Summe men sayen that I am blac - it is a colour for my prow; ther I love, ther is no lac, I may not be so white as thou. blac wol do as good a nede as the white at bord and bedde; and therto also trew in dede, and therto I ley my lif to wedde. Wind and water may steyne the white, iwis; the blac it may not so. ther is the blac is all my delite; I am iholde be skile therto. pepper withoute it is well blac, iwis; withinne it is not so. lat go the colour an tak the smac, this I sey by me and mo.
