she_o and_o among_o the_o other_o word_n that_o i_o understand_v of_o their_o talk_n be_v that_o each_o one_o say_v that_o he_o be_v her_o best_a belove_a and_o for_o proof_n thereof_o either_o of_o they_o allege_v in_o the_o furtherance_n of_o himself_o diverse_a gesture_n then_o before_o do_v by_o the_o young_a woman_n and_o they_o thus_o remain_v in_o this_o contention_n a_o long_a time_n be_v now_o through_o many_o word_n at_o dagger_n draw_v they_o acknowledge_v that_o héerin_o they_o do_v very_o evil_a because_o in_o thus_o do_v they_o wrought_v hurt_v and_o shame_n to_o themselves_o and_o displeasure_n to_o the_o woman_n wherefore_o move_v of_o a_o equal_a agreement_n both_o two_o go_v to_o the_o mother_n of_o the_o maid_n who_o be_v also_o at_o the_o same_o feast_n and_o thus_o say_v unto_o she_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o above_o all_o other_o woman_n of_o the_o world_n either_o of_o they_o best_o like_v her_o daughter_n and_o that_o they_o be_v at_o contention_n whether_o of_o they_o be_v best_o like_v of_o she_o it_o will_v therefore_o please_v she_o to_o grant_n they_o this_o favour_n to_o the_o end_n no_o great_a inconvenience_n may_v spring_v thereof_o as_o to_o

be_v whether_o of_o they_o be_v best_o belove_v of_o thou_o and_o they_o seek_v of_o i_o this_o savour_n that_o thou_o either_o by_o sign_n or_o word_n resolve_v they_o herein_o be_v and_o therefore_o to_o the_o end_n that_o love_n from_o who_o all_o peace_n and_o goodness_n ought_v always_o to_o spring_v breed_n not_o now_o the_o contrary_a content_v they_o in_o this_o and_o with_o semblable_a

feast_n say_v that_o she_o have_v both_o perform_v the_o commandment_n of_o her_o mother_n and_o eke_o their_o desire_n the_o young_a man_n be_v thus_o leave_v return_v also_o to_o their_o former_a

take_v my_o garland_n to_o none_o other_o end_n but_o for_o that_o what_o mine_n be_v please_v she_o and_o to_o give_v occasion_n to_o be_v behold_v unto_o i_o but_o to_o thou_o she_o have_v give_v she_o as_o it_o be_v in_o place_n of_o her_o last_o farewell_n unwilling_a that_o like_o a_o country_n girl_n the_o love_n which_o thou_o bear_v she_o be_v without_o requital_n and_o therefore_o last_o she_o give_v thou_o that_o garland_n thou_o have_v merit_v the_o other_o reply_v with_o the_o contrary_a thus_o answer_v true_o she_o love_v that_o thou_o be_v better_o than_o thou_o and_o that_o may_v be_v see_v in_o take_v thereof_o and_o i_o she_o love_v better_a than_o what_o i_o be_v in_o as_o much_o as_o she_o have_v give_v i_o of_o she_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o token_n of_o her_o last_o deserve_a gift_n as_o thou_o affirm_v but_o rather_o a_o beginning_n of_o amity_n and_o love_n a_o gift_n make_v the_o receiver_n a_o subject_n to_o the_o giver_n and_o because_o she_o peradventure_o uncertane_v of_o i_o to_o the_o end_n she_o may_v be_v more_o certain_a to_o have_v i_o her_o subject_n will_v bind_v i_o if_o perhaps_o i_o be_v not_o bind_v unto_o she_o

