HE

Ye shall not nede further to drede;

I will not disparage

You, (God defend!) sith ye descend

Of so great a lineage.

Now understand; to Westmoreland,

Which is mine heritage,

I will you bring; and with a ring,

By way of marriage

I will you take, and lady make,

As shortly as I can:

Thus have you won an erly's son,

And not a banished man.
