The life of St.Norbert
fol. lr I Oye, grace & pees, loue, feith & charite
Euyr rest upon $our goodly religious breest,
To whom #at I with moost humylite
Euyr recomende me lowly as $oure preest.
And #ou$ I be of rymeris now #e leest,
$et wil I now, obeying $oure comaundment,
Put me in daungere in #is werk present.
Who schal #ese dayis make now ony #ing
But it schal be tosed & pulled as wolle?
Summe schul sey alle #is is flateryng;
Summe of charite schul preise it at #e fulle.
Now lete hem rende, lete hem hale & pulle,
Swech maner puple, for I have myn entent,
So I plese him #at $aue me comaundment
Norbert called, wich with ful hye grace,
Made a ordre #at schewith now very lith
Of good ensaumple to men in euery place.
$e noble men, if #at $e list to race,
Or rende my leuys #at I to $ou write,
$e may weel doo it; I schal $ou neuyr wite.
In $oure correccioun put I #is matere
For I wil sewe & translate #is story,
And wele I wote $oure hertis be so clere,
So ful of charite withouten trecher . . .
