On feornesse ymbfōþ twēgen torras þone cyme morgenes, and þæs heofones ecg glōwþ līþelīce, and ætīewþ nīwe hīw ācenned of nihte belūcinge.

Sēo blōstm, swā stillu on þæs rīderes gripe, is mǣg þǣra þe blōwiaþ þonne se winter his feng līesaþ.

On sumum stōwum wyrcaþ cild þone grund tō hīwum, oþþe slīdaþ be wegum, and heora glōfan and wrǣdas gaderiaþ þā smalan cornas þe þurh þone lyft feallaþ. On ceastrum wendþ þæt land ofer niht. Stapas and bencas, cratu and hlyndu weorþaþ nīwe, swā hwā hæbbe wāh ofer þā ealdan worulde gedrēfed þā hwīle þe ealle slēpon. Ēac þā bysigostan strǣta weorþaþ swīgende, bewundene on stilnesse þe tō smēagunge lāþaþ.
