1521 in poetry

Her lothly lere [unwanted complexion]

Is nothing clear,

But ugly of cheer,

Droopy and drowsy,

Scurvy and lousy;

Her face all bowsy [bloated by drink]

Comely crinkled,

Wondersly wrinkled,

Like a roast pig's ear,

Bristled with hear. [hair]

-- Lines 12-21, "The Tunnyng of Elynour Rummyng" by John Skelton. The poem is thought to have been first published this year.
