4725 And anger full of habundaunce,
4726 And a gredy suffisaunce;
4727 Delite right full of hevynesse,
4728 And dreried full of gladnesse;
4729 Bitter swetnesse and swete errour,
4730 Right evell savoured good savour;
4731 Sen that pdoun hath withynne,
4732 And pdoun spotted withoute synne;
4733 A peyne also it is, Ioious,
4734 And felonye right pitous;
4735 Also pley that selde is stable,
4736 And stedefast, right mevable;
4737 A strengthe, weyked to stonde upright,
4738 And feblenesse, full of myght;

4740 And ioie full of turmentrie;
4741 A laughter it is, weping Ay,
4742 Reste, that traveyleth nyght and day;
