 * Gentle maidens two;

Their kirtles were of Ind sandal Ylaced small, jolyf and well,
 * There might none gayer go.

Their mantles were of green velvet, Y bordered with gold right well y set,
 * Y pelured with gris and gro.

Their head-es were well dight withal, Each had on a jolyf coronal
 * With sixty gems and mo.

Their faces were white as snow on down, Their rode was red, their eyen were brown,
 * I saw never none such.

The one bare of gold a basin, That other a towel white and fine,
 * Of silk that was good and rich.

Their kerchiefs wer well schyre Arrayed with a rich gold wire."—.
