Wiche thre thẏnges cause the houndes to endure

¶ Yit wolde I weete mayster iff it ware thy wiƚƚ

Whan thyn houndes renne an hert vntiƚƚ

And ay the forther they goo the gladder thay bene

For .iij. causes quod he oft tyme is sene

Oon is when the hert rennys fast on a rese

He swetith that hit rennyth downe thorogh owt his clees

The houndes when thay fynde of that it is swete

Then ar thay leuer to renne and lother to lete

An oder cause when the hert ny no moore may

Then wiƚƚ he white froth caste ther he gooth a way

When thyn houndes fynde of that then ar thay glad

In hope thay shaƚƚ hym haue and renne so rad

The .iij. cause is of the hert when he is nygh dede

Then he castys owt of his mowth froth and blade rede

The houndes knaw that he shaƚƚ be take soone than

And euer the forther they goo the gladdir they renne

Thes are the causes .iij. that cawses hem gladde to be
