Maybe this question of mine was overlooked because it was all below and
between a lot of other text, but I'm still very curious about this Middle
English YE in stead of YOW... In one of the other threads - the one about
Us for OUR - we were discussing the mixing up of personal pronouns, like
YOU for both older Ye and You (Yow). But in <who hath ye don this vileynye>
it's other way around, it seems.

You're quite right there.  With Mike's permission I'll change it.
