Homward aȝen now returne ȝe,

And in this temple abyde we xalle,

To servyn God in Trinyté.

Joachym. A! mercyfful Lord, what is this lyff?

What have I do, Lorde, to have this blame?

ffor hevynes I dare not go hom to my wyff,

And amonge my neybores I dare not abyde ffor shame.

A Anne! Anne! Anne! al oure joye is turnyd to grame,

ffrom ȝour blyssyd ffelacheppe I am now exilyd,

And ȝe here onys of this ffowle fame,
