Oure olde lymes / mowe wel been vnweelde

But wil ne shal noght faillen / that is sooth

As many a yeer / as it is passed henne

Syn that my tappe of lyf / bigan to renne

For sikerlik whan ik was bore anon

Deeth drogh the tappe of lyf / and leet it goon
And euere sith / hath so the tappe yronne

The streem of lyf / now droppeth on the chymbe
The sely tonge / may wel rynge and chymbe
And sykerly doun̄ sonkyn is the plumbe
C
Of wrecchednesse / that passed is ful yoore

With olde folk / saue dotage is namoore

He seyde / what amounteth al this wit
What shal we speke alday / of holy writ
The deuel made / a Reue for to preche

Or of a Soutere / a Shipman / or a leche

Sey forth thy tale / and tarie noght the tyme
Lo Depeford / and it is half wey pryme
Lo Grenewych / ther many a sherewe is Inne
It were al tyme / thy tale to bigynne

Oure lymes: All witnesses except Hg Py have an adjective, usually "olde", before "lymes". El Ma Sl2 spell the noun "lemes," which has been taken as evidence of the Reeve's Norfolk dialect. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 10, 2026, 05:57)
I have: Only El Dd Ps use the pronoun "ik".
The reading "haue I" in Ch is shared by Ha5 and echoed by Bo2 among the o witnesses; it has unanimous support in a and nearly unanimous support in cd. However, the agreement of Hg El on "I haue" supported by a limited number of witnesses (but including Ha4 Ii) across the tradition, makes it a likely o reading.

sikerlik ..ik: As in lines 17 and 34, manuscript support for the ik phoneme is scarce: althrough greater than in the earlier lines. Only Hg and Ha5 have both dialect forms "sikerlik" and "ik"; the pair Ha4 Ii have "sikerlik" (possibly given oblique support in Ht's "sekerliche") and Dd has "ik". The unmarked forms are clearly the stemmatic readings, although scribal translation of dialect forms whose (putative) significance has gone unrecognized remains a possibility.

al: Ch and nine other witnesses erroneously omit "al". (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 10, 2026, 06:09)

or .. a: El contains two variants in this line, both apparently arising from a mis-anticipation of the clause structure. Initial "And", also found in Gg To1, connects the trio of professions named here to the Reeve and unsuitable preachers.
The scribal understanding that "Soutere" and "Shipman" are part of a single list, rather than forming a separate two-term comparison, explains the omission of "a" before "Shipman"; that reading is found in El Gg Ha4 and most of cd, but neither reading is stemmatically persuasive.
