A uoce gemitus mei adhesit os meum carni mee.

For the voys of my weylyng
Vn-to my fleisch my boones can schrynke;
[Y say my cosyn Jon mornynge],
I say my modir in swownynge synk;
I herde a theef me scoornynge;
Galle and eisel was my drynk;
I wepte as a child of ȝeris ȝing,
On þis myscheef whenne I can þink.
