Of thee; Pandare; I may som thank deserve。  1015



‘But; dere frend; how shal myn wo ben lesse

Til this be doon? And goode; eek tel me this;

How wiltow seyn of me and my destresse?

Lest she be wrooth; this drede I most; y…wys;

Or nil not here or trowen how it is。  1020

Al this drede I; and eek for the manere

Of thee; hir eem; she nil no swich thing here。'



Quod Pandarus; ‘Thou hast a ful gret care

Lest that the cherl may falle out of the mone!

Why; lord! I hate of the thy nyce fare!  1025

Why; entremete of that thou hast to done!

For goddes love; I bidde thee a bone;

So lat me alone; and it shal be thy beste。' 

‘Why; freend;' quod he; ‘now do right as the leste。



‘But herke; Pandare; o word; for I nolde  1030

That thou in me wendest so greet folye;

That to my lady I desiren sholde

That toucheth harm or any vilenye;

For dredelees; me were lever dye

Than she of me ought elles understode  1035

But that; that mighte sounen in…to gode。'



Tho lough this Pandare; and anoon answerde;

‘And I thy borw? Fy! No wight dooth but so;

I roughte nought though that she stode and herde

How that thou seyst; but fare…wel; I wol go。  1040

A…dieu! Be glad! God spede us bothe two!

Yif me this labour and this besinesse;

And of my speed be thyn al that swetnesse。'



Tho Troilus gan doun on knees to falle;

And Pandare in his armes hente faste;  1045

And seyde; ‘Now; fy on the Grekes alle!

Yet; pardee; god shal helpe us at the laste;

And dredelees; if that my lyf may laste;

And god to…forn; lo; som of hem shal smerte;

And yet me athinketh that this avaunt me asterte!  1050



‘Now; Pandare; I can no more seye;

But thou wys; thou wost; thou mayst; thou art al!

My lyf; my deeth; hool in thyn bonde I leye;

Help now;' Quod he; ‘Yis; by my trouthe; I shal。'

‘God yelde thee; freend; and this in special;'  1055

Quod Troilus; ‘that thou me recomaunde

To hir that to the deeth me may comaunde。'

This Pandarus tho; desirous to serve

His fulle freend; than seyde in this manere;  1059

‘Far…wel; and thenk I wol thy thank deserve;

Have here my trouthe; and that thou shalt wel here。' 

And wente his wey; thenking on this matere;

And how he best mighte hir beseche of grace;

And finde a tyme ther…to; and a place。



For every wight that hath an hous to founde  1065

Ne renneth nought the werk for to biginne

With rakel hond; but he wol byde a stounde;

And sende his hertes lyne out fro with…inne

Alderfirst his purpos for to winne。

Al this Pandare in his herte thoughte;  1070

And caste his werk ful wysly; or he wroughte。



But Troilus lay tho no lenger doun;

But up anoon up…on his stede bay;

And in the feld he pleyde tho leoun;

Wo was that Greek that with him mette that day。  1075

And in the toun his maner tho forth ay

So goodly was; and gat him so in grace;

That ech him lovede that loked on his face。



For he bicom the frendlyeste wight;

The gentileste; and eek the moste free;  1080

The thriftieste and oon the beste knight;

That in his tyme was; or mighte be。

Dede were his Iapes and his crueltee;

His heighe port and his manere estraunge;

And ech of tho gan for a vertu chaunge。  1085



Now lat us stinte of Troilus a stounde;

That fareth lyk a man that hurt is sore;

And is somdel of akinge of his wounde

Y…lissed wel; but heled no del more:

And; as an esy pacient; the lore  1090

Abit of him that gooth aboute his cure;

And thus he dryveth forth his aventure。



Explicit Liber Primus







Book II



Incipit Prohemium Secundi Libri。



  Out of these blake wawes for to sayle;

O wind; O wind; the weder ginneth clere;

For in this see the boot hath swich travayle;

Of my conning; that unnethe I it stere:

This see clepe I the tempestous matere  5

Of desespeyr that Troilus was inne:

But now of hope the calendes biginne。

O lady myn; that called art Cleo;

Thou be my speed fro this forth; and my muse;

To ryme wel this book; til I have do;  10

Me nedeth here noon other art to use。

For…why to every lovere I me excuse;

That of no sentement I this endyte;

But out of Latin in my tonge it wryte。



Wherfore I nil have neither thank ne blame  15

Of al this werk; but prey yow mekely;

Disblameth me if any word be lame;

For as myn auctor seyde; so seye I。

Eek though I speke of love unfelingly;

