The bargayne he may better[383] knowe;

Which makes[384] the marcket now so deare

That there be fewe that makes good cheare;

For the fermour must sell his goose,

As he may be able to paye for his house,

Or els, for non[385] payeng the rent,

Avoyde at our Lady daye in Lent:

Thus the poore man shalbe shent;

And then he and his wyffe,

With theire children, all theire lyffe,
