The foureteenth of October the sunne enters into Scorpio. Scorpio. October

Illustrious Phaebus now declines amaine,
His golden head within the Scorpion dwels,
Now boystrous blasts of winde, and showres of raine
Of raging winters nigh approch foretells
From trees sharpe Autumne, all the leaes expells
For Phaebus now hath left his pleasant Innes,
Now Marchants Bacchus blood, both buye and sells
And Michalls Tearme, lawes haruest now beginnes
Where many losers are, and few that winnes:
For law may well be cal'd contentions whip,
When for a scratch, a cuffe, for points or pins:
Will witlesse gets his neighbour on the hippe.
Then tone the tother vnto law will vrge,
And vp they come to giue their purse a purge.
