LkXJU. Than this bowlat hidowis of hair and of hyde, Put firtt fro poverte to pryce, and princis awne per ; Syne degradit fra grace, for his gret pryde, Bannyt bitterly his birth, bailefull in beir: be welterit, he wrythit, he waryit the tyde, That he was wrocht in this warld wofull in weir: be crepillit, he crengit, he carfully cryd, be ſolpit, he forowit, in lighingis ſeir. He ſaid, Allace ! J am loft, latheft of all, Byſyn in baile beft, 3 may be ſampill heir eft That pryde neuer zit left bis feit, but a fall. LXXU. 3 couth nocht won in to welth wretch that I watt, 3 was ſo wantoun of will, my werdis ar wan; Thus for my hicht 3 am hurt, and harmit in haitt, Caitfull and caytif for craft that I can : Duhen 7 was hewit as heir all thir hieatt, fra rule, refloun, and richt redles I ran ; Tharfot 3 ly in the lyme, lympit, lathalt : Now mark your mirour be me, all maner of man, Ze princis, prelattis' of pryde for penneis and prowe, That pullis the pure ay, Ze fall fyng as J ſay, All your welth will away, Thus warn zow.
