Ita non est satis nihil mihi profuisse tuam reuerentiam . nisi ultro tu potius lacereris mea offensione. Ze déro uuîs nedúnchet ín nîeht cnûoge . dáz íh tés nîeht knîezen nemág . dáz tû êruuírdig píst . tû neuuérdêst fúre míh án mír indêrêt uuánda sie míh scúldigônt.
For they trowen that I have had affinitee to malefice orenchauntement, by-cause that I am replenisshed and fulfilled with thy techinges, and enformed of thy maneres. And thus it suffiseth not only, that thy reverence ne availe me not, but-yif that thou, of thy free wille, rather be blemished with myn offencioun.
