For goddes love, so beth me not unkinde.'
237. To this answerde Troilus and seyde,
'Now god, to whom ther nis no cause y-wrye,

Me glade, as wis I never un-to Criseyde,
Sin thilke day I saw hir first with yë,
Was fals, ne never shal til that I dye.
At shorte wordes, wel ye may me leve;
I can no more, it shal be founde at preve.'
