 trust not my lord . 790 For I wote wel & knowe verily that  
 he is debonayr . meke . large and curteys 791 and no thing  
 desirous ne couetous of good ne ryches . 792 For ther nys no  
 thing in thys world that he desireth more than worship  
 and honour . 793 Furthermore I knowe and am ful sure that  
 he shal no thing do in thys dede wyth oute my counceyll .  
 794 And I shal so werke in this caas that by the grace of our  
 lord god ye shal be reconsiled vnto vs / 795 Than said they  
 with one voys / worshipfull lady we put vs & our goodes  
 in your will and disposition al fully 796 And be redy for to  
 come what day that it lyke to your noblesse to assigne vs  
 797 for to make our obligations and bondes also stronge as  
 it shal like vnto your goodnes 798 that we mowe fulfylle the  
 wyll of yow and my lord Mellebe . 799 Whan dame prudence  
 had herd thanswers of these men / She had hem retorne a  
 gayn pryuely . 800 And she retorned agayn to her lord Mel
