The country-mans lamentation for the death of his cow.

A Country Swain of little wit one day,
Did kill his Cow because she went astray:
Whats that to I or you, she was his own,
But now the Ass for his Cow doth Moan:
Most piteously methinks he cries in Vain,
For now his Cow's from hunger free, and pain;
What ails the fool to make so great a stir,
She cannot come to him, he may to her.
