Bast.

Madam and if my brother had my shape

And I had his, sir Roberts his like him,

And if my legs were two such riding rods,

My armes, such eele‑skins stuft, my face so thin,

That in mine eare I durst not sticke a rose,

Lest men should say, looke where three farthings goes,

And to his shape were heyre to all this land,

Would I might neuer stirre from off this place,

I would giue it euery foot to haue this face:

It would not be sir nobbe in any case.
