But I that was accustomed to eat branand flower, thought that but a sower kinde of meate. Wherfore espying acorner where lay loaves of bread for all the house I got me thither andfilled my hungry guts therewith.
THE TWENTY-FIRST CHAPTER How the Theeves stole away a Gentlewoman, and brought her to their den.
When night was come the Theeves awaked and rose up, and when they hadbuckled on their weapons, and disguised their faces with visards, theydeparted. And yet for all the great sleep that came... upon me, I could inno wise leave eating: and whereas when I was a man I could be contentedwith one or two loaves at the most, now my huts were so greedy thatthree panniers full would scantly serve me, and while I considered thesethings the morning came, and being led to a river, notwithstandingmy Assie shamefastnesse I quencht my thirst. And suddenly after, theTheeves returned home carefull and heavy, bringing no burthens withthem, no not so much as traffe or baggage, save only a maiden, thatseemed by her habit to be some gentlewoman borne, and the daughter ofsome worthy matron of that country, who was so fair and beautiful, thatthough I were an Asse, yet I had a great affection for her.
