That it is goddes wille he cesse;

Bot in what wise he may relesse

His hihe astat, that wot he noght.

And thus withinne himself bethoght,

He bar it stille in his memoire,

Til he cam to the Consistoire;

And there in presence of hem alle

He axeth, if it so befalle 2910

That eny Pope cesse wolde,

How that the lawe it soffre scholde.
