Malcolm, thanks. I suspect "soubzrise" is "smiled" or "laughed" or some such. Anyhow with you and Jo working on it, I think we'll get a good sense of it. FYI the lyric comes from Gaston Paris and Auguste Geveart, Chansons du XVe Siècle--Publiées d'après le manuscrit de la Bibliothèque Nationale de Paris, Librarie de Firmin-Didot et Cie, Paris, 1875. Gaston Paris's note on "soubzrise" is: "La forme soubzrise, dont je fais par conjecture un participe, est régulière; l'anc. fr. [i.e. old French] disait ris pour ri; cf it. [Italian ?] riso. Thanks again, T.
