LUCIFER.

At Lucifer, though he an angel were,

And nat a man, at him I wol biginne; 3190

For, thogh fortune may non angel dere, (11)

From heigh degree yet fel he for his sinne

Doun in-to helle, wher he yet is inne.

O Lucifer! brightest of angels alle,

Now artow Sathanas, that maist nat twinne 3195

Out of miserie, in which that thou art falle.

3191. E. though; Hn. thogh.
