either_o she_o that_o be_v of_o noble_a blood_n and_o of_o able_a kinsfolk_n and_o copious_a of_o have_v much_o more_o than_o the_o young_a man_n or_o the_o other_o that_o be_v nether_a noble_a nor_o

woman_n ought_v to_o follow_v love_n as_o you_o have_v before_o affirm_v we_o give_v judgement_n that_o in_o how_o much_o the_o woman_n be_v rich_a great_a and_o more_o noble_a than_o the_o young_a man_n of_o whatsoever_o degree_n or_o dignity_n he_o be_v of_o even_o so_o she_o ought_v to_o be_v rather_o prefer_v to_o the_o love_n of_o a_o young_a man_n than_o ought_v she_o that_o have_v any_o

further_o there_o be_v a_o common_a proverb_n which_o say_v the_o good_a to_o covet_v better_a it_o be_v than_o to_o possess_v that_o bad_a be_v wherefore_o in_o our_o judgement_n thou_o be_v better_a to_o love_v the_o most_o noble_a and_o with_o good_a reason_n to_o refuse_v the_o less_o noble_a then_o say_v pleasant_a pola_n noble_a queen_n reason_n i_o will_v have_v give_v a_o other_o judgement_n if_o it_o have_v be_v to_o i_o of_o this_o question_n as_o you_o shall_v hear_v we_o all_o natural_o do_v rather_o desire_v short_a and_o brief_a than_o long_o and_o tedious_a trouble_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o less_o &_o more_o brief_a trouble_n to_o get_v the_o love_n of_o the_o less_o noble_a than_o of_o the_o more_o noble_a be_v manifest_a then_o the_o less_o ought_v to_o be_v follow_v for_o as_o muchè_fw-fr as_o the_o love_n of_o the_o less_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v already_o win_v the_o which_o of_o the_o more_o be_v yet_o to_o get_v further_o many_o peril_n may_v follow_v to_o a_o man_n love_v a_o woman_n of_o a_o great_a condition_n than_o himself_o be_v of_o neither_o have_v he_o last_o thereby_o any_o great_a delight_n than_o of_o the_o lesser_a for_o we_o see_v a_o great_a woman_n to_o have_v many_o kinsfolk_n &_o a_o great_a family_n and_o they_o all_o as_o diligent_a héeder_n of_o her_o honour_n to_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o she_o so_o that_o if_o any_o one_o of_o they_o happen_v to_o espy_v this_o love_n thereof_o may_v follow_v as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v great_a peril_n to_o the_o lover_n the_o which_o of_o the_o less_o noble_a can_v not_o so_o light_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o these_o peril_n each_o one_o as_o he_o be_v able_a ought_v to_o flee_v for_o as_o much_o as_o who_o you_o receive_v harm_n be_v sure_a thereof_o and_o who_o that_o have_v do_v it_o laugh_v he_o after_o to_o scorn_v say_v he_o speed_v well_o where_o he_o like_v there_o let_v he_o love_v yet_o die_v he_o more_o than_o once_o but_o how_o that_o once_o happen_v where_o and_o for_o what_o occasion_n beside_o each_o one_o ought_v to_o take_v good_a heed_n it_o be_v very_o credible_a that_o a_o gentlewoman_n will_v light_o esteem_v of_o he_o for_o that_o she_o will_v desire_v to_o love_v one_o more_o noble_a or_o great_a than_o herself_o and_o not_o one_o inferior_a to_o herself_o whereby_o soldome_n or_o never_o he_o shall_v attain_v his_o desire_n but_o of_o the_o lesser_a shall_v happen_v the_o contrary_a because_o that_o she_o will_v glory_v to_o be_v love_v of_o such_o a_o lover_n and_o will_v endeavour_n herself_o to_o please_v he_o to_o the_o end_n to_o nourish_v love_n and_o yet_o if_o this_o be_v not_o the_o power_n of_o the_o lover_n only_o may_v be_v able_a without_o fear_n to_o bring_v to_o pass_v to_o fulfil_v his_o desire_n wherefore_o i_o gather_v that_o the_o less_o noble_a ought_v to_o be_v prefer_v in_o love_n before_o the_o more_o noble_a your_o judgement_n deceive_v you_o say_v the_o queen_n to_o the_o fair_a gentlewoman_n question_n because_o love_n be_v of_o this_o nature_n that_o how_o much_o the_o more_o one_o love_v so_o much_o the_o more_o he_o desire_v to_o love_v and_o this_o may_v be_v see_v by_o they_o that_o through_o love_n feel_v the_o great_a grief_n the_o which_o although_o it_o trouble_v they_o not_o a_o little_a yet_o love_v they_o continual_o the_o more_o neither_o do_v any_o one_o from_o his_o heart_n although_o he_o make_v great_a appearance_n in_o word_n desire_v thereof_o a_o speedy_a end_n then_o as_o small_a trouble_n be_v seek_v for_o of_o the_o slothful_a of_o the_o wise_a thing_n that_o be_v attain_v with_o most_o trouble_v be_v hold_v most_o dear_a and_o delightful_a and_o therefore_o in_o love_v the_o less_o woman_n to_o get_v she_o shall_v be_v as_o you_o say_v little_a trouble_n and_o the_o love_n both_o little_a and_o short_a &_o shall_v be_v follow_v as_o though_o one_o in_o love_v will_v desire_v to_o love_v less_o and_o less_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o love_n as_o we_o have_v say_v but_o in_o love_v the_o great_a that_o be_v get_v with_o trouble_n happen_v the_o contrary_a because_o that_o as_o in_o a_o thing_n dear_o get_v with_o travail_n be_v repose_v all_o diligence_n to_o the_o well_o héede_v of_o the_o gain_a love_n even_o so_o be_v she_o every_o hour_n the_o more_o love_a and_o the_o long_o do_v continue_v the_o delight_n and_o pleasure_n thereof_o and_o yet_o if_o you_o will_v say_v that_o all_o the_o doubt_n be_v of_o their_o kinsman_n we_o will_v not_o deny_v it_o for_o this_o be_v

the_o same_o in_o heart_n in_o say_v also_o that_o love_v a_o great_a woman_n than_o himself_o he_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o end_n of_o his_o desire_n because_o the_o woman_n
