Yet forgat I to maken rehersaille |
| 300 | Of watres corosif, and of lymaille, |
| And of bodies mollificacioun, |
| And also of hire induracioun; |
| Oilles, ablucions, and metal fusible, - |
| To tellen al wolde passen any bible |
| 305 | That owher is; wherfore, as for beste, |
| Of alle thise names now wol I me reste. |
| For, as I trowe, I have yow toold ynowe |
| To reyse a feend, al looke he never so rowe. |

Yet I forgot to tell you in detail |
| 300 | Of the corrosive waters and limaille, |
| And of some bodies the mollification, |
| And on the other hand of induration, |
| Oils, and ablutions, metals fusible- |
| More than a bible it would need to tell, |
| 305 | The largest ever; therefore I think best |
| That of these names I say no more, but rest. |
| For I believe that I've told you enough |
| To raise a devil, be he never so rough. |
