At your pleasure ye may me save or kyll;

Bicause I love you, wyl you me spyl?

Alas! it were a pyteous case in dede,

That you wyth deth should rewarde my mede.

A, a! that I am ryght wo bygone,

For I of love dare not to you speke,

For feare of nay, that may encrease my mone;

A nay of you myght cause my herte to breke.

Alas! I wretche and yet unhappy peke

Into suche trouble, misery, and thought:
