XI. Syng we alle and sey we thus,
Gramersy myn owyn purs.
Quan I have in myn purs i-now,
I may have bothe hors and plow,
And also fryndis i-now,
Throw the vertu of myn purs.
I may have bothe hors and plow,
And also fryndis i-now,
Throw the vertu of myn purs.

They wil seyn, “Go, far wil, Jak,
Thou xalt non more drynke with us.”
And ther is nowt in my pak,
They wil seyn, “Go, far wil, Jak,

Thus is al myn good i-lorn,
And myn purs al totorn,

In the stede al of myn purs.
And myn purs al totorn,
I may pleyine with an horn,
In the stede al of myn purs.
Far wil, hors, and far wil, cow,
Far wil, carte, and far wil, plow;
As I pleyid me with a bow,
I seyd, “God, quat is al this?”
Far wil, carte, and far wil, plow;
As I pleyid me with a bow,
I seyd, “God, quat is al this?”
