Now; MEA CULPA; lord! I me repente。  525



‘〃O god; that at thy disposicioun

Ledest the fyn by Iuste purveyaunce;

Of every wight; my lowe confessioun

Accepte in gree; and send me swich penaunce

As lyketh thee; but from desesperaunce;  530

That may my goost departe awey fro thee;

Thou be my sheld; for thy benignitee。



‘〃For certes; lord; so soore hath she me wounded;

That stod in blak; with loking of hir yen;

That to myn hertes botme it is y…sounded;  535

Thorugh which I woot that I mot nedes dyen;

This is the worste; I dar me not bi…wryen;

And wel the hotter been the gledes rede;

That men hem wryen with asshen pale and dede。〃



‘With that he smoot his heed adoun anoon;  540

And gan to motre; I noot what; trewely。

And I with that gan stille awey to goon;

And leet ther…of as no…thing wist hadde I;

And come ayein anoon and stood him by;

And seyde; 〃A…wake; ye slepen al to longe;  545

It semeth nat that love dooth yow longe;



‘〃That slepen so that no man may yow wake。

Who sey ever or this so dul a man?〃

〃Ye; freend;〃 quod he; 〃do ye your hedes ake

For love; and lat me liven as I can。〃  550

But though that he for wo was pale and wan;

Yet made he tho as freshe a countenaunce

As though he shulde have led the newe daunce。



‘This passed forth; til now; this other day;

It fel that I com roming al allone  555

Into his chaumbre; and fond how that he lay

Up…on his bed; but man so sore grone

Ne herde I never; and what that was his mone;

Ne wist I nought; for; as I was cominge;

Al sodeynly he lefte his compleyninge。  560



‘Of which I took somwat suspecioun;

And neer I com; and fond he wepte sore;

And god so wis be my savacioun;

As never of thing hadde I no routhe more。

For neither with engyn; ne with no lore;  565

Unethes mighte I fro the deeth him kepe;

That yet fele I myn herte for him wepe。



‘And god wot; never; sith that I was born;

Was I so bisy no man for to preche;

Ne never was to wight so depe y…sworn;  570

Or he me tolde who mighte been his leche。

But now to yow rehersen al his speche;

Or alle his woful wordes for to soune;

Ne bid me not; but ye wol see me swowne。



‘But for to save his lyf; and elles nought;  575

And to non harm of yow; thus am I driven;

And for the love of god that us hath wrought;

Swich chere him dooth; that he and I may liven。

Now have I plat to yow myn herte shriven;

And sin ye woot that myn entente is clene;  580

Tak hede ther…of; for I non yvel mene。



‘And right good thrift; I prey to god; have ye;

That han swich oon y…caught with…oute net;

And be ye wys; as ye ben fair to see;

Wel in the ring than is the ruby set。  585

Ther were never two so wel y…met;

Whan ye ben his al hool; as he is youre:

Ther mighty god yet graunte us see that houre!'



‘Nay; therof spak I not; a; ha!' quod she;

‘As helpe me god; ye shenden every deel!'  590

‘O mercy; dere nece;' anoon quod he;

‘What…so I spak; I mente nought but weel;

By Mars the god; that helmed is of steel;

Now beth nought wrooth; my blood; my nece dere。'

‘Now wel;' quod she; ‘foryeven be it here!'  595



With this he took his leve; and hoom he wente;

And lord; he was glad and wel bigoon!

Criseyde aroos; no lenger she ne stente;

But straught in…to hir closet wente anoon;

And sette here doun as stille as any stoon;  600

And every word gan up and doun to winde;

That he hadde seyd; as it com hir to minde;



And wex somdel astonied in hir thought;

Right for the newe cas; but whan that she

Was ful avysed; tho fond she right nought  605

Of peril; why she oughte afered be。

For man may love; of possibilitee;

A womman so; his herte may to…breste;

And she nought love ayein; but…if hir leste。



But as she sat allone and thoughte thus;  610

Thascry aroos at skarmish al with…oute;

And men cryde in the strete; ‘See; Troilus

Hath right now put to flight the Grekes route!'

