Lauerd saide to mi lauerd ofe might:“Site opon mi halues righte,
2
Whils .i. sal set þe faas ofe þeSchamel ofe þi fete to be”.
3
Yherde of þi mighte on-onSend sal lauerd fra Syon,
To be lauerd thurgh þe land
In middes ofe þine illewilland.
4
“With þe, biginninge in dai of þi mighte,In schineinges of haliyhes brighte;
Ofe wambe, in þis werld to be,
Bifore daistern gate .i. þe”.
5
Lauerd sware, and noghte with-al,And forthinke it noght him sal:
“Þou ert preste, ofe for to recke,
After ordre of Melchisedeke”.
6
Lauerd fra þi righthalues brekeSal kinges in dai of his wreke.
7
Deme in birthes he sal to se,Fulfille fallinges als sal he,
Sqwat sal he heuedes, blode and bane,
In þe land ofe maniane.
8
He dranke ofe wel in þe wai;For-þi he heued his heued vp ai.