No wondre is; for it no…thing of newe is;  20

A blind man can nat Iuggen wel in hewis。



Ye knowe eek; that in forme of speche is chaunge

With…inne a thousand yeer; and wordes tho

That hadden prys; now wonder nyce and straunge

Us thinketh hem; and yet they spake hem so;  25

And spedde as wel in love as men now do;

Eek for to winne love in sondry ages;

In sondry londes; sondry ben usages。



And for…thy if it happe in any wyse;

That here be any lovere in this place  30

That herkneth; as the storie wol devyse;

How Troilus com to his lady grace;

And thenketh; so nolde I nat love purchace;

Or wondreth on his speche or his doinge;

I noot; but it is me no wonderinge;  35



For every wight which that to Rome went;

Halt nat o path; or alwey o manere;

Eek in som lond were al the gamen shent;

If that they ferde in love as men don here;

As thus; in open doing or in chere;  40

In visitinge; in forme; or seyde hire sawes;

For…thy men seyn; ech contree hath his lawes。



Eek scarsly been ther in this place three

That han in love seid lyk and doon in al;

For to thy purpos this may lyken thee;  45

And thee right nought; yet al is seyd or shal;

Eek som men grave in tree; som in stoon wal;

As it bitit; but sin I have begonne;

Myn auctor shal I folwen; if I conne。



Exclipit prohemium Secundi Libri。





Incipit Liber Secundus。



In May; that moder is of monthes glade;  50

That fresshe floures; blewe; and whyte; and rede;

Ben quike agayn; that winter dede made;

And ful of bawme is fleting every mede;

Whan Phebus doth his brighte bemes sprede

Right in the whyte Bole; it so bitidde  55

As I shal singe; on Mayes day the thridde;



That Pandarus; for al his wyse speche;

Felt eek his part of loves shottes kene;

That; coude he never so wel of loving preche;

It made his hewe a…day ful ofte grene;  60

So shoop it; that hym fil that day a tene

In love; for which in wo to bedde he wente;

And made; er it was day; ful many a wente。



The swalwe Proigne; with a sorwful lay;

Whan morwe com; gan make hir waymentinge;  65

Why she forshapen was; and ever lay

Pandare a…bedde; half in a slomeringe;

Til she so neigh him made hir chiteringe

How Tereus gan forth hir suster take;

That with the noyse of hir he gan a…wake;  70



And gan to calle; and dresse him up to ryse;

Remembringe him his erand was to done

From Troilus; and eek his greet empryse;

And caste and knew in good plyt was the mone

To doon viage; and took his wey ful sone  75

Un…to his neces paleys ther bi…syde;

Now Ianus; god of entree; thou him gyde!



Whan he was come un…to his neces place;

‘Wher is my lady?' to hir folk seyde he;

And they him tolde; and he forth in gan pace;  80

And fond; two othere ladyes sete and she;

With…inne a paved parlour; and they three

Herden a mayden reden hem the geste

Of the Sege of Thebes; whyl hem leste。



Quod Pandarus; ‘Ma dame; god yow see;  85

With al your book and al the companye!'

‘Ey; uncle myn; welcome y…wis;' quod she;

And up she roos; and by the hond in hye

She took him faste; and seyde; ‘This night thrye;

To goode mote it turne; of yow I mette!'  90

And with that word she doun on bench him sette。



‘Ye; nece; ye shal fare wel the bet;

If god wole; al this yeer;' quod Pandarus;

‘But I am sory that I have yow let

To herknen of your book ye preysen thus;  95

For goddes love; what seith it? tel it us。

Is it of love? O; som good ye me lere!'

‘Uncle;' quod she; ‘your maistresse is not here!'



With that they gonnen laughe; and tho she seyde;

‘This romaunce is of Thebes; that we rede;  100

And we han herd how that king Laius deyde

Thurgh Edippus his sone; and al that dede;

And here we stenten at these lettres rede;

How the bisshop; as the book can telle;

Amphiorax; fil thurgh the ground to helle。'  105



Quod Pandarus; ‘Al this knowe I my…selve;

And al the assege of Thebes and the care;

For her…of been ther maked bokes twelve: 

But lat be this; and tel me how ye fare;

Do wey your barbe; and shew your face bare;  110

Do wey your book; rys up; and lat us daunce;

And lat us don to May som observaunce。'



‘A! God forbede!' quod she。 ‘Be ye mad?

Is that a widewes lyf; so god you save?

By god; ye maken me right sore a…drad;  115

Ye ben so wilde; it semeth as ye rave!

It sete me wel bet ay in a cave

To bidde; and rede on holy seyntes lyves;

Lat maydens gon to daunce; and yonge wyves。'



‘As ever thryve I;' quod this Pandarus;  120

‘Yet coude I telle a thing to doon you pleye。'

‘Now; uncle dere;' quod she; ‘
