In you is villainy and vice and virtue laid low !
then he graps the green gridle and lets go the knot ,hands it over in haste ,and hotly he says behold there my falsehood ,Ill hap betide it !You cut taught me cowardice ,care for my life And coveting came after ,contrary both to largesse and loyalty belonging to knights.
