Thus he, which love hadde in desdeign,

[Presumption of Lovers.]

Worste of all othre was besein, 2360

And as he sette his pris most hyhe,

He was lest worth in loves yhe

And most bejaped in his wit:

Wherof the remembrance is yit,

So that thou myht ensample take,

And ek alle othre for his sake.

Amans.
