For in a closet faste by
The Duck was hid so prively
That sche him myhte noght perceive��
And he�察�that thoghte to deceive�察 �900
Hath such arrai upon him nome��
That whanne he wolde unto hir come��
It scholde semen at hire yhe
As thogh sche verrailiche syhe
God Anubus�察�and in such wise
This ypocrite of his queintise
Awaiteth evere til sche slepte。
And thanne out of his place he crepte
So stille that sche nothing herde��
And to the bedd stalkende he ferde�察 �910
And sodeinly�察�er sche it wiste��
Beclipt in armes he hire kiste��
Wherof in wommanysshe drede
Sche wok and nyste what to rede��
Bot he with softe wordes milde
Conforteth hire and seith�察�with childe
He wolde hire make in such a kynde
That al the world schal have in mynde
The worschipe of that ilke Sone��
For he schal with the goddes wone�察 �920
And ben himself a godd also。
With suche wordes and with mo��
The whiche he feigneth in his speche��
This lady wit was al to seche��
As sche which alle trowthe weneth��
Bot he�察�that alle untrowthe meneth��
With blinde tales so hire ladde��
That all his wille of hire he hadde。
And whan him thoghte it was ynowh��
Ayein the day he him withdrowh 930
So prively that sche ne wiste
Wher he becom�察�bot as him liste
Out of the temple he goth his weie。
And sche began to bidde and preie
Upon the bare ground knelende��
And after that made hire offrende��
And to the Prestes yiftes grete
Sche yaf�察�and homward be the Strete。
The Duck hire mette and seide thus��
;The myhti godd which Anubus 940
Is hote�察�he save the�察�Pauline��
For thou art of his discipline
So holy�察�that no mannes myht
Mai do that he hath do to nyht
Of thing which thou hast evere eschuied。
Bot I his grace have so poursuied��
That I was mad his lieutenant��
Forthi be weie of covenant
Fro this day forth I am al thin��
And if thee like to be myn�察 �950
That stant upon thin oghne wille。;
Sche herde his tale and bar it stille��
And hom sche wente�察�as it befell��
Into hir chambre�察�and ther sche fell
Upon hire bedd to wepe and crie��
And seide�此 �O derke ypocrisie��
Thurgh whos dissimilacion
Of fals ymaginacion
I am thus wickedly deceived��
Bot that I have it aperceived 960
I thonke unto the goddes alle��
For thogh it ones be befalle��
It schal nevere eft whil that I live��
And thilke avou to godd I yive。;
And thus wepende sche compleigneth��
Hire faire face and al desteigneth
With wofull teres of hire ije��
So that upon this agonie
Hire housebonde is inne come��
And syh how sche was overcome 970
With sorwe�察�and axeth what hire eileth。
And sche with that hirself beweileth
Welmore than sche dede afore��
And seide�察 �Helas�察�wifhode is lore
In me�察�which whilom was honeste��
I am non other than a beste��
Now I defouled am of tuo。;
And as sche myhte speke tho��
Aschamed with a pitous onde
Sche tolde unto hir housebonde 980
The sothe of al the hole tale��
And in hire speche ded and pale
Sche swouneth welnyh to the laste。
And he hire in hise armes faste
Uphield�察�and ofte swor his oth
That he with hire is nothing wroth��
For wel he wot sche may ther noght��
Bot natheles withinne his thoght
His herte stod in sori plit��
And seide he wolde of that despit 990
Be venged�察�how so evere it falle��
And sende unto hise frendes alle。
And whan thei weren come in fere��
He tolde hem upon this matiere��
And axeth hem what was to done��
And thei avised were sone��
And seide it thoghte hem for the beste
To sette ferst his wif in reste��
And after pleigne to the king
Upon the matiere of this thing。 1000
Tho was this wofull wif conforted
Be alle weies and desported��
Til that sche was somdiel amended��
And thus a day or tuo despended��
The thridde day sche goth to pleigne
With many a worthi Citezeine��
And he with many a Citezein。
