Sēo carte is gesett on cleofan under hrēosanre burge, þǣr gemaca ealdra īsenfetera open ligeþ æt fōte brosniendes stapoles. Ǣr biton þās fetera on anclēowu wegfarendra þe beforan hyrnedum īdole cneowodon, ac nū restaþ hīe stilne, heora hefe ān gemynd. Þynne dūstlāgu wrēahþ þā hringas, heora ecga līþigende, þā þrēatunge dēafiende, and þēah þā þe hīe ǣr bǣron wuniaþ on þǣre healle, sittende on þǣm blǣde þe þurh brocene ēagþyrl in drīfþ. Hīe lǣdaþ heora fingras ofer þæt metel swā wære hit bēag, unbemurnen his ǣrran.
Begeondan þǣre burge crīepþ morgenmist wiþ þā eorþan, þā beorgas and þone stillan, forscruncenan orcgeard on ecge þæs tūnes forswelgende. Þā trēowu standaþ bereafod and geþyldig, heora rinde cōl and emn, heora stoccas gewitnes geara carre gymeleasnesse. Feallene bōgas and stānas on felde sind mid dēawe bewrogene, and se heofon ufan is unhiwed, nyþer þringende swā wǣge.

On cycene āhefeþ cōc þone hlid of hire briwcrocce, þone stēam wriþlian sceawigende ǣr þonne hē on þā ræftras fordwinþ. Þæs dæges hlāf, on ēagþyrles sylle tō cōlianne gesett, is on clǣnum līne bewrogen, his fealda mid carum handum flāte geþricede.
