Þat what womman were in deuoutrieR.12.84: R's form is unique here (beta and F attest auoutrie). But cf. KD 2.176, where R's deuoutrie is accepted for alliterative reasons over the beta reading, auoutrie. Since F agrees with R at this point, and since the same base form shows as archetypal at C2.187 (deuoutours), there seems no reason to doubt that it represents an example of contemporary usage. MED, s. v. devoutrie, and OED2, s. v. devoutour, both cite only Piers Plowman, labelling the form as a variation / corruption of auoutrie. taken  were heR.12.84: R's form for the third-person singular feminine pronoun here is the one commonly preferred by this scribe and is, as usual, unique. F and beta agree on she. riche or pore .
