    yes and had cume right quiklie hither
    825But that by the waye I had a gret fall
    And my name, body shape legges and all
    And meat with one that from me did it stelle
    But be god he and I sum bloues dyd deale
    I wold he were now before your gate
    830For you wold poumile him ioylile about ye pate
    Dame Coke
    Truelie this wagepa stie is either drunkẽ or mad
    Careawaye
    Neuer man sofred so mutche wrong as I had
    835But mai steris I should saye a thinge to you
    Tary it wol cum to my remembrence euen now
    I mu st niddes vse a sub stancyal premeditacon
    For the matter lyeth gretylie mee a pon
    I besiche your mai steri shipe of pardon and forgiuenes
    840Desyering you to impute it to my simple & rude dulines
    I haue forgotten what I haue thought to haue sayed
    And am ther of full ill a paied
    But whan I lo st my selfe I knew verie well
    I lo st also that I should you tell
    845 Dame Coye
    Why thou wrechid villen doe st thou me scorne and moke
    To make me to thes folkes a laufyng stoke
    Ere thou go out of my handes yu shalt haue sum thynge
    And I woll rekine better in the mornynge
    850 Careawaye
    And yf you bete mee mai steris a vise you
    For I am none of your seruaunts now
    That other I is now your page
    And I am no longer in your bondage
    855 Dame Coye
