Wher thei go walkende on the Stronde,

A blind man, which cam there lad,

Unto this wif criende he bad, 760

With bothe hise hondes up and preide

To hire, and in this wise he seide:

‘O Hermyngeld, which Cristes feith,

Enformed as Constance seith,

Received hast, yif me my sihte.’

Upon his word hire herte afflihte

Thenkende what was best to done,
