This is to seyn; that men ful ofte; y…wis;  1375

Mot spenden part; the remenant for to save。

For ay with gold men may the herte grave

Of him that set is up…on coveityse;

And how I mene; I shal it yow devyse。



‘The moeble which that I have in this toun  1380

Un…to my fader shal I take; and seye;

That right for trust and for savacioun

It sent is from a freend of his or tweye;

The whiche freendes ferventliche him preye

To senden after more; and that in hye;  1385

Whyl that this toun stant thus in Iupartye。



‘And that shal been an huge quantitee;

Thus shal I seyn; but; lest it folk aspyde;

This may be sent by no wight but by me;

I shal eek shewen him; if pees bityde;  1390

What frendes that ich have on every syde

Toward the court; to doon the wrathe pace

Of Priamus; and doon him stonde in grace。



‘So what for o thing and for other; swete;

I shal him so enchaunten with my sawes;  1395

That right in hevene his sowle is; shal he mete!

For al Appollo; or his clerkes lawes;

Or calculinge avayleth nought three hawes;

Desyr of gold shal so his sowle blende;

That; as me lyst; I shal wel make an ende。  1400



‘And if he wolde ought by his sort it preve

If that I lye; in certayn I shal fonde

Distorben him; and plukke him by the sleve;

Makinge his sort; and beren him on honde;

He hath not wel the goddes understonde。  1405

For goddes speken in amphibologyes;

And; for o sooth they tellen twenty lyes。



‘Eek drede fond first goddes; I suppose;

Thus shal I seyn; and that his cowarde herte

Made him amis the goddes text to glose;  1410

Whan he for ferde out of his Delphos sterte。

And but I make him sone to converte;

And doon my reed with…inne a day or tweye;

I wol to yow oblige me to deye。'



And treweliche; as writen wel I finde;  1415

That al this thing was seyd of good entente;

And that hir herte trewe was and kinde

Towardes him; and spak right as she mente;

And that she starf for wo neigh; whan she wente;

And was in purpos ever to be trewe;  1420

Thus writen they that of hir werkes knewe。



This Troilus; with herte and eres spradde;

Herde al this thing devysen to and fro;

And verraylich him semed that he hadde

The selve wit; but yet to lete hir go  1425

His herte misforyaf him ever…mo。

But fynally; he gan his herte wreste

To trusten hir; and took it for the beste。



For which the grete furie of his penaunce

Was queynt with hope; and ther…with hem bitwene  1430

Bigan for Ioye the amorouse daunce。

And as the briddes; whan the sonne is shene;

Delyten in hir song in leves grene;

Right so the wordes that they spake y…fere

Delyted hem; and made hir hertes clere。  1435



But natheles; the wending of Criseyde;

For al this world; may nought out of his minde;

For which ful ofte he pitously hir preyde;

That of hir heste he might hir trewe finde;

And seyde hire; ‘Certes; if ye be unkinde;  1440

And but ye come at day set in…to Troye;

Ne shal I never have hele; honour; ne Ioye。



‘For al…so sooth as sonne up…rist on morwe;

And; god! So wisly thou me; woful wrecche;

To reste bringe out of this cruel sorwe;  1445

I wol my…selven slee if that ye drecche。

But of my deeth though litel be to recche;

Yet; er that ye me cause so to smerte;

Dwel rather here; myn owene swete herte!



‘For trewely; myn owene lady dere;  1450

Tho sleightes yet that I have herd yow stere

Ful shaply been to failen alle y…fere。

For thus men seyn; 〃That oon thenketh the bere;

But al another thenketh his ledere。〃

Your sire is wys; and seyd is; out of drede;  1455

〃Men may the wyse at…renne; and not at…rede。〃



‘It is ful hard to halten unespyed

Bifore a crepul; for he can the craft;

Your fader is in sleighte as Argus yed;

For al be that his moeble is him biraft;  1460

His olde sleighte is yet so with him laft;

Ye shal not blende him for your womanhede;

Ne feyne a…right; and that is al my drede。



‘I noot if pees shal ever…mo bityde;

But; pees or no; for ernest ne for game;  1465

I woot; sin Calkas on the Grekis syde

Hath ones been; and lost so foule his name;

He dar no more come here ayein for shame;

For which that weye; for ought I can espye;

To trusten on; nis but a fantasye。  1470



‘Ye shal eek seen; your fader shal yow glose

To been a wyf; and as he can wel preche;

He shal som Grek so preyse and wel alose;

That ravisshen he shal yow with his speche;

Or do yow doon by force as he shal teche。  1475

And Troilus; of whom ye nil han routhe;

Shal causeles so sterven in his trouthe!



