“Consider it warly, reid oftar than anys;
Weill at a blenk sle poetry nocht tane is.”
Gawin Douglas, The Aeneid, Volume 1: Introduction, Books I - VIII
“WINTER

Puir laboureris and busy husbandmen,
Went wet and weary in the fen;
The silly sheep and their little herd-groomis
Lurkis under lea of bankis, wodes, and broomis,
And other dantit greater bestial,
Within their stabillis sesyt into stall,
Sic as mulis, horsis, oxen and kye,
Fed tuskit boaris, and fat swine in sty,
Sustainit were by manis governance
On harvest and simmeris purveyance.”
Gawin Douglas, The Poetical Works of Gavin Douglas, Bishop of Dunkeld, with Memoir, Notes, and Glossary, Volume 1
“Reid, reid agane, this volume, mair than twys:
Considir quhat hyd sentence tharin lys.”
Gawin Douglas, The Aeneid, Volume 1: Introduction, Books I - VIII
