¶ To god, thy wedlok wiþ loue holde, In brennyng contemplacion, And make nouȝt hym cokewolde, To loue in fornycacion. Line 28 On goddis mercy be not to bolde, To falle in temptacion. Kepe charite hot, let it not colde For quenchyng of deuocion. Line 32

¶ That þou hast don siþ þou were bore, All þy lyuyng byþenk þe newe. Wheþer hast þou more in store, Or of vices or of vertue; Line 44 And wheþer hast þou folwed more Good aungel or wykked, for boþe þe sewe; Þy countretayle þey wil shewe, þe skore, In helle or in heuene, [folio 123b] wreten trewe.
