Poet Analysis

First Line: THE JEWES THEIR BEDS, AND OFFICES OF EASE
Last Line: GODS WAYES AND WALKS, WHICH LIE STILL EAST AND WEST.
Subject(s): JEWS; JUDAISM;

The Jewes their beds, and offices of ease,
Plac't North and South, for these cleane purposes;
That mans uncomely froth might not molest
Gods wayes and walks, which lie still East and West.
