Loue hem and lene hem, so lawe of God techeth:— 215
Alter alterius onera portate.
And alle maner of men þat þow myȝte asspye
That nedy ben and nauȝty, helpe hem with þi godis;
Loue hem, and lakke hem nouȝte; late God take þe veniaunce;
Theigh þei done yuel, late þow God aworthe:— 220
Michi vindictam, et ego retribuam.
And if þow wil be graciouse to God, do as þe Gospel techeth,
And bilow þe amonges low men; so shaltow lacche grace:—
Facite vobis amicos de mamona iniquitatis.'
