Master Richard, when he was left alone, tried to compose himself to devotion, but he was too much distracted by all that he had seen, until he had said ad sextam, and then he was quieter, and sat down before the table, looking upon the rood, and he did not know how long had passed before the King came in.

Master Richard refused the meat and the ale, and took the bread. The priest asked him his business, and he said he was for London to see the King.
