And forth is lad this woful yonge knight

Unto the court of king Minos ful right,

1950

And in a prison, fetered, cast is he

Til thilke tyme he sholde y-freten be.

Wel maystow wepe, O woful Theseus,

That art a kinges sone, and dampned thus.

Me thinketh this, [that thou were depe y-holde]

1955

To whom that saved thee fro cares colde!
