have a message or way, And then so to return and meet him on the way. Now will I go k cke that I may dispatch with speed, But lo forth comes his self happily in deed. Such news will please him well, this is as it should be. As fast as wind and sail can carry it a main. But what two men are yond coming hitherwarde? Let us Harken them, somewhat there is I fear it. Let us Harken them, somewhat there is I fears it. I must ere I drink by your leave, go in all hast, To a place or two, with earnest letters of his. To report that I heard and saw, to me is ruth, But both my duty and name and property, Warneth me to you to show fidelity. It may be well enough, and I wish it so to be, She may his self discharge and try his honesty, Yet their claim to his me thought was very large, For with letters rings and tokens, they did his charge. Which when I heard and saw I would none to you bring. Sir, though I to you be a servants nt true and ust. Yet do not you therefore your faithful spouse mistrust. But examine the matter, and if you shall it find, To be all well, be not you for my words unkind And I do much rejoice the matter was no worse, And Like as to open it, I was to you faithful, So of dame Constance honest truth I am joyful. For God for end that I should hurt his by false report. And mistress I beseech you, take with me no grief, I did a true men partly, not wishing your r pr fe. I go. I will speak to his: Dame the lord you save and see. No tokens this time gramercy, God be with you. If he have perfect health, I am as I would be. And he as long for you. What is their business? His heart is here en now His body comes after. wife? this gear goes acr k. I than ̄ k you. If you be honest my words can hurt you nothing. But what I heard and saw, I might not but report.
