From Calys to Dovyr, to Caunterbury in Kente, 340
To make reconyng in the resseyte how Robyn loste hys bowe,
To sowe corne in the see sande, ther wyll no crope growe.
Thow ye be tauntyd, Parotte, with tonges attayntyd,
Yet your problemes ar preignaunte, and with loyalte acquayntyd.
Monostichon.
I, properans, Parrot[e],[102] malas sic corripe linguas.
Morda puros mall desires. Portigues.
15 kalendis Decembris, 34.
Distichon miserabile.
