VOL. I.

DYUERS BALETTYS, &c.

Page 22. v. 13.

“He trusted her payment, and lost all hys pray.”

Dele the foot-note “Qy. pay?”—_pray_ (as I have mentioned in note, vol.

ii. 98) being doubtless the right reading.

—— v. 15.

“The ryuers rowth, the waters wan;

She sparyd not to wete her fete.”

The proper punctuation seems to be,

“The ryuers rowth, the waters wan,

She sparyd not, to wete her fete.”
