And with that word he drow him to the fere;

And took a light; and fond his contenaunce;

As for to loke up…on an old romaunce。  980



Criseyde; that was Troilus lady right;

And cleer stood on a ground of sikernesse;

Al thoughte she; hir servaunt and hir knight

Ne sholde of right non untrouthe in hir gesse;

Yet nathelees; considered his distresse;  985

And that love is in cause of swich folye;

Thus to him spak she of his Ialousye:



‘Lo; herte myn; as wolde the excellence

Of love; ayeins the which that no man may;

Ne oughte eek goodly maken resistence  990

And eek bycause I felte wel and say

Youre grete trouthe; and servyse every day;

And that your herte al myn was; sooth to seyne;

This droof me for to rewe up…on your peyne。



‘And your goodnesse have I founde alwey yit;  995

Of whiche; my dere herte and al my knight;

I thonke it yow; as fer as I have wit;

Al can I nought as muche as it were right;

And I; emforth my conninge and my might;

Have and ay shal; how sore that me smerte;  1000

Ben to yow trewe and hool; with a myn herte;



‘And dredelees; that shal be founde at preve。 

But; herte myn; what al this is to seyne

Shal wel be told; so that ye noght yow greve;

Though I to yow right on your…self compleyne。  1005

For ther…with mene I fynally the peyne;

That halt your herte and myn in hevinesse;

Fully to sleen; and every wrong redresse。



‘My goode; myn; not I for…why ne how

That Ialousye; allas! That wikked wivere;  1010

Thus causelees is cropen in…to yow;

The harm of which I wolde fayn delivere!

Allas! That he; al hool; or of him slivere;

Shuld have his refut in so digne a place;

Ther Iove him sone out of your herte arace!  1015



‘But O; thou Iove; O auctor of nature;

Is this an honour to thy deitee;

That folk ungiltif suffren here iniure;

And who that giltif is; al quit goth he?

O were it leful for to pleyne on thee;  1020

That undeserved suffrest Ialousye;

Of that I wolde up…on thee pleyne and crye!



‘Eek al my wo is this; that folk now usen

To seyn right thus; 〃Ye; Ialousye is love!〃

And wolde a busshel venim al excusen;  1025

For that o greyn of love is on it shove!

But that wot heighe god that sit above;

If it be lyker love; or hate; or grame;

And after that; it oughte bere his name。



‘But certeyn is; som maner Ialousye  1030

Is excusable more than som; y…wis。

As whan cause is; and som swich fantasye

With pietee so wel repressed is;

That it unnethe dooth or seyth amis;

But goodly drinketh up al his distresse;  1035

And that excuse I; for the gentilesse。



‘And som so ful of furie is and despyt

That it sourmounteth his repressioun;

But herte myn; ye be not in that plyt;

That thanke I god; for whiche your passioun  1040

I wol not calle it but illusioun;

Of habundaunce of love and bisy cure;

That dooth your herte this disese endure。



‘Of which I am right sory but not wrooth;

But; for my devoir and your hertes reste;  1045

Wher…so yow list; by ordal or by ooth;

By sort; or in what wyse so yow leste;

For love of god; lat preve it for the beste!

And if that I be giltif; do me deye;

Allas! What mighte I more doon or seye?'  1050



With that a fewe brighte teres newe

Owt of hir eyen fille; and thus she seyde;

‘Now god; thou wost; in thought ne dede untrewe

To Troilus was never yet Criseyde。'

With that hir heed doun in the bed she leyde;  1055

And with the shete it wreigh; and syghed sore;

And held hir pees; not o word spak she more。



But now help god to quenchen al this sorwe;

So hope I that he shal; for he best may;

For I have seyn; of a ful misty morwe  1060

Folwen ful ofte a mery someres day;

And after winter folweth grene May。

Men seen alday; and reden eek in stories;

That after sharpe shoures been victories。



This Troilus; whan he hir wordes herde;  1065

Have ye no care; him liste not to slepe;

For it thoughte him no strokes of a yerde

To here or seen Criseyde; his lady wepe;

But wel he felte aboute his herte crepe;

For every teer which that Criseyde asterte;  1070

The crampe of deeth; to streyne him by the herte。



And in his minde he gan the tyme acurse

That he cam there; and that that he was born;

For now is wikke y…turned in…to worse;

And al that labour he hath doon biforn;  1075

He wende it lost; he thoughte he nas but lorn。

‘O Pandarus;' thoughte he; ‘allas! Thy wyle

Serveth of nought; so weylaway the whyle!'



