Thus in and out / I dyde the chayne ofte moue
Yet coude I not come / vnto myne aboue
Tyll at the last / I dyde the crafte espy
Vndoynge the pynnes / & chayne full meruaylously
Full gladde was I than / whan I had this floure
I kyst it oft / I behelde the coloure grene
It swaged ryght well / myn inwarde doloure
Myn eyes conforted / with the bryghtnes I wene
This ryall floure / this emeraude to shene
Whan I had goten it by my prudence
