But yf reason be regent and ruler of your barge.

Lyb. To that ye say I can well condyssende:

Shewe forth, I pray you, here in what you intende. 40

Fel. Of that I intende to make demonstracyon,

It askyth lesure with good aduertysment.

That lyberte be lynkyd with the chayne of countenaunce,

Lyberte to let from all maner offence;

For lyberte at large is lothe to be stoppyd,

But with countenaunce your corage must be croppyd.
