Quod humo quesieris, humo totum dabis.

[fol. 63, ro.]

4 Erþ get hit[14] on erp maistri and miȝte;

Al we beþ erþ, to erþ we beþ idiȝte;

Erþ askeþ carayne of king and of kniȝt;

Whan erþ is in erþ, so lowȝ he be liȝt.

Whan þi riȝt and þi wowȝ wendiþ þe bi-for,

Be þou þre niȝt in a þrouȝ, þi frendschip is i-lor.
