O swete leuedy, wat þe was wo,
Þo cryst was do of rode!
For as a mesel þer he lay,
A-stouned, in spote and blode.

For-bere wepyng ne myȝt hy
Þat seȝe al hou þou weptyst;
Al hy þe seȝe of hym blody,
So ofte þou hine by-cleptyst.

And ase he þolede þe fylþe
For felþe of oure sennes,
Helpe ous, leuedy, we clene be,
Wanne we scholle wende hennes.
