And forthermore, this shal ye swere, that ye
Agayn my choys shul neither grucche ne stryve; 170
For sith I shal forgoon my libertee
At your requeste, as ever moot I thryve,
Ther as myn herte is set, ther wol I wyve;
And but ye wole assente in swich manere,
I prey yow, speketh na-more of this matere.’ 175
