The Aunswere
Your ffolyshe fayned hast
Ffull small effecte shall tak;
Your wordes in vayne ye wrast;
Ye get not that ye lack.
Ffull small effecte shall tak;
Your wordes in vayne ye wrast;
Ye get not that ye lack.
I wot, as ye shall ffind,
The promys I dyd mak;
No promys shall me bynd:
Ye get not that ye lack.
The promys I dyd mak;
No promys shall me bynd:
Ye get not that ye lack.
Tho tyme and place I haue
To slyd yf truthe wer slacke,
Tho styll ye crye and crave,
Ye get not that ye lacke.
To slyd yf truthe wer slacke,
Tho styll ye crye and crave,
Ye get not that ye lacke.
Bycause ye thynck yt deue,
I spek that that I spake;
And this word shalbe trewe:
Ye get not that ye lacke.
I spek that that I spake;
And this word shalbe trewe:
Ye get not that ye lacke.
