Of Clavis and His Bed-Fellow
Of Clauis and his bed-fellow.
E PIG . 288.
C LAUIS hath wed a wife but for the bed.
And she hath matcht with him but for the borde;
And so, for seuerall ends sith they were wed
They seu'rall curtesies to each affoord:
Yet she (the Border) loues to bourd, or lest
(Or as Sir Chaucer tearmes it) with the best.
