geoffreycaveney's Middle English theory
I may now present the reading and interpretation of the final two lines of folio page You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. , which immediately follow the five lines presented in the post above:

EVA transliteration:
[ yroleeey  arairaly  pchody  tshaly  alols  ykaly  kar  aram ]
[ dchol  chokal  saiin  dal  okalsalchey ]

Yorkist cipher letter values:
" KrcheeeK  irOrisK  pYcK  pthisK  isOsl  KtisK  tir  iriB "
" sYOs  Ydis  lO  sis  dislisYeK "

My interpretation of these lines:
" kirche-eek -- irour-isynge, picchynge, path-isynge -- is also accitynge tir-biri "
" siest side, lo! sis dis-lisynge "

Modern English translation:
" The Church also -- seeing wrath, equipping with weapons, seeing the path -- is also summoning the three regions "
" You fall down sideways, lo! [your] good fortune being ruined "

The last line, like the 3rd to last line presented in the post above, is addressed to Bolingbroke (Henry IV), again using the familiar or "disrespectful" singular "thou" form of the verb "siest". 

The penultimate line is most interesting from a historical perspective. First of all, the mention of "The Church" may be a reference to the participation of the Archbishop of York, Richard Scrope, in the rebellion against Henry IV in 1405. This episode is immortalised in Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 2. 

Moreover, the description of "summoning the three regions" may be a reference to the You are not allowed to view links.

This was the agreement made in February 1405 by Owain Glyndwr (Glendower) of Wales; Edmund Mortimer, uncle of the Yorkists' favoured claimant to the English throne, Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March; and Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland, father of "Hotspur" Henry Percy who was killed at the Battle of Shrewsbury in 1403, and who along with his son is the subject of the 7th, 6th, and 5th to last lines on this page presented above. These three parties agreed to unite in an alliance against Henry IV and upon victory to You are not allowed to view links.
