The mount was set full of rich flowers of silke, and especiallie full of broome slips full of cods, the branches were gréene sattin, and the flowers flat gold of damaske, which signified Plan|tagenet.

And foure woodhouses drew the mount till it came before the quéene, and then the king and his companie descended and dan|sed. Then suddenlie the mount opened, and out came six ladies all in crimsin sattin and plunket, embrode|red with gold and pearle, with French hoods on their heads, and they dansed alone. Then the lords of the mount tooke the ladies and dansed togither: and the ladies reentered, and the mount closed, and so was conueied out of the hall. Then the king shifted him, and came to the queene, and sat at the banket which was verie sumptuous.
