THE ORIEL TEXT.

[75]

Goo, litle childe, and who doth you Appose,

Seying, your_e_ quaire kepeth non accordaunce,

Tell [hym], as yite neyther of ryme ne prose 521

Ye be experte; pray hym of sufferaunce;

Childer must be of childly gouernaunce,

And they must also entredet[1] be

[Sidenote 1: _Read_ entreted]

Wyth esy thyng, [and not] of subtilte. 525

[76]

Your_e_ lytil quaier su_m_mitteth euery where

To corecc_i_on and beneuolence,

But where enuie is, loke hit come not there, 528

For eny thing kepith your_e_ trety thense;

Enuie is full of frowarde reprehense,

And howe to hurte liethe eu_er_e in awayte,

Kepeth your_e_ quaier_e_, that hit be not her baite.
