Quen and leuedi ouer me?
Þou shalt hauen a gadeling,
Ne shalt þou hauen non oþer king;
He says she shall marry his cook’s servant.
Þe shal spusen mi cokes knaue,
Ne shalt þou non oþer louerd haue.
Daþeit þat þe oþer yeue
Euere more hwil i liue!
To-mo[r]we ye sholen ben weddeth,
And, maugre þin, to-gidere beddeth.”
