The thyrde rule

Consydre well that foly it is and vayne

To loke for heuen with pleasure and delyght

Sith chryst our lorde and souereyne captayne

Ascended neuer but by manly fyght

And bytter passion / then were it no ryght

That ony seruaunt / ye wyll your selfe recorde

Sholde stonde in better condicyon then his lorde
