She toke me by the hand and led me a daunce,

And with her sugred lyppes on me she smyled; 30

But, what for her dissembled countenaunce,

I coud not beware tyl I was begyled:

Now from this world she hath me excyled,

When I was lothyst hens for to go,

And I am in age but, as who sayth, a chylde,

Et, ecce, nunc in pulvere dormio!

I se wyll,[166] they leve that doble my ȝeris:

This[167] dealid this world with me as it lyst,[168]
