¶ yit mayster wolde I wete whi that men sayn
That the haare fumays and croteys booth playn
And aƚƚ other maner beestys that huntid be

That shaƚƚ I weeƚƚ teƚƚ the quod the mayster then
For why that he femays and crotis weeƚƚ I ken
He femaith for he beryth talow. this is no lees
And he croteis men sayn for he beerith grees
And Roukis on his houghis when he lettis it go
And beestys of sich kynde fynde wee no moo
How mony beestis femayen̄ mayster fayn̄ I wolde lere
And how many fenon̄ that ware goode to here
Aƚƚ this to teƚƚ quod the mayster I holde hit bot lihgt
Aƚƚ beestis that beere talow and stonde vpright
Femayen when thay do so say as I the kenne
And aƚƚ oder fenon̄ that rowken downe thenne.
