Pes was the ferste thing he let do crie
Ayein the worldes rancour and envie.[1939]
And er Crist wente out of this erthe hiere,
And stigh to hevene, he made his testament,[1940]
Wher he beqwath to his disciples there
And yaf his pes, which is the foundement
Of charite, withouten whos assent 180
The worldes pes mai nevere wel be tried,[1941]
Ne love kept, ne lawe justefied.
The Jewes with the paiens hadden werre,[1942]
