Desyre not thi neybores wyff,
Thow she be fayr and whyte as swan,
And thi wyff brown; ȝitt natt for-than
Thi neybores wyff thou nevyr rejoyse,
Kepe the clene, as evyr thou can,
To thin owyn wyff, and thin owyn choyse.
Decimum mandatum. “Non concupisces domum proximi tui, non servum, non ancillam, non bos, non asinum, nec omnia quæ illius sunt, etc.”
The x.ᵈᵉ comaundement of God and last is this,
Thi neybores hous desyre thou nowth,
Maydon, nor servaunt, nor nowth of his,
