FIlomena is the nightīgall / & it is a lytell birde that singeth merue¦lously well / and specially at the son̄e ri¦singe / & he singeth in the somer but ne¦uer in the wynter / In the begīnynge of Maye he reioyseth so moche in his songe that he neuer slepeth or very sel¦den eteth. They feght so sore somtyme eche with other / that he that is ouercō¦men oftentymes dyeth.
