That foules maden at hir flight a-way,
695
I wook, and other bokes took me to
To rede upon, and yet I rede alway;
I hope, y-wis, to rede so som day
That I shal mete som thing for to fare
699
The bet; and thus to rede I nil not spare.
Explicit tractatus de congregacione Volucrum
die sancti Valentini.
