[a water makith theves blynde & trewe men to see.]
Folwyng myn auctour callid Bochas Iohn,
In Sardynia, as he maketh mynde,
Serpent nor wolff in al that lond is non,
Hauyng a welle, which of veray kynde
Theuys eyen the watir maketh blynde;
To trewe folk, as he doth diffyne,
Water therof is helthe and medecyne.
