Thi neiȝboris hous, wenche, ne knawe, Vnleeffulli coueite þou nouȝt, Ne oþir good, wrong to haue, Lest þou for it to bale be brouȝt. Line 92 ¶ For whanne þe sooþe schal be up souȝt, If þou to þis synne assent, Ful bittirli it schal be bouȝt For brekinge of cristis comaundement. Line 96
Ech man þat wole þis lessoun lere, And loueþ a lawful lijf to lede, He ne may mys on no manere Þe myrþis of heuen to haue to meede; Line 100 ¶ For crist wole him heere helpe at nede, For from hens to heuene be wole him hent, For-þi praie we þat crist us spede Kindeli to kepe his comaundement. [["There is no creatour but oon," printed pp. 18-21, follows here in the MS.]] Line 104
Amen.