And therwithal he heng a…doun the heed;

And fil on knees; and sorwfully he sighte;  1080

What mighte he seyn? He felte he nas but deed;

For wrooth was she that shulde his sorwes lighte。

But nathelees; whan that he speken mighte;

Than seyde he thus; ‘God woot; that of this game;

Whan al is wist; than am I not to blame!'  1085



Ther…with the sorwe so his herte shette;

That from his eyen fil there not a tere;

And every spirit his vigour in…knette;

So they astoned or oppressed were。

The feling of his sorwe; or of his fere;  1090

Or of ought elles; fled was out of towne;

And doun he fel al sodeynly a…swowne。



This was no litel sorwe for to see;

But al was hust; and Pandare up as faste;

‘O nece; pees; or we be lost;' quod he;  1095

‘Beth nought agast;' But certeyn; at the laste;

For this or that; he in…to bedde him caste;

And seyde; ‘O theef; is this a mannes herte?'

And of he rente al to his bare sherte;



And seyde; ‘Nece; but ye helpe us now;  1100

Allas; your owne Troilus is lorn!'

‘Y…wis; so wolde I; and I wiste how;

Ful fayn;' quod she; ‘Allas! That I was born!'

‘Ye; nece; wole ye pullen out the thorn

That stiketh in his herte?' quod Pandare;  1105

‘Sey 〃Al foryeve;〃 and stint is al this fare!'



‘Ye; that to me;' quod she; ‘ful lever were

Than al the good the sonne aboute gooth';

And therwith…al she swoor him in his ere;

‘Y…wis; my dere herte; I am nought wrooth;  1110

Have here my trouthe and many another ooth;

Now speek to me; for it am I; Cryseyde!'

But al for nought; yet mighte he not a…breyde。



Therwith his pous and pawmes of his hondes

They gan to frote; and wete his temples tweyne;  1115

And; to deliveren him from bittre bondes;

She ofte him kiste; and; shortly for to seyne;

Him to revoken she dide al hir peyne。

And at the laste; he gan his breeth to drawe;

And of his swough sone after that adawe;  1120



And gan bet minde and reson to him take;

But wonder sore he was abayst; y…wis。

And with a syk; whan he gan bet a…wake;

He seyde; ‘O mercy; god; what thing is this?'

‘Why do ye with your…selven thus amis?'  1125

Quod tho Criseyde; ‘Is this a mannes game?

What; Troilus! Wol ye do thus; for shame?'



And therwith…al hir arm over him she leyde;

And al foryaf; and ofte tyme him keste。

He thonked hir; and to hir spak; and seyde  1130

As fil to purpos for his herte reste。

And she to that answerde him as hir leste;

And with hir goodly wordes him disporte

She gan; and ofte his sorwes to comforte。



Quod Pandarus; ‘For ought I can espyen;  1135

This light; nor I ne serven here of nought;

Light is not good for syke folkes yen。

But for the love of god; sin ye be brought

In thus good plyt; lat now non hevy thought

Ben hanginge in the hertes of yow tweye:'  1140

And bar the candele to the chimeneye。



Sone after this; though it no nede were;

Whan she swich othes as hir list devyse

Hadde of him take; hir thoughte tho no fere;

Ne cause eek non; to bidde him thennes ryse。  1145

Yet lesse thing than othes may suffyse

In many a cas; for every wight; I gesse;

That loveth wel meneth but gentilesse。



But in effect she wolde wite anoon

Of what man; and eek where; and also why  1150

He Ielous was; sin ther was cause noon;

And eek the signe; that he took it by;

She bad him that to telle hir bisily;

Or elles; certeyn; she bar him on honde;

That this was doon of malis; hir to fonde。  1155



With…outen more; shortly for to seyne;

He moste obeye un…to his lady heste;

And for the lasse harm; he moste feyne。

He seyde hir; whan she was at swiche a feste;

She mighte on him han loked at the leste;  1160

Not I not what; al dere y…nough a risshe;

As he that nedes moste a cause fisshe。



And she answerde; ‘Swete; al were it so;

What harm was that; sin I non yvel mene?

For; by that god that boughte us bothe two;  1165

In alle thinge is myn entente clene。

Swich arguments ne been not worth a bene;

Wol ye the childish Ialous contrefete?

Now were it worthy that ye were y…bete。'



Tho Troilus gan sorwfully to syke;  1170

Lest she be wrooth; him thoughte his herte deyde;

And seyde; ‘Allas! Up…on my sorwes syke

Have mercy; swete herte myn; Cryseyde!

And if that; in tho wordes that I seyde;

Be any wrong; I wol no more trespace;  1175

Do what yow list; I am al in your grace。'



And she answerde; ‘Of gilt misericorde!

That is to seyn; that I foryeve al this;

And ever…more on this night yow recorde;
