Hys prese, Hys prys, and Hys parage

Is rote and grounde of alle my blysse.' 60

'Blysful,' quod I, 'may þys be trwe?—

Dyspleseȝ not if I speke errour—

Art þou þe quene of heueneȝ blwe,

Þat al þys worlde schal do honour?

We leuen on Marye þat grace of grewe, 65

Þat ber a barne of vyrgynflour;

Þe croune fro hyr quo moȝt remwe

Bot ho hir passed in sum fauour?
