French to English translation (1 word)?

I was wonder in what "pourroy" means in French?

In context it's: "Je ne pourroy jamais estre a men aise

Si bien souvent traversant par Falaise,"

    It's old French, now we say "pourrais" : je ne pourrais jamais être à mon aise : I could never be at ease.
