“Thai may tak in, and kep it at thair awn will.1170

“Apon yon inche rycht mony men may be,

“And syn wsche out, thair tym quhen at thai se.

“To bid lang her we may nocht wpon chans,

“Yon folk has fud, trast weill, at sufficians.

“Wattir fra thaim forsuth can nocht be set;1175

“Sum wthyr wyill ws worthis for to get.

“Yhe sall remayn her at this port all still,

“And I my selff the boit sall bryng yow till.”
