The hye desire that Y have for to se,
yeure godely and wommanly bewte.
For yeu dere hert do Y suffere penaunce,
for of my hert ye have governaunce.
Till that Y may com unto yeure presaunce,
praying to yeure gracius pyte that ye
would fuchsaffe to have mercy on me,
only to be putte to yeure remembraunce.
