Shal causeles so sterven in his trouthe!

212. And over al this, your fader shal despyse

Us alle, and seyn this citee nis but lorn;

1480

And that thassege never shal aryse,

For-why the Grekes han it alle sworn

Til we be slayn, and doun our walles torn.

And thus he shal you with his wordes [fere],

That ay drede I, that ye wol bleve there.
