¶ The porter falle to kepe þo ȝate, Þe stokkes with hym erly and late; Ȝif any man hase in court mys-gayne, To porter warde he schalle be tane, Line 364 Þer to a-byde þe lordes wylle, What he wille deme by ryȝtwys skylle. For wesselle clothes, þat noȝt be solde, Þe po[r]ter hase þat warde in holde. Line 368 Of strangers also þat comen to court, Þo porter schalle warne ser at a worde. Lyueray he hase of mete and drynke, And settis with hym who so hym thynke. Line 372 When so euer þo lorde remewe schalle To castelle til oþer as hit may falle, For cariage þe porter hors schalle hyre, Foure pens a pece with-in þo schyre; Line 376 Be statut he schalle take þat on þe day, Þat is þe kyngis crye in faye.
