AGAINE OF ANE POET.
SONNET.
O ȝe quhois blissit brows both circuat beineVith greine triumphall laurell fresche and fair,
Quhois suggurit lips sueit celest liquor cleine
Distels also vpon pernass preclair,
Quho sups the sacred Nectar but compair
And drinks the doucest Ambrose maist deuyn,
Quho fouth of langage laiks not to declair
The curious knawledge of ȝour hich Ingyn,
Thocht velth ȝe vant, ȝit vorschip dois Inclyn
for guerdon dew vnto ȝour guid desert.
Ȝour paine is plesour, And ȝour plesour syn
Pretends to praise be giltit pen expert.
Expert and douce ȝe varpe ȝour vordie verse,
And frilie flows in ȝour maist sound reherse.
