Quoniam iniquitates mee supergresse sunt caput meum, sicut onus [graue] grauate [sunt super me].
For now aboue my heued ere growen
The werkes of my wykkednesse,
And vp-on me synnes be throwen
As birdeyn of grete heuynesse.
I may me no[whe]r now bestowen
To hyde me fro thy hastynesse;
Neuertheles ȝit, as we trowen,
Thi mercy passeth rightwisnesse.
