Whoso shal telle a tale after a man, He moot reher — Geoffrey Chaucer

Whoso shal telle a tale after a man, He moot reherce as ny as evere he kan Everich a word, if it be in his charge, Al speke he never so rudeliche and large, Or ellis he moot telle his tale untrewe, Or feyne thyng, or fynde wordes new.

The Canterbury Tales. Prologue, l. 731
