Vnto my dygnyte+' dere sall diewly be dyghte
A place full of plente+' to my plesyng at ply;
And therewith als wyll I haue wroght
Many dyuers . . .

\LDr. Cyc. Yk.19 I:Herod Herod
\N1 Powre bewsheris aboute,
Peyne of lyme and lande,
Stente of youre steuenes stoute
And stille as stone y+oe stande,
And my carping recorde.
Y+Oe aught to dare and doute,
And lere you lowe to lowte
To me youre louely lord.
Y+Oe awe in felde and towne
To bowe at my bidding,
With reuerence and renoune,
As fallis for swilk a kyng,
T+He lordlyest on lyue.
Who herto is noght bowne,
Be allmyghty Mahounde,
To dede I schall hym dryue.
So bolde loke no man be
For to aske helpe ne \#helde
But of Mahounde and me,
T+Hat hase t+his worlde in welde,
To mayntayne vs emell.
For welle of welthe are we
And my cheffe helpe is he;
Herto what can y+oe tell?
\SDr. Cyc. Yk.19 I:Cons.1 Consolator 1
\N25 Lord, what you likis to do
All folke will be full fayne
To take entente t+herto,
And none grucche t+heragayne.
T+Hat full wele witte shall y+oe,
And yf t+hai wolde noy+ot soo
We shulde sone wirke t+ham woo.

\LDr. Cyc. Yk.31 Tr:Rex Rex
\N1 Pes, ye brothellis and browlys in t+his broydenesse inbrased,
And freykis t+hat are frendely your freykenesse to frayne,
Youre tounges fro tretyng of triffillis be trased,
Or t+his brande t+hat is bright schall breste in youre brayne.
Plextis for no plasis but platte you to t+his playne,
And drawe to no drofyng but dresse you to drede,
With dasshis.
Traueylis noy+ot as traytours t+hat tristis in trayne,
Or by t+he bloode t+hat Mahounde bledde with t+his blad schal ye blede.
T+Hus schall I brittyn all youre bones on brede,
Y+Oae, and lusshe all youre lymmys with lasschis.
Dragons t+hat are dredfull schall derke in t+her \#dennes
In wrathe when we writhe, or in wrathenesse ar wapped.
Agaynste jeauntis ongentill haue we joined with ingendis,
And swannys t+hat are swymmyng to oure swetnes schall be suapped,
And joged doune t+her jolynes oure gentries engenderand.
Whoso repreue oure estate we schall choppe t+ham in cheynes,
All renkkis t+hat are renand . . .

\N1 Allas, to woo t+hat we wer wrought,
Hadde never no men so mekill t+hought,
Sen that oure lorde to dede was brought
With Jewes fell;
Oute of t+his steede ne durste we noght,
But here ay dwelle.

\N7 Here haue we dwelte with peynes strang;
Of oure liffe vs lothis, we leve to lange,
For sen the Jewes wrought vs t+hat wrong
Oure lorde to sloo,
Durste we neuere come t+hame emang,
Ne hense to goo.

And bittir paynes wolde putte vs till.
Therfore I rede t+hat we dwelle stille
Here t+her we lende,
Vnto t+hat Criste oure lorde vs wille
Some socoure sende.

Input Conventions for CCRH Texts
What our programs assume is plain ASCII, but how an individual prepares
a text is of no concern. Our caution is that many Word Processing programs
make use of "other" ASCII characters which are not displayed and which will
interfere with the running of our software. For preparing text-files, we
recommend KEDIT, the text editor of the Mansfield Software Group.
The difficulty with preparing any text for processing is coming to
understand that a literal representation of one's text is inadequate for a
variety of reasons. In reading, we make many distinctions which we do not
believe should have to be made by the software. For example, often the closing
single quotation mark looks just like an apostrophe, the period marking an
abbreviation looks just like the period marking the end of a sentence, and
a hyphen at the end of a printed line of text may or may not be a part of the
spelling of the . . .
