Death to the duke

Her hertoch mechtich duchtich tho velde
(den ar)men ye vordruckede gy med gewelde
(unde d)en riken liethe gy bethemen
ik wil iw ock by deme liue nemen
ik laden jw snel an den dodendantz
des gy iw noch scholen gewanen gantz

Mr Duke - mighty, skilful in the field.
The poor you suppressed with power
and the rich you let have their own way.
I will also take the life from you.
I bid you quickly to the dance of death,
which you shall be totally wont to.
