'Late God yworth with al, for so His worde techeth;

For now I am olde and hore, and haue of myn owen,

To penaunce and to pilgrimage I wil passe with þise other.

Forþi I wil, or I wende, do wryte my biqueste.

In Dei nomine, amen, I make it myseluen. 80

He shal haue my soule þat best hath yserued it,

And fro þe fende it defende, for so I bileue,

Til I come to His acountes, as my Credo me telleth,

To haue a relees and a remissioun on þat rental I leue.