With that gan al hir meynee for to shoute;

‘A! Go we see; caste up the latis wyde;  615

For thurgh this strete he moot to palays ryde;



‘For other wey is fro the yate noon

Of Dardanus; ther open is the cheyne。'

With that com he and al his folk anoon

An esy pas rydinge; in routes tweyne;  620

Right as his happy day was; sooth to seyne;

For which; men say; may nought disturbed be

That shal bityden of necessitee。



This Troilus sat on his baye stede;

Al armed; save his heed; ful richely;  625

And wounded was his hors; and gan to blede;

On whiche he rood a pas; ful softely;

But swych a knightly sighte; trewely;

As was on him; was nought; with…outen faile;

To loke on Mars; that god is of batayle。  630



So lyk a man of armes and a knight

He was to seen; fulfild of heigh prowesse;

For bothe he hadde a body and a might

To doon that thing; as wel as hardinesse;

And eek to seen him in his gere him dresse;  635

So fresh; so yong; so weldy semed he;

It was an heven up…on him for to see。



His helm to…hewen was in twenty places;

That by a tissew heng; his bak bihinde;

His sheld to…dasshed was with swerdes and maces;  640

In which men mighte many an arwe finde

That thirled hadde horn and nerf and rinde;

And ay the peple cryde; ‘Here cometh our Ioye;

And; next his brother; holdere up of Troye!'



For which he wex a litel reed for shame;  645

Whan he the peple up…on him herde cryen;

That to biholde it was a noble game;

How sobreliche he caste doun his yen。

Cryseyda gan al his chere aspyen;

And leet so softe it in hir herte sinke;  650

That to hir…self she seyde; ‘Who yaf me drinke?'



For of hir owene thought she wex al reed;

Remembringe hir right thus; ‘Lo; this is he

Which that myn uncle swereth he moot be deed;

But I on him have mercy and pitee;'  655

And with that thought; for pure a…shamed; she

Gan in hir heed to pulle; and that as faste;

Whyl he and al the peple for…by paste;



And gan to caste and rollen up and doun

With…inne hir thought his excellent prowesse;  660

And his estat; and also his renoun;

His wit; his shap; and eek his gentillesse;

But most hir favour was; for his distresse

Was al for hir; and thoughte it was a routhe

To sleen swich oon; if that he mente trouthe。  665



Now mighte som envyous Iangle thus;

‘This was a sodeyn love; how mighte it be

That she so lightly lovede Troilus

Right for the firste sighte; ye; pardee?'

Now who…so seyth so; mote he never thee!  670

For every thing; a ginning hath it nede

Er al be wrought; with…outen any drede。



For I sey nought that she so sodeynly

Yaf him hir love; but that she gan enclyne

To lyke him first; and I have told yow why;  675

And after that; his manhod and his pyne

Made love with…inne hir for to myne;

For which; by proces and by good servyse;

He gat hir love; and in no sodeyn wyse。



And also blisful Venus; wel arayed;  680

Sat in hir seventhe hous of hevene tho;

Disposed wel; and with aspectes payed;

To helpen sely Troilus of his wo。

And; sooth to seyn; she nas not al a fo

To Troilus in his nativitee;  685

God woot that wel the soner spedde he。



Now lat us stinte of Troilus a throwe;

That rydeth forth; and lat us tourne faste

Un…to Criseyde; that heng hir heed ful lowe;

Ther…as she sat allone; and gan to caste  690

Wher…on she wolde apoynte hir at the laste;

If it so were hir eem ne wolde cesse;

For Troilus; up…on hir for to presse。



And; lord! So she gan in hir thought argue

In this matere of which I have yow told;  695

And what to doon best were; and what eschue;

That plyted she ful ofte in many fold。

Now was hir herte warm; now was it cold;

And what she thoughte somwhat shal I wryte;

As to myn auctor listeth for to endyte。  700



She thoughte wel that Troilus persone

She knew by sighte and eek his gentillesse;

And thus she seyde; ‘Al were it nought to done;

To graunte him love; yet; for his worthinesse;

It were honour; with pley and with gladnesse;  705

In honestee; with swich a lord to dele;

For myn estat; and also for his hele。



‘Eek; wel wot I my kinges sone is he;

And sith he hath to see me swich delyt;

If I wolde utterly his sighte flee;  710

Peraunter he mighte have me in dispyt;

Thurgh which I mighte stonde in worse plyt;

Now were I wys; me hate to purchace;

With…outen nede; ther I may stonde in grace?



‘In every thing; I woot; ther lyth mesure。  715

For though a man forbede dronkenesse;

He nought for…bet that every creature

Be drinkelees for alwey; as I gesse;

Eek sith I woot for me is his distresse;

I ne oughte not for that thing him despyse;  720

Sith it is so; he meneth in good wyse。



‘And eek I knowe; of longe tyme agoon;

His thewes goode; and that he is not nyce。

Ne avauntour; seyth men; certein; he is noon;

To wys is he to do so gret a vyce;  725

Ne als I nel him never so cheryce;

That he may make avaunt; by Iuste cause;

He shal me never binde in swiche a clause。
