Whan he had eaten what he eat wold;

So passing sweetly, that by manifold

It was more pleasaunt than I coud devise,

And whan his song was ended in this wise,

The nightingale with so merry a note,

Answered him, that all the wood rong

So sodainly, that as it were a sote,

I stood astonied, so was I with the song

Thorow ravished, that till late and long,

I ne wist in what place I was, ne where;
