And, yf I can not get god to do some good,

I wolde hyer the devyll to runne thorow the wood,

The rootes to turne up, the toppys to brynge under.

A mischyefe upon them, and a wylde thunder! 430

Mery-reporte. Very well sayd, I set by your charyte

As mych, in a maner, as by your honeste.

I shall set you somwhat in ease anone.

Ye shall putte on your cappe, when I am gone.

For, I se, ye care not who wyn or lese, 435

So ye maye fynde meanys to wyn your fees.
