Þer wakned wele in þat wone, when wyst þe grete,

Þat gode G: watȝ commen, gayn hit hym þoȝt;

Þe kyng kysseȝ þe knyȝt, & þe whene alce,

& syþen mony syker knyȝt, þat soȝt hym to haylce,

Of his fare þat hym frayned, & ferlyly he telles;

Biknowoȝ alle þe costes of care þat he hade,—

Þe chaunce of þe chapel, þe chere of þe knyȝt,

Þe luf of þe ladi, þe lace at þe last.

Þe nirt in þe nek he naked hem schewed,

Þat he laȝt for his vnleute at þe leudes hondes,
