[Thou that syttest/in this Iudiciall place]

Thou that syttest/in this Iudiciall place
Sytte vp ryght/and holde thyne handes from mede
Thyne erys from prayer/and fauoure from the chace
Let lawe be thy gyde/kepe Iustyce in thy rede
Thy Faders skynne/whiche doth thy chayer sprede
Haue in thy mynde/fall nat to lyke offence
Leste for thy faute/thou make lyke recompence.
