Confessio Amantis; Or, Tales of the Seven Deadly Sins

For alle resoun wolde this, That unto him which the heved is The membres buxom scholden bowe, And he scholde ek her trowthe allowe, With al his herte and make hem chiere, For good consail is good to hiere.

所有的理智都希望这样，即对于那些作为头颅的人，成员应该顺从，他也应该认可他们的忠诚，全心全意地让他们感到高兴，因为好的建议是值得听取的。

Est amor egra salus, vexata quies, pius error, Bellica pax, vulnus dulce, suaue malum.

爱是病弱的健康，烦恼的安宁，虔诚的错误，战争的和平，甜蜜的伤害，温和的恶。