‘And over al this; your fader shal despyse

Us alle; and seyn this citee nis but lorn;

And that thassege never shal aryse;  1480

For…why the Grekes han it alle sworn

Til we be slayn; and doun our walles torn。

And thus he shal yow with his wordes fere;

That ay drede I; that ye wol bleve there。



‘Ye shul eek seen so many a lusty knight  1485

A…mong the Grekes; ful of worthinesse;

And eche of hem with herte; wit; and might

To plesen yow don al his besinesse;

That ye shul dullen of the rudenesse

Of us sely Troianes; but…if routhe  1490

Remorde yow; or vertue of your trouthe。



‘And this to me so grevous is to thinke;

That fro my brest it wol my soule rende;

Ne dredeles; in me ther may not sinke

A good opinioun; if that ye wende;  1495

For…why your faderes sleighte wol us shende。

And if ye goon; as I have told yow yore;

So thenk I nam but deed; with…oute more。



‘For which; with humble; trewe; and pitous herte;

A thousand tymes mercy I yow preye;  1500

So reweth on myn aspre peynes smerte;

And doth somwhat; as that I shal yow seye;

And lat us stele away bitwixe us tweye;

And thenk that folye is; whan man may chese;

For accident his substaunce ay to lese。  1505



‘I mene this; that sin we mowe er day

Wel stele away; and been to…gider so;

What wit were it to putten in assay;

In cas ye sholden to your fader go;

If that ye mighte come ayein or no?  1510

Thus mene I; that it were a gret folye

To putte that sikernesse in Iupertye。



‘And vulgarly to speken of substaunce

Of tresour; may we bothe with us lede

Y…nough to live in honour and plesaunce;  1515

Til in…to tyme that we shal ben dede;

And thus we may eschewen al this drede。

For everich other wey ye can recorde;

Myn herte; y…wis; may not ther…with acorde。



‘And hardily; ne dredeth no poverte;  1520

For I have kin and freendes elles…where

That; though we comen in oure bare sherte;

Us sholde neither lakke gold ne gere;

But been honured whyl we dwelten there。

And go we anoon; for; as in myn entente;  1525

This is the beste; if that ye wole assente。'



Criseyde; with a syk; right in this wyse

Answerde; ‘Y…wis; my dere herte trewe;

We may wel stele away; as ye devyse;

And finde swich unthrifty weyes newe;  1530

But afterward; ful sore it wol us rewe。

And help me god so at my moste nede

As causeles ye suffren al this drede!



‘For thilke day that I for cherisshinge

Or drede of fader; or of other wight;  1535

Or for estat; delyt; or for weddinge;

Be fals to yow; my Troilus; my knight;

Saturnes doughter; Iuno; thorugh hir might;

As wood as Athamante do me dwelle

Eternaly in Stix; the put of helle!  1540



‘And this on every god celestial

I swere it yow; and eek on eche goddesse;

On every Nymphe and deite infernal;

On Satiry and Fauny more and lesse;

That halve goddes been of wildernesse;  1545

And Attropos my threed of lyf to…breste

If I be fals; now trowe me if thow leste!



‘And thou; Simoys; that as an arwe clere

Thorugh Troye rennest ay downward to the see;

Ber witnesse of this word that seyd is here;  1550

That thilke day that ich untrewe be

To Troilus; myn owene herte free;

That thou retorne bakwarde to thy welle;

And I with body and soule sinke in helle!



‘But that ye speke; awey thus for to go  1555

And leten alle your freendes; god for…bede;

For any womman; that ye sholden so;

And namely; sin Troye hath now swich nede

Of help; and eek of o thing taketh hede;

If this were wist; my lif laye in balaunce;  1560

And your honour; god shilde us fro mischaunce!



‘And if so be that pees her…after take;

As alday happeth; after anger; game;

Why; lord! The sorwe and wo ye wolden make;

That ye ne dorste come ayein for shame!  1565

And er that ye Iuparten so your name;

Beth nought to hasty in this hote fare;

For hasty man ne wanteth never care。



‘What trowe ye the peple eek al aboute

Wolde of it seye? It is ful light to arede。  1570

They wolden seye; and swere it; out of doute;

That love ne droof yow nought to doon this dede;

But lust voluptuous and coward drede。

Thus were al lost; y…wis; myn herte dere;

Your honour; which that now shyneth so clere。  1575



‘And also thenketh on myn honestee;

That floureth yet; how foule I sholde it shende;

And with what filthe it spotted sholde be;

If in this forme I sholde with yow wende。
