For covetyse I wyl with hem wake,
And onto my maystyr I xal hem bryng.
Heyl prynsesse and prestys that ben present,
New tydynges to ȝow I come to telle,
ȝyf ȝe wole folwe myn intent,
My mayster, Jhesu, I wole ȝow selle,
Hese intent and purpose for to felle;
ffor I wole no lenger folwyn his lawe;—
Late sen what mony that I xal telle,
And late Jhesu my maystyr ben hangyn and drawe.
