Sey thus graunt mercy of thyn haboundaunce
That thow hast lent or this why wolt þou stryue
What woost thow yit how y the wol auaunce
And ek thow hast thy beste frende a-lyue [32]
¶ I haue the tawht deuisyoun by-twene
Frend of effect+ and frende of cowntenaunce
The nedeth nat the galle of no hyene
Þat cureth eyen derkyd for penaunce [36]
Now se[st] thow cleer þat weere in ignoraunce
Yit halt thin ancre and yit thow mayst aryue
