Therwith I awook my-selve,
And fond me lying in my bed;
And the book that I had red,
Of Alcyone and Seys the king,
And of the goddes of sleping,
I fond it in myn honde ful even.
And fond me lying in my bed;
And the book that I had red,
Of Alcyone and Seys the king,
And of the goddes of sleping,

That I wol, by processe of tyme,
Fonde to putte this sweven in ryme
As I can best’; and that anoon.—
This was my sweven; now hit is doon.
