In good rule and in gouernaunce But euyll she spendeth her seruyse For noman woll her loue neyther preyse She is hated this wote I wele Her acquayntaunce wolde no man fele Ne han of elde company Men hate to be of her alye For no man wolde become olde Ne dye whan he is yonge and bolde And elde maruayleth ryght greatly whan they remembre hem inwardly Of many a peryllous empryse which that they

wost thou not where youth abyt That men so preysen in her wyt with delyte she halte soiour For both they dwellen in o tour As longe as youth is in season They dwell in one mansyon Delyte of youth woll haue seruyce To do what so he woll deuyse And youth is redy euermore For to obeye for smerte of sore Vnto delyte and hym to yeue Her seruyce whyle that she maye lyue WHere elde habytte I wol the tell

they her present And tellen her erlyche and late That deth standeth armed at her gate Than brynge they to her remembraunce The folly dedes of her enfaunce which causen her to mourne in wo That youth hath her begyled so which sodaynly away is hasted She wepeth the tyme that she hath wasted Complaynyng of the preterytte And the present that nat abytte And of her olde vanitie That but aforne her she maye se In the future some socour To leggen her of her dolour To graunt her tyme of repentaunce For her synnes to do penaunce And at the last so her gouerne To wynne the ioye that is eterne Fro which go bakwarde youth he made In vanitie to drowne and wade For present tyme abydeth nought It is more swyft than any thought So lytle whyle it doth endure That there nys compt ne measure But how that euer the game go who lyst to loue ioy and myrth also Of loue be it he or she Hye or lowe who it be In frute they shulde hem delyte Her parte they may not els quyte To saue hem selfe in honestie And yet full many one I se Of women sothly for to sayne That desyre and wolde fayne The playe of loue they be so wylde And not coueyte to go with chylde And yf with chylde they be perchaunce They wol it holde a great mischaunce But what so euer wo they fele They woll not playne but concele But yf it be any foole or nyce In whome that shame hath no iustyce For to delyte echone they drawe That haunt this worke both hye and lawe Saue suche that arne worth right nought That for moneye woll be bought Suche loue I prayse in no wyse whan it is gyuen for couetyse I preyse no woman though so be woode That yeueth her selfe for any good For lytle shulde a man tell Of her that wyl her body sell Be she mayde be she wyfe That quycke wyll sell her by her lyfe How fayre chere that euer she make He is a

the name of drury Non shulde her please but he were woode That woll dispoyle hym of his good Yet nathelesse I woll not saye That she for solace and for playe Maye a iewell or other thyng Take of her louers free yeuyng But that she aske it in no wyse For drede of shame or couetyse And she of hers may hym certayne without slaunder yeuen agayne And ioyne her hertes togyther so In loue and take and yeue also Trowe not that I woll hem twynne whan in her loue there is no synne I woll that they togyther go And don all that they han ado As curteys shulde and debonayre And in her loue beren hem fayre without vyce both he and she So that alwaye in honestie Fro folly loue to kepe hem clere That brenneth hertes with his fere And that her loue in any wyse Be deuoyde of couetyse Good loue shulde engendred be Of true hert iust and secree And not of suche as set her thought To haue her lust or els nought So are they caught in loues lace Truly for bodily solace Fleshly delyte is so present with the that set all thyne entent without more what shuld I glose For to get and haue the rose which maketh the so mate and wood That thou desyrest none other good But thou art not an yuche the nerere But

whan thou let in wherfore I rede thou shet hym out Or he shall greue the out of dout For to thy profyt it wyll turne Yf he nomore with the soiourne In great myschefe and sorowe sonken Ben hertes that of loue arne dronken As thou peraduenture knowen shall whan thou hast lost the tyme all And spent by thought in ydlenesse In waste and wofull lustynesse Yf thou mayst lyue the tyme to se Of loue for to delyuered be Thy tyme thou shalt bewepe sore The which neuer thou mayest restore For tyme lost as men may se For nothyng may recouered be And yf thou scape yet at last Fro loue that hath the so fast Knytte and bounden in his lace Certayne I holde it but a grace For many one as it is seyne Haue lost and spent also in veyne In his seruyce without socour Body and soule good and treasour wytte and strength and eke rychesse Of which they had neuer redresse ¶ Lamant THus taught and preached hath Reason But loue spylte her sermon That was so imped in my thought That her doctryne I set at nought And yet ne sayd she neuer a dele That I ne vnderstode it wele worde by worde the mater all But vnto loue I was so thral which calleth ouer all his praye He chaseth so my thought aye And holdeth myne hert vnder his seale As trusty and true as any stele So that no deuocion Ne had I in the sermon Of dame Reason ne of her rede
a wycked iape Nowe may I say I is but an ape Yet hath my felowe somwhat for his harme He hath the myllers doughter in hys arme He auntreth hym and hath hys nede yspedde And I lye as a draffe sacke in

the cradel and in his arme it hent And bare it softely to his beddes fete Sone after the wyfe her routyng lete And gan awake and went her out to pysse And came agayn gan the cradell mysse And groped here there but she foūde none Alas ꝙ she I had almoste mysgone I had almost gone to the clerkes bedde Eye benedycite than had I foule yspedde And forthe she gothe tyl she the cradel fonde She gropeth alway further with her honde And founde y e bedde thought nat but good Bycause that the cradel by it stode And nyste where she was for it was derke But fayre wel she crepte in by the clerke And lyeth ful stil wold haue caught a slepe within a while this Iohn the clerke vp lepe And on this good wyfe he layde ful sore So mery a fyt had she nought ful yore And pricked harde depe as he were madde This ioly lyfe haue these two clerkes ladde Tyl that the thyrde cocke began to syng ¶ Aleyn waxe wery in the dawnyng For he had swonken al the longe nyght And sayd farwel Malyn swete wyght The day is comen

heed is totty of my swynke to nyght That maketh me that I go not aryght I wot wel that by y e cradel I haue mysse go Here lyeth the Myller and hys wyfe also And forthe he gothe on twenty dyuel way Vnto the bedde there as the myller lay He wende haue cropen by his felowe Iohn And by the Myller he crepte in anon And caught hym by the necke soft he spake And sayd Iohan thou swynesheed awake For Christes soule and here a noble game For by that lorde that called is saynt Iame As I haue thrise in this shorte nyght Swyued the myllers doughter bolt vpright whyles thou haste as a cowarde ben agaste Ye false harlot quod the myller haste A false traytour false clerke quod he Thou shalte be deed by goddes dignyte who durste be so bolde to disparage My doughter that is come of suche lynage And by the throte bolle he caught Alayn And he him hent dispytously agayne And on the nose he smote him with his fest Downe ran the blode streme vpon his brest And in the flore wyth mouthe nose ybroke They walowen as dothe pygges in a poke And vp they gon and downe ayen anone Tyl that the myller spurnde on a stone And downe he fyl backwarde vpon his wyfe That wyste nothyng of this nyce stryfe For she was fal a slepe a lytel wyght with Iohn the clerke y t waked had alnyght And with the fal out of her slepe she brayde Helpe holy crosse of Bromholme she sayde In manus tuas lorde to the I cal Awake Symonde the fende is on me fal My herte is broken helpe I am but deed There lieth one on my wombe on my heed Helpe Symkyn for these false clerkes fyght This iohn stert vp as fast as euer he might And graspeth by the walles to and fro To fynde a staffe and she stert vp also And knewe the e●tres bet thā dyd this Iohn And by the wal she founde a staffe anon And sawe a lytel shemeryng of a
