Poem by John Heywood

A Reward to a Service Man

“Wait well; thy master will do for thee I wis:
Canst thou spy nothing to ask of him?” “Yis:
But when I ask I cannot have that I crave.”
“No? ask him blessing, and that shalt thou surely have.”

2. Of a Hand-gun and a Hand
3. Of Treading a Shoe Awry
4. What God Said to One. Otherwise. Thou art one of them to whom God bade Ho!
5. Of Red Roses
