And bad he schuld be glad;

And yet, for all hys grete honour,

Cokwold was Kyng Arthour,

Ne galle non he had.

So at the last, the duke he brayd,

And to the kyng thes wordes [sayd];

He myght no longer forbere;

"Syr, what hath thes men don,

That syche garlondes thei were vpon?

That skyll wold I lere."
