Ful worthy was he in his lordes werre. And ther-to hadde he ridden fno man ferrej As wel in Cristendorn as in hethenesse, And ever honoured for his worthiness. ' And thogh that he was worthy, he was wys, And of.his port as meke as is a rnayde. He never yet no vileinye ne sayde In al his lyf, un-to no manner Wight. He was a verray parfit gentil knight. 5 But for to tellen yow of his array, ' His hors were gode, but he ne was nat I gay. 1 Of fustian he wereh a gipoun, Al bismotered with his habergeoung For he was late y-come from his viage. And wente for to doon his pilgrimage.
