Thou were full well ywarnéd by thy dreams

That thilké day was perilous to thee:

But what that God forewot must needés be,

After the opinion of certain clerkés,

Witness on him that any perfect clerk is,

That in schoolé is great altercation

In this matteré, and great disputision,

And hath been of a hundred thousand men:

But I ne cannot boult it to the bren,

As can the holy Doctor Augustin,
