To take my trybut (.) to me dywe, 256 claiming tribute from him.
But noon þere-for to paye,
By my werk ȝe schalle asay;
For þe Emperour Constantyne
Þat was þe Soone of Elyne, 260
Þat was a Bretone of þis lond,
Conquered Rome wyth hys hond,
And so ȝe oweþ me tribut:
Y charge ȝow þat ȝe pay me hyt. 264
