LX. lines 10971-11412, Fr. 10865-11312 114

To all the host doth Love explain
His purpose to assault and gain
The castle, and Fair-Welcome free
From out his bonds and slavery.

LXI. lines 11413-11686, Fr. 11313-11576 128

Herein the God of Love retains
False-Seeming as his man, and gains
Applause thereby, the host doth ring
With shouts to crown him Ribalds’ King.

LXII. lines 11687-12084, Fr. 11577-11984 138

Learn how False-Seeming, traitor vile,
Men’s hearts doth readily beguile,
When grey and black he clothes him in,
With saintly visage pale and thin.

LXIII. lines 12085-12696, Fr. 11985-12592 151

False-Seeming doth the case relate
Of mendicants and their estate.

LXIV. lines 12697-12766, Fr. 12593-12666 172

False-Seeming as a pilgrim goes,
Disguised, to Evil-Tongue; and shows
Constrainèd-Abstinence likewise
Herself to him in saintly guise.

LXV. lines 12767-12846, Fr. 12667-12746 174

False-Seeming, linked with Abstinence,
To aid the Lover makes pretence
Of guesting with foul Evil-Tongue,
Whose lash hath many a good man stung.
