Of courteous Limozin wight	A
Gobertz I will indite	A
From Poicebot had he his right	A
Of gentlehood	A
Made monk in his own despite	A
In San L onart the white	A
Withal to sing and to write	A
Coblas he could	A
	-
Learning had he and rare	B
Music and gai saber	C
No monk with him to compare	B
In that monast'ry	B
Full lusty he was to bear	B
Cowl and chaplet of hair	B
God willeth monks for to wear	B
For sanctity	A
	-
There in dortoir as he lay	D
To this Gobertz by my fay	D
Came fair women to play	D
In his sleep	E
Then he had old to pray	D
Fresh and silken came they	D
With eyen saucy and gray	D
That set him weep	E
	-
May was the month and soft	A
The singing nights up aloft	A
The quarter moon swam and scoffed	A
His unease	F
Rose this Gobertz and doffed	A
His habit and left that croft	A
Crying Eleison oft	A
At Venus' knees	F
	-
Heartly the road and the town	G
Maul on over the down	G
Sought he and the renown	G
Of Savaric	H
To that good knight he knelt down	G
Asking of him in bown	I
Almesse of laurel crown	G
For his music	H
	-
Fair him Savaric spake	H
If coblas you know to make	H
Song and music to wake	H
For your part	A
Horse and lute shall you take	H
Of Jongleur lightly forsake	H
Cloister for woodland brake	H
With good heart	A
	-
Down the high month of May	D
Now rideth Gobertz his way	D
To Aix to Puy to Alais	F
To Albi the old	A
In Toulouse mindeth to stay	D
With Count Simon the Gay	D
There to abide what day	D
Love shall hold	A
	-
Shrill riseth his song	H
Cobla lai or tenzon	G
None can render him wrong	H
In that meinie	G
Love alone that erelong	H
Showed him in all that throng	H
Of ladies Tibors the young	H
None but she	A
	-
She was high hearted and fair	B
Low breasted with hair	B
Gilded and eyes of vair	B
In burning face	F
On her Gobertz astare	B
Looking stood quaking there	B
To see so debonnair	B
Hold her place	F
	-
Proud donzela and free	B
To clip nor to kiss had she	B
Tal nt nor for minstrelsy	F
Was she fain	G
Mistress never would be	B
Nor master have but her fee	B
She vowed to sweet Chastity	B
Her suzerain	G
	-
Then this Gobertz anon	G
Returneth to Maul on	G
To Savaric maketh moan	G
On his knees	F
Other pray'r hath he none	G
Save this Sir let me begone	G
Whence I came since fordone	G
My expertise	F
	-
Quod Savaric Hast thou sped	A
So ill in amors Answer d	B
This Gobertz By my head	A
She scorneth me	B
Hauberc and arms then instead	A
Of lute and begarlanded	A
Poll take you he said	A
For errantry	B
	-
Now rides he out a dubbed knight	A
The Spanish road for to fight	A
Paynimry day and night	A
Urgeth he	B
In Saragoza the bright	A
And Pampluna with might	A
Seeketh he what respite	A
For grief there be	B
	-
War dimmed grew his gear	B
Grim his visage in fear	B
Listened Mahound his cheer	B
Deep in Hell	J
Fled his legions to hear	B
Gobertz the knight draw near	B
Now he closeth the year	B
In Compostell	J
	-
Offering there hath he made	A
Saint James candles him paid	A
Gold on the shrine hath laid	A
Now Gobertz	F
Is for Toulouse where that maid	A
Tibors wonned unafraid	A
Of Love and his accolade	A
That breaketh hearts	F
	-
He rode north and by east	A
Nor rider spared he nor beast	A
Nor tempered spur till at least	A
Forth of Spain	G
Not for mass bell nor priest	A
For fast day nor yet for feast	A
Stayed he till voyage ceased	A
In Aquitaine	G
	-
Now remaineth to tell	J
What this Gobertz befell	J
When that he sought hostel	J
In his land	A
Dined he well drank he well	J
Envy then had somedeal	J
With women free in bordel	J
For to spend	A
	-
In poor alberc goeth he	B
Where bought pleasure may be	B
Careless proffereth fee	B
For his bliss	F
O Gobertz look to thee	B
Such a sight shalt thou see	B
Will make the red blood to flee	B
Thy heart ywis	B
	-
Fair woman they bring him in	G
Shamefast in her burning sin	G
All afire is his skin	G
Par amors	B
Look not of her look to win	G
Dare not lift up her chin	G
Gobertz in that soiled fond thing	H
Lo Tibors	B
	-
O love O love out alas	B
That it should come to this pass	B
And thou be even as I was	B
In green youth	K
Whenas delight and solace	B
Served I with wantonness	B
And burned anon like the grass	B
To this ruth	K
	-
But then lift she her sad eyes	B
Gray like wet morning skies	B
That wait the sun to arise	B
Tears to amend	A
Gobertz amic so she cries	B
By Jesus' agonies	B
Hither come I by lies	B
Of false friend	A
	-
Sir Richart de Laund he hight	A
Who fair promised me plight	A
Of word and ring on a night	A
Of no fame	L
So then evilly bright	A
Had his will and delight	A
Of me and fled unrequite	A
For my shame	L
	-
Alas and now to my thought	A
Flieth the woe that I wrought	A
Thee Gobertz that distraught	A
Thou didst fare	B
Now a vile thing of nought	A
Fare I that once was so haught	A
And free and could not be taught	A
By thy care	B
	-
But Gobertz seeth no less	B
Her honour and her sweetness	B
Soon her small hand to kiss	B
Taketh he	B
Saying Now for that stress	B
Drave thee here thou shalt bless	B
God for so ending this	B
Thy penury	B
	-
Yet she would bid him away	D
Seeking her sooth to say	D
In what woful array	D
She was cast	A
Nay said he but sweet may	D
Here must we bide until day	D
Then to church and to pray	D
Go we fast	A
	-
Now then to all his tal nt	A
Seeing how he was bent	A
Him the comfort she lent	A
Of her mind	A
Cried Gobertz well content	A
If love by dreariment	A
Cometh that was well spent	A
As I find	A
	-
Thereafter somewhat they slept	A
When to his arms she had crept	A
For comfort and freely wept	A
Sin away	D
Up betimes then he leapt	A
Calling her name forth she stept	A
Meek disposed to accept	A
What he say	D
	-
By hill road taketh he her	B
To the gray nuns of Beaucaire	B
There to shred off her hair	B
And take veil	J
Himself to cloister will fare	B
Monk to be with good care	B
For their two souls May his pray'r	B
Them avail	J
