Classic Poem

CCI.-WALK

H ONY , Paour, doubtance of meffaire,
Attemprance to its Volente,
Large in denial and slow ottroy do
Reason, measurement, and honor honneste
Must include the cuer,
Sor and gossips all nothings encumber
And do all in Estre amoureus cowardly,
Which to make vuet shaper guard.

Sage meinteing at penre good copy,
Point to conceal love and Secretary,
Single-waiting and not sue voloir
Pluseurs li samblant by Amite,
Because for lovers kill
Foy, feed, love and loyalty keep,
These are the poins that lady cuer his guard,
Which to make vuet shaper guard.

Quar about love maint cuer in mild,
Juene, nice, franchise prepared,
Full cuidier and joieus case
And desire by plaisence engenre,
This is too much to contrester,
He often exaggerate meaning and measurement;
For Ades think these poins and looks
Which to make vuet shaper guard.
