Þe righte feyþ wolde he nought halde;
His wikkednesse ys to mene;
To Iust & Mellite dide he tene;
He & Sygbertes sones þre,
In to ffraunce dide þem fle.

He knew wel he had mis-don,
& þorow þe byschop Lauraunce
He hadde on Crist god affiaunce.
Þre of Sygbertes sones were slayn,
Þe bischopes come to londe agayn.
