My kinsmen promiscd me faithfully For to abide with me steadfastly,

And now fast away do they flee:

Even so Fellowship promised me.

385 What friend wcre best me of to provide?

I lose my time here longer to abide.

Yet in my mind a thing there is:

Ali my life I have loved riches;

If that my Good now help me might,    Goods

390 He would make my heart fuli light.

I will speak to him in this distrcss—

Where art thou, my Goods and riches ?

[ Goods speaks front a corner\

Goods. Who calleth me? Everyman? What! hast thou hastę ?

I lie here in corners, trussed and piled so high,

395 And in chests I am locked so fast,

Also sacked in bags. Thou mayst see with thine eye I cannot stir; in packs Iow I lie.

What would ye have ? Lightly me say.    ąuickly

Iiveryrnan. Corne hithcr, Good, in all the hastę thou may,

ą 00    For of counsel I must desire thee.

Goods. Sir, and ye in the world have sorrow or advcrsity,

That can I help you to remedy shortly.

Bueryman. It is another disease that grieveth me; irouble In this world it is not, I tell thee so.

.403 I am sent for, another way to go,

To give a strait count generał Ilcfore the highest Jupiter of all;

And all my life I have liad joy and pleasure in thee, Therefore, I pray thee, go with me;

410 For, peradventure, thou mayst before God Almighty My reckoning help to clean and purify;

For it is said ever among

That inoucy maketli all right that is wrong.

38.3 To provide mysclf with.

.(on For I nmst cntrcnt your advice.

|i2 .For it is somctijn:s said.

Goods. Nay, Everyman, I sing another song.

I follow no man in such voyages ;

For, and I went with thee,

Thou shouldst farę much the worse for me;

For because on me thou did set thy mind,

Thy reckoning I have madę blotted and blind, obscure That thine account thou cannot make truły;

And that hast diou for the love of me.

Evcryman. That would grieve me fuli sore,

When I should come to that fearful answer.

Up, let us go thither together.

Goods. Nay, not so! I am too brittle, I may not endure;

I will follow no man one foot, be ye surę.

Everyman. Alas, I have thee loved, and had great pleasure

All my life-days on good and treasure.

Goods. That is to thy damnation, without leasing,

For my love is contrary to the love everlasting;

But if thou had me loved moderately during,

As to the poor to give part of me,

Then shouldst thou not in this dolour be,

Nor in this great sorrow and care.

Everyman. Lo, now was I deceived ere I was ware,

And all I may wite misspending of time.

Goods. What, weenest thou that I am thine ?

Everyman. I had wend so.

Goods. Nay, Everyman, I say no.

As for a while I was lent thee;

A season thou hast had me in prosperity.

My condition is man’s soul to kill;

If I save one, a thousand I do spili.    ruin

Weenest thou that I will follow thee ?

Nay, not from this world, verily.

Everyman. I had wend otherwise.

Goods. Therefore to thy soul Good is a thief; '

429 Without a lie, i.e. truły.

441-2 But if you had loved me moderately during your lifetime, so as to give part of me to the poor.

436 And I may blamc it all on the bad use I have madę of my time.
