Mine husband was at London all that Lent;
I had the better leisure for to play,
And for to see, and eke for to be sey* *seen
Of lusty folk; what wist I where my grace* *favour
Was shapen for to be, or in what place? *appointed

To plays of miracles, and marriages,
And weared upon me gay scarlet gites.* *gowns

That helpeth lovers, as I can, to pleyne!
For wel sit it, the sothe for to seyne,

Of al this werk, but prey yow mekely,
