Intende in adiutorium meum, Domine, Deus salutis mee.

To my helpyng take thow hede,
My Lord, my God, and al my helth!
Be neghe me, Lord, whan I haue nede,
And wysse me whan I am in welth.
With gostely food[e] thow me fede,
And kepe me from al flesshly felth,
And graunt me grace for some gode dede
To so the fruyt of goostly telth.
