Escape

Sin I fro love escaped am so fat,

I never thenk to ben in his prison lene;

Sin I am fre, I counte him not a bene.

He may answere, and seye this or that;

I do no fors, I speke right as I mene.

Sin I fro love escaped am so fat,

I never thenk to ben in his prison lene.

Love hath my name y-strike out of his sclat,

And he is strike out of my bokes clene

For ever-mo; ther is non other mene.

Sin I fro love escaped am so fat,

I never thenk to ben in his prison lene;

Sin I am fre, I counte him not a bene.