they_o abide_v a_o long_a time_n contend_v and_o in_o the_o end_n depart_v without_o any_o definition_n at_o all_o now_o say_v i_o most_o puissant_a queen_n if_o you_o shall_v be_v demand_v of_o the_o last_o sentence_n of_o such_o a_o contention_n what_o will_v you_o judge_v the_o fair_a lady_n somewhat_o smile_v turn_v towards_o philocopo_n her_o eye_n sparkle_v with_o a_o amorous_a light_n and_o after_o a_o soft_a sigh_n thus_o make_v answer_v most_o noble_a youth_n question_n proper_a be_v your_o question_n and_o true_o as_o very_o wise_o the_o young_a woman_n behave_v herself_o so_o each_o one_o of_o the_o young_a man_n right_o well_o defend_v his_o cause_n but_o because_o you_o require_v what_o we_o last_o will_v judge_v thereof_o thus_o we_o make_v you_o answer_v it_o seem_v unto_o we_o and_o so_o it_o ought_v to_o seem_v to_o each_o one_o that_o take_v good_a heed_n that_o the_o woman_n have_v in_o hate_n neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o but_o to_o keep_v her_o intent_n covert_n do_v two_o contrary_a act_n as_o appear_v and_o not_o without_o occasion_n and_o to_o the_o end_n she_o may_v get_v more_o assure_v the_o love_n of_o he_o who_o she_o love_v as_o not_o to_o lose_v the_o love_n of_o the_o other_o who_o she_o hate_v not_o it_o be_v but_o wise_o do_v but_o to_o come_v to_o our_o question_n which_o be_v to_o whether_o of_o the_o two_o great_a love_n be_v show_v we_o say_v that_o she_o love_v he_o best_o and_o he_o chief_a in_o her_o favour_n to_o who_o she_o give_v her_o garland_n and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o reason_n whatsoever_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o love_v any_o person_n each_o one_o through_o force_n of_o the_o love_n they_o bear_v be_v so_o strong_o bind_v to_o the_o person_n love_v that_o abou●_n all_o other_o thing_n they_o desire_v to_o please_v the_o same_o neither_o to_o bind_v he_o or_o she_o more_o strong_o that_o thus_o love_v need_v either_o gift_n or_o service_n and_o this_o be_v manifest_a and_o yet_o we_o see_v that_o who_o so_o love_v though_o he_o endeavour_n himself_o sundry_a way_n be_v not_o able_a to_o make_v the_o person_n love_v in_o any_o sort_n benign_a and_o subject_a unto_o he_o whereby_o he_o may_v bring_v it_o to_o his_o pleasure_n and_o so_o with_o a_o more_o bold_a face_n demand_v his_o desire_n and_o that_o this_o be_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o say_v dido_n the_o inflame_a dido_n with_o her_o do_n do_v very_o well_o manifest_a the_o same_o unto_o we_o who_o burn_v in_o the_o love_n of_o aeneas_n so_o long_o aeneas_n as_o it_o seem_v she_o neither_o with_o honour_n nor_o with_o gift_n able_a to_o win_v he_o have_v not_o the_o courage_n to_o attempt_v the_o doubtful_a way_n of_o ask_v the_o question_n so_o that_o then_o the_o young_a woman_n seek_v to_o make_v he_o most_o behold_v unto_o she_o who_o she_o best_o love_v and_o thus_o we_o say_v that_o he_o that_o receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o garland_n be_v her_o best_a belove_a as_o the_o queen_n become_v silent_a philocopo_n answer_v discrete_a lady_n queen_n great_o be_v your_o answer_n to_o be_v commend_v but_o for_o all_o that_o you_o do_v bring_v i_o into_o a_o great_a admiration_n of_o that_o you_o have_v define_v touch_v the_o propound_a question_n because_o i_o will_v have_v judge_v rather_o the_o contrary_n for_o so_o much_o as_o general_o among_o lover_n this_o be_v the_o wont_a custom_n that_o be_v to_o desire_v to_o bear_v upon_o they_o some_o jewel_n or_o some_o other_o thing_n of_o the_o person_n love_v to_o the_o end_n that_o most_o time_n they_o may_v glory_v themselves_o more_o therein_o than_o in_o all_o the_o remnant_n they_o have_v &_o perceive_v the_o same_o about_o they_o therewith_o to_o glad_v their_o mind_n paris_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v paris_n seldom_o time_n or_o never_o enter_v into_o the_o bloody_a battle_n against_o the_o greek_n without_o bear_v some_o token_n upon_o he_o that_o have_v be_v give_v he_o by_o his_o helen_n helen_n beléeve_v better_a to_o prevail_v therewith_o than_o if_o he_o have_v go_v without_o the_o same_o and_o true_o in_o my_o opinion_n his_o thought_n be_v not_o vain_a

be_v keep_v the_o begin_v order_n and_o he_o who_o subject_n we_o be_v pardon_v we_o the_o word_n that_o we_o as_o con_z rain_v through_o force_n of_o judgement_n shall_v more_o soon_o than_o willing_a say_v against_o his_o divine_a majesty_n lest_o thereby_o his_o indignation_n do_v fall_v upon_o we_o and_o you_o that_o likewise_o as_o well_o as_o we_o be_v his_o subject_n with_o a_o
