The Middle-English translation of Palladius De Re Rustica
De exili & misera vinea. Secundum capitulum. [fol. 100a.]
In Aust ek, yf the vyneyerd be lene
And she, thy vyne, a ruthful thing to se,
Thre stryk or iiij of lupynes demene [ 10]
On vche aker; so let hit wrion be.
Whenne hit is vppe and hath fertilite,
Turne hit eft in, hit dongith best the vynys—
Al other donge is infectif of wynys.
