On þǣre carte flēowþ wæter on stæþigum bogan of ānum calice on ōþerne, on lyfte gefangen be stillum līchaman þe stent be smyltum pōle. Mid ǣlcre wrixle ne spilþ þæt wæter ne ne tōbersteþ. Hit gemengþ, setlaþ, wendeþ. Ymbe þone pōl swegiaþ hrēod on stillum winde, and se smala fōtpæþ windþ āweg tō feorrum hrycge, his brād mid lēohte besprenged þe þurh ǣrdæges mist seolfaþ. Eall styrenes hēr þyncþ gemeten and andgietfull, swā eall sēo gesihþ sīe tōgædere geheald þurh þā ānfealdan dǣd carfulre gemengunge.
Be sumum sǣriman, þǣr ēamūþas wīde tō sǣ openiaþ, streciaþ mersc fela mīla, þicce mid beddum sǣwyrta and sǣfencle. On þissum flōdstōwum gāþ sōcendas on gumscōn æt ǣrdæge, and snīþaþ hnesce stelan þe man tōsprengeþ ofer gebrǣdne fisc oþþe on croccas þecþ tō sealte. Sēo lyft is mid sealte geflæten, and mǣwas hwirfliaþ bufan, cīgenda ofer stilnesse līþra ȳþa. Ealde trēowene bātas, ūp on þone sǣriman getogene, healdaþ drīgende nett and rāpas, and hira hūlas scīnaþ mid þām wǣtan þære nihtes rēnes. Þās merscas ne sind ān land ne ān wæter, ac ā bēgen, gemōtstōw þǣr mearca stille tōlīesaþ and nīwe þing hīw nimaþ.
On cicenum gehende þām mersce rǣcaþ cōcas tō glæsbollum and stānmorterum tō cnyssenne spryttlan petersilian and mintan, and mengaþ hīe wiþ citrum and ele tō sealtse þe þone sǣswæcc innhūs bringþ. Hēr gāþ handa slāwe, getemprode tō ryne ceorfunge, hrērunge, and gemengunge. On þām ēagþȳrelþerscolde healdaþ croccas scēafas wildra wyrta, gegaderode on morgenes cōlnesse, hira stelan dropum of wyrtūnes wæterfæte slīdende. Wæterfæt, his glæs swegende swā þā smalan flōdpolas þe se ebba lǣfde, stent gearu tō gēotenne wæter tō tē oþþe tō broþe, gemynd þæt fōda cymþ oft of þǣre ānfealdestan gemengunge andwista.
Furþor ūp on þām fōtpæþe spryttaþ feld, mid hegum gemearcod, ræwa pīsa and bēana. Æfter hnescre rēne giefþ sēo eorþe clǣnne stenc gimmstānes, and wyrtweardas on brādum hættum gāþ stille betwēonan þām rǣwum, nimmende handfula friscra codda and wīpiende handa on heardum līnhræglum. Of þām heggum gaderiaþ cild smēþe stānas and sceardas flōdtrēowes, gesceapen be unārīmedum flōdum, and beraþ hīe hām tō tācnum þāra stōwa þǣr wæter and eorþe mētaþ.
Gif þū wilt emnet on þīnne dæg bringan, fyll croccan mid wætere and sete hine on þīnum bēode, and ongiet hū sēo brād setlaþ þonne hēo unāstyred wunaþ. Briw calic tē mid mintan oþþe basilican, and lǣt þā lēaf wǣtan and gemengan ǣr þū drince. Gadera handful āþwegenra stāna oþþe scella, and gesete hīe be þīnum ēagþȳrele oþþe on þīnum bēode, and gemyne hū tīd and flōd hīe scōpon. Nim hwīle tō gānne ūt æfter rene, and orþa þā friscan lyft þā hwīle þe þū sceawast dropan gaderian and slīdan be þǣre eorþan.
