Yes, these rhymes are exact and masculine, but what else do we have here?

   But to make up my tale,
She breweth noppy ale,
And maketh therof port sale
To travellars, to tynkers,
 To sweters, to swynkers,
 And all good ale drynkers,
 That wyll nothynge spare,
 But drynke tyll they stare
 And brynge themselfe bare,
 With, "Now away the mare,
 And let us sley care,
 As wyse as an hare!"
