Poem by John Heywood

Of Least and Most Mastery

“What is the least mastery thou canst devise?”
“Least mastery is a fool to ween himself wise.”
“What is the most mastery that thy wit spies?” 
“The most mastery is, to make a fool wise.”

1. Of Holding an Inn
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. A Reward to a Service Man
