Yet, pardee, god shal helpe us at the laste;

And dredelees, if that my lyf may laste,

And god to-forn, lo, som of hem shal smerte;

1050

And yet [me athinketh] that this avaunt me asterte!

151. [Now], Pandare, I can no more seye,

But [thou wys], thou wost, thou mayst, thou art al!

My lyf, my deeth, hool in thyn honde I leye;

Help now,' quod he. 'Yis, by my trouthe, I shal.'
