With here in tresse, browdered full well,

Right smothly kept, and shyning every-del.

About her nek a flour of fressh devyse

With rubies set, that lusty were to sene;

815

And she in gown was, light and somer-wyse,

Shapen full wele, the colour was of grene,

With aureat seint about her sydes clene,

With dyvers stones, precious and riche:—

Thus was she rayed, yet saugh I never her liche.
