He is noght wys who that ne troweth,

For it hath proeved ofte er this;

And thus the comun clamour is

In every lond wher poeple dwelleth,

And eche in his compleignte telleth

How that the world is al miswent,

And ther upon his jugement[139]

Yifth every man in sondry wise.

Bot what man wolde himself avise, 520

His conscience and noght misuse,
