BANNATYNE MS.
I nowdir fleische nor flyte
To tell the trewith certane
Talk je this In despyte
I sail not said Agane
The wysest scho May sone
Sedusit be and schent
Syne fra the deid be done
perchance sail soir repent
Ouirlait Is till lament
ffra belly dow not lane
To cry in tyme take tent
I sail not said agane
Lycht wynchis luve will fawin
Evin lyk ane span3eollis lawchter
To lat hir wamb be clawin

fifor con3ie 3e may chawcht hir
To sched hir schankis in twane
And nevir speir quhais awcht hir

Thocht bruckill wemen hantis

And wedow men pat wantis
To steill a 1 pair of swyvis
Bot quhair that mareit wyvis
