And yaf his pees, which is the foundement
180
Of charitè, withouten whos assent
The worldes pees may never wel be tryed,
Ne lovë kept, ne lawë justifyed.
The Jewes with the payens hadden werre,
But they among hem-self stode ever in pees;
185
Why shulde than our pees stonde out of herre,
Which Crist hath chose unto his owne encrees?
