Of one that lent money on sure band

WHen Lynus little store of coyne is spent,
And no supply of office or of Rent,
He comes to Titus knowne a wary spender,
A pleasant wit, but no great money-lender,
And prest him very hard for twenty pound,
For which small kindnesse he were greatly bound,
And lest (quoth he) you deeme it might presumption,
If I should offer you my bare assumption,
I sweare All-hallows, I wil make repayment,
Yea though I pawne mine Armour and my Rayment,
And for your more assurance, you shall haue
What Obligation you your selfe will craue,
Or Bill or Bond your payment to performe,
Recognizance, Statute or any forme.
Now Titus by report so well did know him,
That he might scant trust him so far as throw him,
And said he should haue so much at his hands,
Forthwith if he might poynt the forme and bands.
Agree'd, quoth Lynus straight, and doth him thanke.
But Titus brings a Foorme of foure Inch-Plancke,
Two of the Gard might scantly well it lift,
And ere that Lynus well perceiu'd the drift,
ast to that Foorme he bindes him hands and feete:
Then brought the mony forth and let him see't,
And sware till, he his fashions did reforme,
None other bands could serue nor other forme.
