Bēag wildra blōstmena rest on hire brūwe, blēda līþe bifigende on stilnesse þā hwīle þe hēo be þām lēon cnēowlaþ. Þæs miclan cattes ambergesihþ is fæst on hire stillan handa, þe his ceaflas belūcþ mid unāwendendre geþylde mā þonne mid rēþre bebode. On þissere stillan wrixlunge nis nān āhafen stæfn, nān blīc ofermōdes. Stilnes wunaþ, þæs cynnes þe on mǣdum æt dægrēde biþ funden, þonne ǣlc gærscylf hefig mid dēawe stent and stelan lætes sumeres wyrta under heora āgenre wæstmbǣrnesse sind gebīgede. Hēo ne ofercymþ þone lēon. Hēo heald hine, swā man wyrtūn healdan mihte, and lǣt þā woruld hire līþran endebyrdnesse ætīewan.
Begeondan þā sceawunge habbaþ mǣre wegstrǣta and feldas geond land bēon beorhte mid þām ilcan stelum þe hire hēafod cȳnaþ. On Norþamericaniscum mǣdum wæs sēo wyrt þe for hire trumum, feþerlīcum toppe is gehāten, hwīlum gewefen þurh mearca wuda and feldlēasa, healdende eorþan and lēoht on emnum gemete. Hēo fylde windla þāra þe wilde wyrta tō sealfum and tō tēum gaderodon, and hire stelan wǣron tōclofene and gebundne mid handum þe gearwodon tō swāpenne þone heorþ oþþe tō wyrcenne ānfealde bōta. Þǣre wyrte nama wunaþ on ealdum cēapwegum, hwīlum gewrixled mid lǣcedōmum and mid lǣcendum þe getrēowdon hire strengu tō fēgenne þone līchaman stille eft tō him selfum. On ræfterum tūnhūses geþȳd oþþe ofer þerscold gelegd, wæs hēo tācen mægenes, behāt þæt þurhwunung mæg līþe bēon, and hæling swā still swā feallende blēda.
Wegfarende on sumum landum woldon hire andweardnesse oncnāwan swā tācen lætes sumeres þurhwununge, hire rihtan stelan stormas and hweorfunge farendra nīetena þurhwuniende. On ciele æfter regnspūunge wolde se wind þurh hire feþeras cemban, būgende ac næfre brecende hīe. Ealde spell cweþaþ þæt þēos wyrt sīe brycg betwēonan þām wildan and þām begānenan, bēacn þǣr ecg wuda openum lande gieldeþ, and þǣr menn geleornodon tō þurhwunienne būtan þæt hīe þā stillan stefna þǣre worulde ādruncan. On handum þāra þe dorston nīwe land ofergān, wearþ hēo wegmearc, trymnes þæt þæt land mihte fōdan and smēale lāre bēodan, ēac þonne se weg ungewiss wæs.
On hūse mihton hire heardan stelan bēon fundene hangende tō drȳgenne on cycenum, gearwe tō smæccenne lætre hærfestes mete oþþe tō briwenne tō frōfre sārra þrota. Hire andweardnes on ēagþȳrele wæs tācen wederes þe tō nīwunge wende, still lāþung þæt lēoht ēac on þā dimmostan rūm inn ēode. Tōl dæghwāmlīces līfes, besman mid hire stelum gebundene, pūsan gefyllede tō gelimpe, bǣron stille þurhwununge, ā wyrcende and næfre gelpende. Hēr wæs mægen þe hit self ne bodode, ac mā þurhwunode, and his strengu on lȳtlum, stillum wegum lǣnde.
Gif þū wilt þis stille mægen tōdæg weorþian, meaht þū bēag þissera wildra stela of wegstrǣte gaderian, oþþe ānfeald wyrtēt of heora lēafum æt æfenglōme briwan.

Læt ǣlcne dǣd līþne and willendlicne bēon, and gēot þīnne dæg mid þǣre strengu þe nǣnigne hlyd ne dēþ.
