Ælla, Egwina, Servytoure, Coernyke

Ælla

Thee I ordeyne the warde; so alle maie telle.
    I have botte lyttel tym to dragge thys lyfe;
    Mie lethal tale, alyche a lethalle belle,
    Dynne yn the eares of her I wyschd mie wyfe!
    Botte, ah! shee maie be fayre.

Egwina

Yatte shee moste bee.

Ælla

Ah! saie notte foe; yatte worde woulde Ælla dobblie flee.
