¶ Now sires / quod this Osewold the Reue

I pray yow alle / that ye noght yow greue
C
Thogh I answere / and som del sette his howue

For leueful is / with force / force of showue

How that / bigiled was a Carpenter

Parauenture in scorn / for I am oon
And by youre leue / I shal hym quyte anon
Right / in his cherles termes / wol I speke
C
I pray to god / his nekke mote to breke

But ȝit i woll nat on hym me wreke
65
He kan wel / in myn eye / seen a stalke

But in his owene / he kan noght seen a balke
Here endeth the Prolog of the Tale of the Reeue
Explicit prohemium fabule prepositi

Hic Incipit fabula prepositi
¶ Heere bigynneth the Reeues Tale
At Trompyngtoun nat fer fro Cantebrygge
Theer gooth a brook and ouer that a brygge
Vp on the which brook ther stant a Melle
And this is verray sooth that I yow telle
5
A Miller was ther dwellyng many a day

As any pecok he was proud and gay
Pipen he koude and fisshe and nettes beete
And torne coppes and wel wrastle and sheete
And by his belt he baar a long panade
10
And of a swerd ful trenchaunt was the blade

A ioly popper baar he in his pouche
Ther was no man for peril dorste hym touche
A sheffeld thwitel baar he in his hose
Round was his face and camuse was his nose
15
As piled as an Ape was his skulle

Thogh: The form "Thou" can be a spelling of "thogh", but not in Ch: this is simply an error. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 10, 2026, 06:15)
is: 15 witnesses, including Ch Gg and much of cd supply the subject "it" for "is". But that reading is isolated and clearly scribal. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 10, 2026, 06:17)
dronken: The spelling "dronke" appears in El Lc To1 Py. The appearance of "dronken" everywhere else confirms its presence in the archetype. (Barbara Bordalejo and Peter Robinson, Jul 10, 2026, 06:21)

to breke: The reading "to breke" in Hg, although widely copied, seems to have caused some confusion. El Ch Gg read simply "breke" leaving the line irregular. Ad1 En3 solve that problem with "y breke". But the stemmatic support for "to breke" is substantial, bolstered by the appropriate forcefulness of the line with the emphatic prefix.
