| He who is bound by some great benefit | C |
| As to be raised from death to life again | D |
| How shall he recompense that gift or gain | E |
| Freedom from servitude so infinite | F |
| Yet if 'twere possible to pay the debt | G |
| He'd lose that kindness which we entertain | E |
| For those who serve us well since it is plain | E |
| That kindness needs some boon to quicken it | C |
| Wherefore O lady to maintain thy grace | H |
| So far above my fortune what I bring | I |
| Is rather thanklessness than courtesy | J |
| For if both met as equals face to face | H |
| She whom I love could not be called my king | I |
| There is no lordship in equality | J |
