Amphitrion him hath supplanted

With sleyhte of love and hire enchaunted:

And thus put every man out other,

The Schip of love hath lost his Rother,

So that he can no reson stiere.

And forto speke of this matiere

Touchende love and his Supplant,[755]

A tale which is acordant

Unto thin Ere I thenke enforme.

Now herkne, for this is the forme. 2500
