Sēo carte ætīewþ rīdere: ān hand healdþ fanan mid blācre rōsan bespotted, and behindan him þringþ sēo dægrēd betwēonan twām torrum. Þis is sēo tīd þonne sēo ealde ecg fealleþ and þæt þe æfter cymþ þurh þæt geat glent. Sēo woruld is geswīgod, gefylled mid þām ǣþme ǣr þæs ǣrestan fugles clipunge. Se lyft is nēah forst, swā hē biþ on morgenum þonne se grund gȳt nis þāwed, ac nā leng on wintres fyste beclypped. Hēr nis þæt behāt on þām þe geendaþ, ac on þām þe æfter weorþaþ, þæt þe stillulīce on þām nīwan lēohte ūpstæpþ.
On þām tīdum nū æfter sunnan ūpgange ēodon munecas hwīlum swīgende gangas, fēt brēadende calcstānenne flōr þe gearhund gesmēþodon. Heora handa rǣddon hīw ealdra stāna þe gebed āwerede. Hīe wǣron on ungedēagodum līne, hrægl æt þām midle gegaderod, spær swā bān ac hnesce of manegum þwēalum. Þās gewunan, unmǣlede mid hīwe, wǣron ǣgþer ge scyld ge lāþung, blæc þe bād þæt þæs dæges andgit wǣre āwriten on gebǣre and worde.
Elles, on þām hēan Himalayas, fundon wegfarende morgenas þǣr mist þā beorgwegas ymbclypte, and ymb gebedfanan and forstbītne stānas wand. Þis næs mist þe clifaþ and āblent, ac sum smælre. Hē brēad ofer þone weg and siþþan wæs āweg, and lǣfde lyft þe smæcte swā hē nǣfre dūst ne hēolde. On Alpis denum þrungon snāwdropan þurh ealde leaf, bellhīwe and bifigende, betwēonan þām lāfum þǣre ealdan tīde. Sēo woruld hēr wæs ǣmtig of oferflōde, eall tōdǣled tō þām þe leofode and þurhwunode.
On ealdre Rōme hēoldon lāceas bollas geworhte of smēþum porcellane, unglæsed ūtan, matte and cōle tō hrīnenne. Hīe þrūton wyrta and wyrttruman innan him, and grundon ūt stenc anises and finoles, and bidon þā rihtan tīd tō āhebbenne þæt melu and tō ināþienne þone gemynd sumeres. Þā bollas glēmon on þām ǣrestan lēohte, sōft scimer þe nam þæt þe sēo ēage nēah forgēat. On cycenum of Kiōto oþ Normandig bestēddon cōcas rīsmelu ofer bēodum tō healdanne þæt dāh fram clifunge, film swā smæl þæt hē æt þǣre ǣrestan hrīnung ādwān, and lǣfde ānlīce folmprinte oþþe þone drag þæs weligendes trēowes.
Se weder, ēac, weraþ hwīlum þis hīw. On sǣrīme Brittanie inwealcaþ sǣmist ǣr sunnan ūpgange, and bewrihþ fiscertūnas. Nett hangaþ of bendum stacum, and se morgen is āhangen betwēonan lande and sǣ, betwēonan þām þe wæs and þām þe gefangen biþ. Se mist ūp āhēfþ, and sēo woruld bītt, āþwogen and gestilled.
Tō bringenne þās hīw on þone dæg, þū meaht līnenne bēodclāþ smēþian ofer þīnum scēate ǣr morgenmēle, and gefrēdan þā stilnesse þæs morgenes on þām clāþe. Þū meaht gan scortne weg æt ǣrestum lēohte, and lǣtan þone lyft þīnne andwlitan brēadan ǣr þǣre ceastre styrunge. Sete ānfealde snāwdropan, gif þū hīe findst, on bolle on þīnum ēagþȳrelshlinde, stillu mearc þæs þe endum fylgþ. Æfter þām þe þū þīne handa þwēhst, drȳg hīe on ealdum cylne, hnesce and ungefætwod, and ongiet þone ābīd ǣr þū tō þām nīehstan þinge rǣcst.
