Ye Carpette KnyghteI have a horse, a ryghte good horse, Ne doe Y envye those Who scoure ye playne yn headye course Tyll soddayne on theyre nose They lyghte wyth unexpected force Yt ys, a horse of clothes.
I have a saddel, "Say'st thou soe? Wyth styrruppes, Knyghte, to boote?" I sayde not that, I answere "Noe", Yt lacketh such, I woote: Yt ys a mutton-saddel, loe! Parte of ye fleecye brute.
I have a bytte, a ryghte good bytte, As shall bee seene yn tyme. Ye jawe of horse yt wyll not fytte; Yts use ys more sublyme. Fayre Syr, how deemest thou of yt? Yt ys, thys bytte of rhyme.
