Heir the translatour of this buk makis mensioun of thre of hys pryncipall warkis. etc.

Lo thus, followand the flowr of poetry,
The batellys and the man translait haue I;
Quhilk ȝoir ago in myne ondantit ȝouth,
Onfructuus idylness fleand, as I couth,
Of Lundeys Lufe the Remeid dyd translait;
And syne off hie Honour the Palyce wrait:
“Quhen paill Aurora, with face lamentabill,
Hir russet mantill bordowrit all with sabill, &c.”
