Synnyst dedly, thou xalt not therfore dyspeyre;

But therfore do penawns and confesse the clene,

And of hevyn thou mayst trost to ben eyre.

The pathe that lyth to this blyssyd enherytawns,

Is hope and drede copelyd be conjunccyon;

Betwyx these tweyn may be no dysseverawns,

ffor hope withowtyn drede is maner of presumpcion.

And drede withowtyn hope is maner of dysperacion,

So these tweyn must be knyt be on acorde.

How ȝe xal aray the wey, I have made declaracion,
