Horstmann, Carl, b. 1851., Furnivall, Frederick James, 1825-1910.
¶ Ne tibi quid desit quesitis, vtere parce; Vt-que quod est serues, semper tibi deesse putato.
52.
Le tuen purchas despent
Esparniablement
Solum ceo qe vous veyeȝ mester;
E quydeȝ tote veys,
Ke tu ren ne eyeȝ,
Pur ben le meuȝ garder.
¶ Spene þi good mesurabliche,

Purchased þauȝ þei be;
And hope alle þinges þat þou hast
Awey mihte falle from þe.
