He wolde habbe maked me ȝusterday,To habbe reneied my lay,
& seide, þat ich was ilore
& god nas nouȝt of marie bore:
& seide, algate he wolde preue,
Þat ich am in mis beleue.
Þere-fore he profreþ him to fiȝt,
To wite wheþer is more of miȝt,
Ih'u, þat is louerd min,
Or mahoun & apolyn.
Þous we habbeþ þe bataille inome,
& boþe we beþ iswore to come.”
