Now to goddes laude and reverence, profit of the reders, amendement of maners of the herers, encresing of worship among Loves servauntes, releving of my herte in-to grace of my jewel, 165 and fren[d]ship [in] plesance of this perle, I am stered in this making, and for nothing els; and if any good thing to mennes lyking in this scripture be founde, thanketh the maister of grace, whiche that of that good and al other is authour and principal doer. And if any thing be insufficient or els mislyking, +wyte 170 that the leudnesse of myne unable conning: for body in disese anoyeth the understanding in soule. A disesely habitacion letteth the wittes [in] many thinges, and namely in sorowe. The custome never-the-later of Love, +by long tyme of service, in termes I thinke to pursue, whiche ben lyvely to yeve understanding 175 in other thinges. But now, to enforme thee of this Margarites goodnesse, I may her not halfe preyse. Wherfore, nat she for my boke, but this book for her, is worthy to be commended, tho my book be leude; right as thinges nat for places, but places for thinges, ought to be desyred and praysed. 180 BOOK III: CH.
