On middan þǣre cartan sittaþ twēgen līchaman, heora fetera lēase ymbe heora anclēowu. Hīe þyncaþ þæs rūmes swīge ungewis, oþþe wēnunge hīe onbyrgaþ hit, on heora stōwum wuniende, swā sēo dǣd þǣre racenteage tō berenne nū mā gewuna sīe þonne bend. Sēo flōr under him is se ealda stān crȳptes, smēþe and cōl under berum fōtum, clǣne geswōpen ac nǣfre ful dūstes bedǣled. Se lyft styreþ swā hwā nū þurh ēode, þēah nān gesewen sīe. Ānlīce lēas mearc orþes wunaþ þǣr andweardnes ǣr wæs. Nis nū nān þrēat. Se hyrneda sceadu on þǣm wealle is fordwinod, and mid him micel þæs drāmlican gefeohtes. Þæt þe wunaþ is þæt stille, mǣst clǣnsode tōmnes þe æfter ālīesednesse fylgeþ, stilnes þe man mæg for sibbe dwolman, oþþe for onsæcunge.
On þissum rūme wendeþ se mōd tō þǣm þingum þe æfwæardnesse swā swā andweardnesse mearciaþ: eald bāncīna on bēode æfter midre nihte gesett, his glæsmere þynne swā hwisprung. Sēo ungehrinene porselenboll æt ende þæs ganges, gesett tō fōnne smēþe dropan of þǣm hrōfe, is weard þæs ealdan hūses dīeglan wederes. Wiþ þone grundweall wexeþ dūst, swā hrīm on ēagþyrle gaderiende, līþe wǣge þe swēg and tīd dēafeþ. On þǣm scrydan bīdeþ geþriced handclāþ, gestefned and gefealden, hande þe hine nime oþþe nā nime. Þis sind þing lācehūsa lange ǣmtigra, gæsta hūsa gegearcodra gæste þe nǣfre cymþ. Ēac se wyrtūn, on dægrēd, ætīewþ þæt ilce swīge. Se nihtblōwenda iasmin clifaþ mid blācum fingrum tō þǣm hleortrēowe, hefig and ungesewen, þā hwīle þe se mist of þǣre ēa begeondan þǣm hege in wealceþ.
Man sægþ, on beorgtūnum, þæt mist sīe oruþ yldrena, of þǣre moldan on dægrēd rīsende. Scēaphierdas þe ǣr under calcstānclifum wandrodon gehīerdon bellan scēapa ungesewenra on þǣre wǣge, and stōpon stilne, witende þæt sēo wǣg wæs þynne betwux þǣm þe forgieten is and þǣm þe wunaþ. On sumum sǣtūnum bētaþ fisceras heora net on blæcerne on ǣrdægrēdes tīdum, ymbhringode mid swīge ealles þæs þe gȳt unætīewed is, heora handa mǣst of gemynde wyrcende. On ealdum heafodciricum gaderiaþ marmarstānhīw hālgena and engla dūst, heora ansīena mid gearhundum gesmēþode, heora opene earmas gebǣr nā leng scearp mid warnunge ac līþe, swā þā lifiendan tō reste laþiende.
Gewederode hlēowstānas standaþ on cirictūne, naman and gēar mǣst ādilegode, ac ǣlc stān biþ carefullīce begān. Mēos biþ āweg gebirsted, and lilian bēoþ forlǣtene, blāce and stincende, swā offrunga. Se weorc is endebyrdlīc, ārfæst, and smylte. On feorrum norþlandum, æfter nihte hefiges snāwes, gāþ cild ūt on sunnan ūpgange tō findenne þā woruld ādilegod and gearwe tō edsmēagenne. Heora fōtlāstas sind þā ǣrestan mearca þæs nīwan dæges, stilne swā dīegolnes.
Gif þū wille þisne dæg ārwurþian, meaht þū þone betstan bēodclāþ ālǣdan, þēah nāne gæstas ne sīen gewēnde, oþþe ēagþyrl ān ǣr dægrēde ontȳnan and þone stillan lyft þīne ansīene gehrīnan lǣtan. Feald þīn lēofost serc mid care, ǣlcne ungesewenne wund smēþende, oþþe wrīt ǣrendgewrit þǣm þe mǣst on þīnum gemyndum wunaþ and sete hit on cyste, belocen and gehealden.
