Caxton 1, folio247v image
Now leet vs sitte & drynke & make vs mery  
 And aftirward we wil his body bery  
 And aftirward it happid hym per caas  
 To take the botel there the poyson was  
 And drank and yaf his felow drynke also  
For whiche anon they steruyn bothe two  
 But certis I suppose that Auicenne  
 Wroot neuer in no canoun ne in no sene  
 More wonder sorowis of enpoysonynge  
 Thus hadde thyse wrecchis two her endynge  
Thus endid ben thyse homicides two  
 And the fals empoysoner also  
 O cursid synne ful of cursidnes  
 O traytours homicides o wickidnes  
 O glotony o luxury o hasardrye  
Thou blashemar of crist with vilonye  
 And othes grete of vsage and of pryde  
 Allas mankynde how may it betyde  
 That to thy creatour whiche that the wrought  
 And with his precyous blood the bought  
Thou art so fals and so vnkynde allas  
 Now gode men god foryeue you your trespas  
 And ware you from the synne of auarice  
 My holy pardoun may you alle warisshe  
 So that ye offir nobillis or sterlingis  
Or ellis siluer sponys brochis or ryngis  
 Bowith your heed vnder thyse holy bullis  
 Comyth vp ye wyuys offrith of your wollis  
 Your names I entre in my roll anon
