To lityl whyle y was here gest. My loue y loste, y make my mon. Let god now lengere wiþ ȝow rest, Now god and man is wel at on. Line 72
(10)
¶ Folk þat were fendis fere, Sulpid in synne derk as nyȝt, Now are þey fayre angels pere, As shynyng sune in goddis syȝt. Line 76 Ȝe haue resceyued ȝoure god of myȝt, Ayþer in oþer, ȝoure wille is on. Ȝoure hertys were heuy, þey may be liȝt; Glade in god, ȝe ben at on. Line 80
(11)
¶ Man, and ȝe holde my lawe, All þyn enemys shal þe drede; And þou stonde of me non awe, Þyn enemys outeray þe in dede. Line 84 For þere as I my frendis lede, Þey shul not sporne at stok ne ston. In all here werkis þey shal wel spede, Ȝif god and man be wel at on. Line 88
(12)
¶ Myn enemys, y shal reue here syȝt, Ȝeue syknes and drede, pouert and wo; My frendis, y ȝeue syȝt and myȝt, Richesse, strengþe ouer here foo; Line 92 Hem thar not drede, where þey go, Here wele and worschip, in euery won. Siþ ȝe be syker, kepe ȝow so. Now god and ȝe are [folio 110b] wel at on. Line 96
(13)
¶ Man, y aske no þyng of þyn. For loue, my loued in helle y souȝt. Ȝeue me þy loue, þy soule is myn; Or ȝeue it hym þat it [[MS. haþ it]] derrere bouȝt. Line 100