Whan themperour it herde sein��
And knew the falshed of the vice��
He seide he wolde do justice�此 �1010
And ferst he let the Prestes take��
And for thei scholde it noght forsake��
He put hem into questioun��
Bot thei of the suggestioun
Ne couthen noght a word refuse��
Bot for thei wolde hemself excuse��
The blame upon the Duck thei leide。
Bot therayein the conseil seide
That thei be noght excused so��
For he is on and thei ben tuo�察 �1020
And tuo han more wit then on��
So thilke excusement was non。
And over that was seid hem eke��
That whan men wolden vertu seke��
Men scholde it in the Prestes finde��
Here ordre is of so hyh a kinde��
That thei be Duistres of the weie��
Forthi�察�if eny man forsueie
Thurgh hem�察�thei be noght excusable。
And thus be lawe resonable 1030
Among the wise jugges there
The Prestes bothe dampned were��
So that the prive tricherie
Hid under fals Ipocrisie
Was thanne al openliche schewed��
That many a man hem hath beschrewed。
And whan the Prestes weren dede��
The temple of thilke horrible dede
Thei thoghten purge�察�and thilke ymage��
Whos cause was the pelrinage�察 �1040
Thei drowen out and als so faste
Fer into Tibre thei it caste��
Wher the Rivere it hath defied��
And thus the temple purified
Thei have of thilke horrible Sinne��
Which was that time do therinne。
Of this point such was the juise��
Bot of the Duck was other wise��
For he with love was bestad��
His dom was noght so harde lad�察 �1050
For Love put reson aweie
And can noght se the rihte weie。
And be this cause he was respited��
So that the deth him was acquited��
Bot for al that he was exiled��
For he his love hath so beguiled��
That he schal nevere come ayein��
For who that is to trowthe unplein��
He may noght failen of vengance。
And ek to take remembrance 1060
Of that Ypocrisie hath wroght
On other half�察�men scholde noght
To lihtly lieve al that thei hiere��
Bot thanne scholde a wisman stiere
The Schip�察�whan suche wyndes blowe��
For ferst thogh thei beginne lowe��
At ende thei be noght menable��
Bot al tobreken Mast and Cable��
So that the Schip with sodein blast��
Whan men lest wene�察�is overcast�察 �1070
As now fulofte a man mai se��
And of old time how it hath be
I finde a gret experience��
Wherof to take an evidence
Good is�察�and to be war also
Of the peril�察�er him be wo。
Of hem that ben so derk withinne��
At Troie also if we beginne��
Ipocrisie it hath betraied��
For whan the Greks hadde al assaied�察 �1080
And founde that be no bataille
Ne be no Siege it myhte availe
The toun to winne thurgh prouesse��
This vice feigned of simplesce
Thurgh sleyhte of Calcas and of Crise
It wan be such a maner wise。
An Hors of Bras thei let do forge
Of such entaile�察�of such a forge��
That in this world was nevere man
That such an other werk began。 1090
The crafti werkman Epius
It made�察�and forto telle thus��
The Greks�察�that thoghten to beguile
The kyng of Troie�察�in thilke while
With Anthenor and with Enee��
That were bothe of the Cite
And of the conseil the wiseste��
The richeste and the myhtieste��
In prive place so thei trete
With fair beheste and yiftes grete 1100
Of gold�察�that thei hem have engined��
Togedre and whan thei be covined��
Thei feignen forto make a pes��
And under that yit natheles
Thei schopen the destruccioun
Bothe of the kyng and of the toun。
And thus the false pees was take
Of hem of Grece and undertake��
And therupon thei founde a weie��
Wher strengthe myhte noght aweie�察 �1110
That sleihte scholde helpe thanne��
And of an ynche a large spanne
Be colour of the pees thei made��
And tolden how thei weren glade
Of that thei stoden in acord��
And for it schal ben of record��
Unto the kyng the Gregois seiden��
Be weie of love and this thei preiden��
