1Again, in the time of K. Edward, a young gentleman of Cornwall being in company with other moe gentlemen together with their servants, being about the number of twenty horsemen, among whom this lusty younger entered into talk, and began withal to swear, and use ribald speech, being gently reproved, the young gentleman took snuff, and said to the reprover, Why takest thou thought for me? take thought for thy winding sheet: well, quoth the other, amend, for death giveth no warning: for as soon cometh a lambs skin to the market, as on old sheep's skin.
