Pater noster. Deus in adiutorium. God, atende to my socour [p. 79]. Lord, hyȝe, &c'. Hora nona.

Atte none ihesu cryst
Þane harde deaþ felde;
Ha grade “hely” to hys fader,
Þe soule he gan op-ȝelde.
A kniȝt wyþ one scharpe spere
Stang hyne iþe ryȝt syde;
Þerþe schok, þe sonne dym
By-come in þare tyde.