As thei that wolde his thonk deserve��
A Sacrifice unto Minerve�察 �1120
The pes to kepe in good entente��
Thei mosten offre er that thei wente。
The kyng conseiled in this cas
Be Anthenor and Eneas
Therto hath yoven his assent��
So was the pleine trowthe blent
Thurgh contrefet Ipocrisie
Of that thei scholden sacrifie。
The Greks under the holinesse
Anon with alle besinesse 1130
Here Hors of Bras let faire dihte��
Which was to sen a wonder sihte��
For it was trapped of himselve��
And hadde of smale whieles twelve��
Upon the whiche men ynowe
With craft toward the toun it drowe��
And goth glistrende ayein the Sunne。
Tho was ther joie ynowh begunne��
For Troie in gret devocioun
Cam also with processioun 1140
Ayein this noble Sacrifise
With gret honour�察�and in this wise
Unto the gates thei it broghte。
Bot of here entre whan thei soghte��
The gates weren al to smale��
And therupon was many a tale��
Bot for the worschipe of Minerve��
To whom thei comen forto serve��
Thei of the toun�察�whiche understode
That al this thing was do for goode�察 �1150
For pes�察�wherof that thei ben glade��
The gates that Neptunus made
A thousend wynter ther tofore��
Thei have anon tobroke and tore��
The stronge walles doun thei bete��
So that in to the large strete
This Hors with gret solempnite
Was broght withinne the Cite��
And offred with gret reverence��
Which was to Troie an evidence 1160
Of love and pes for everemo。
The Gregois token leve tho
With al the hole felaschipe��
And forth thei wenten into Schipe
And crossen seil and made hem yare��
Anon as thogh thei wolden fare��
Bot whan the blake wynter nyht
Withoute Mone or Sterre lyht
Bederked hath the water Stronde��
Al prively thei gon to londe 1170
Ful armed out of the navie。
Synon�察�which mad was here aspie
Withinne Troie�察�as was conspired��
Whan time was a tokne hath fired��
And thei with that here weie holden��
And comen in riht as thei wolden��
Ther as the gate was tobroke。
The pourpos was full take and spoke��
Er eny man may take kepe��
Whil that the Cite was aslepe�察 �1180
Thei slowen al that was withinne��
And token what thei myhten wynne
Of such good as was sufficant��
And brenden up the remenant。
And thus cam out the tricherie��
Which under fals Ypocrisie
Was hid�察�and thei that wende pees
Tho myhten finde no reles
Of thilke swerd which al devoureth。
Fulofte and thus the swete soureth�察 �1190
Whan it is knowe to the tast��
He spilleth many a word in wast
That schal with such a poeple trete��
For whan he weneth most beyete��
Thanne is he schape most to lese。
And riht so if a womman chese
Upon the wordes that sche hiereth
Som man�察�whan he most trewe appiereth��
Thanne is he forthest fro the trowthe��
Bot yit fulofte�察�and that is rowthe�察 �1200
Thei speden that ben most untrewe
And loven every day a newe��
Wherof the lief is after loth
And love hath cause to be wroth。
Bot what man that his lust desireth
Of love�察�and therupon conspireth
With wordes feigned to deceive��
He schal noght faile to receive
His peine�察�as it is ofte sene。
Forthi�察�my Sone�察�as I thee mene�察 �1210
It sit the wel to taken hiede
That thou eschuie of thi manhiede
Ipocrisie and his semblant��
That thou ne be noght deceivant��
To make a womman to believe
Thing which is noght in thi bilieve��
For in such feint Ipocrisie
Of love is al the tricherie��
Thurgh which love is deceived ofte��
For feigned semblant is so softe�察 �1220
Unethes love may be war。
Forthi�察�my Sone�察�as I wel dar��
I charge thee to fle that vice��
That many a womman hath mad nice��
Bot lok thou dele noght withal。
Iwiss�察�fader�察�nomor I schal。
Now�察�Sone�察�kep that thou hast swore��
For this that thou hast herd before
Is seid the ferste point of Pride��
And next upon that other side�察 �123
