Graund Juir, of this Frenshe prouerbe olde, 1440

How men were wonte for to discerne

By candelmes day what wedder shuld holde;

But Marione clarione was caught with a colde colde,[1843]

(anglice a cokwolde,)[1844]

And all ouercast with cloudis vnkynde,

This goodly flowre with stormis was vntwynde;

Velut rosa vel lilium, O pulcherrima mulierum, &c.: Cantatecclesia.

This ieloffer ientyll, this rose, this lylly flowre,

This primerose pereles, this propre vyolet,
