He wondeth for no cursednesse,

That he ne brekth the holinesse 6990

And doth to god no reverence;

For he hath lost his conscience,

That though the Prest therfore curse,

He seith he fareth noght the wurse.[593]

And forto speke it otherwise,

What man that lasseth the franchise(7050*)

And takth of holi cherche his preie,

I not what bedes he schal preie.
