Off al the knottes that I se, I prese the knot in trenite.

An aungell fro hevn gan lyth,A greth a maydyn that was so bryth;
A treu knot ther was knyt
Betwyn them both in trinyte.
2
After ys that fayyrly fod,For hus he bled his hart blod,
Qwan he was don on the rod,
The knottes war knit with nales iij.

Wettnes of apostyll Johan,He ros hup and wold gon;
The knot was knyt with marbyl ston,
Thorow the vertu of the trenyte.
4
On Schere Thursday he steyd to hevnn,Hys fader hym blyssyd with myld stevn;
For to fulfyl the deddes wyll.
The knot was knit with persons iij.
5
God xal rysyn at domusday,Hys V. knottes for to spray;
To al men he xal say,
Lo, man, wat knot I knyt for the.
