A frende from fo, and good from iniquyte:

Ryght from wronge ye shall know in certainte.

My scyence is all the yll to eschewe,

And for to knowe the false from the trewe.

Who wyll take payne to folowe the trace,

In this wrecched world, of trouth and ryghtwysenes,

In heven above he shal have dwellynge place.

And who that walketh the waye of derkenes,

Spendyng his tyme in worldly wretchednes,

Amyddes the erth, in hel most horrible,
