25. A PRAYEER TO GAUBRIELL.
Blissed Gabriel, wich broughtest first tydyngOn-to Marye, knelyng on thy kne,
Touchyng þe berthe of that hevenly kyng,
Of his conseyvyng and his natyvyte,
And how Maria, in pure virgynyte
Sholde bere a child, to socoure us alle,
For wich, O Gabriel! geyn all aduersyte
Be thow our helpe whan we to the calle.
