TO
BARBARA AND HER SON PHILIP

"And als he wente by a woodë schawe,

Thare mette he with a lytille knave

Came rynnande him agayne—

'Gramercy, faire Syr Isumbras,

Have pitie on us in this case,

And lifte us uppe for Marie's grace!'

N'as never childe so fayne.

Theretoe of a mayden he was ware,

That over floude ne mighte not fare,

Sir Ysumbras stoopède him thare

And uppe ahent hem twayne."
