Conuertere, Domine, et eripe animam meam; saluum me fac propter misericordiam [tu]am.
Turne þe, Lord, my soule oute wynne,
Make me saffe for thy mercy;
For fowle with fethir ne fysch with fynne
Is noon vnstedfaster þanne I.
Whan I thenk what is me with-inne,
My consciens maketh a careful cry;
Therfore thy pytee, Lord, vnpynne,
That I may mende me ther-by.
