pater noster þou be prayande,
Ay to þou here þo preste be sayande
per omnia secula al on hight.
Þen I wold þou stode vp right,
for he wil saie with hegh steuen
pater noster to god of heuen;
herken him with gode wille,
and whils he saies, hold þe stille,
bot answere at temptacionem:
set libera nos a malo, amen—
hit were no nede þe þis to ken,
for who con not þis are lewed men.
When þis is done, saye priuely—
other prayer none þerby—
pater noster first in laten,
and sithen in englishe als here is wryten:
Fader oure, þat is in heuen,
Ay to þou here þo preste be sayande

and lede vs in no foundynge,
bot shild vs fro al wicked þinge.
Amen.
