But for so moche as he blind is,

Fulofte time he goth amis 350

And takth the badde for the goode,

Which hindreth many a mannes fode

Withoute cause, and forthreth eke.

So be ther some of love seke,[732]

Whiche oghte of reson to ben hole,

And some comen to the dole

In happ and as hemselve leste[733]

Drinke undeserved of the beste.[734]
