On þe pore men þinkiþ he nought
Ne on þt lord þt him der bought.
Many a mes be forn him stondiþ
And of ilkon sum þing he fondiþ,
Of venyson, of gos and gryse,
Tarte, blawmanger, and of ryse,
Of euerilkon sumwhat he tastiþ
And so forsoþe his kynde be wastiþ,
For ser deyntes & many mes
Make men falle in many sicknes.
