[Fol. 207b, col. 2.]
For þu ful wel bi-hetet me,
Þanne i last[e] spak with þe.”
Godard bids him go home, and remain a thrall;
Godard stod, and lokede on him
Þoruth-like, with eyne grim;
And seyde, “Wiltu [nou] ben erl?
Go hom swiþe, fule drit, cherl;
Go heþen, and be euere-more
Þral and cherl, als þou er wore.
