Ǣr stōd Se Ānsetla on coppe þæs muntes, healdende his lēohtfæt ūp āhafen and lǣtende hit weorpan lȳtel, gewis lēoht on þone ymbhweorfendan lyft and þā stānas. Nū is se lēg belocen, forhealden. Hēr, on windscræfdum coppe, sit hē betweox stānum cealdum swā eald īsen, bewunden under heofone on blēo sciferhrōfa æfter regne. Hē fealdeþ hine on ānnesse, wendende āweg fram þām wegum neoþan, and þæt lēohtfæt is āna hefignes on his handa. Wiþsæcung manna wierþ tō wege. Nān fōtlāst ne swēgþ on þām greote, nāht būton īdlum cīge crāwena and unrōwum sice wederes ufan.
Niþer on þǣre worulde mearciaþ weallas gedelfedes sciferstānes gemǣre ofergitenra wyrtūna. Hrōfas forlorenra abbodrīca, heora tigelu gecnysede and gebēatode fram gēarum, glitniaþ þonne se mist ymbwind him. Hegas geworhte of āhēapodum stāne slingaþ ofer mōr, ragu gripende heora rūhan ansīenu, tōdǣlende nāht fram nāhte. On ǣrmorgene stariaþ fisceras on norþerrum sǣrime ūt tō sǣ, heora bātas hōfiende þǣr se heofon gǣþ on þæt wæter, and se orh is ān efn līne, unswutol, nā anginn ne ende. Se munt, þonne man hine gesiehþ of tūne, is andweardnes, his sculdru inweard gebogene, his sceadu þryccende ūt þā endemestan wearmþe dæges.
Delfend fērdon ǣr æfter ādrum under eorþan, cnysende þurh þā þryccedan bān beorga tō ceorfanne flāhas for hrōfum and flōrum. Heora handa bǣron mearca þæs weorces. Dūst setlode on heora hræglum, and þonne hīe hām cōmon tō heora cotum æt æfenglōme, þūhte se lyft clifian tō him, gemynd þāra dēopra ādra þe hīe fērdon on swīge. Se cēap wunaþ on gemynde, on hēapum āworpenra tigela behindan ealdum weorcstōwum, on bōcum gefylledum mid namum and dagum þe nān nū ne geman. Þonne cildru yrnaþ þurh þā forlǣtenan stāndelf, þonne is heora hleahtor āsmored, swā þā stānas selfe swelgaþ þone swēg.
On þǣre cycene sit mortere corfen of þiccum stāne be þām heorþe, his brerd besmiten fram gēarum grindunge wyrta and sealtes. On þām wyrtūne gaderiaþ lēaf saluian, hnesce tō hrine, dēaw þe nǣfre fullīce drȳgþ, ā healdende þā grǣgnesse ǣrdæges. Se Ānsetla mihte þās þing cnāwan, ǣr, ǣr hē his hrycg wende, ǣr hē lēt þæt lēohtfæt sweltan, ǣr hē gecwæþ þone munt his āgenum gefēran. Nū is hē hīw gegoten on þām ilcan andweorce swā ealde wyllehlid and ēagþyrelsyla, þurhwunigende ac unstyriende, þing gescypen fram īdelnesse.
On sumum æfenum belūcþ weder mid wǣtum, hefigum miste, āsmorendum ealle hīw, swā sēo woruld self þynce anbīdan and healdan hire ǣþm. Se lyft is þicce, se grund slipig, and þā wegas ūp þone munt gewītaþ, geswolgene fram þǣre swīge. Þā þe wuniaþ neoþan onǣlaþ heora ofnas and þryccaþ heora handflore tō þām stānum þe līniaþ þone heorþ, gefrēfrode mid þām ilcan andweorce þe, on þām munte, hielt gefērscipe þām Ānsetlan on his gecorendre ānlīfe.
Þū meaht belūcan þone dæg mid āhēapunge efnera stāna swā gemǣre þīnes āgenes eorþdǣles, oþþe mid berunge dǣles sciferstānes on þīnum punge tō gemynde tō healdanne swīge līþe. Gebrew saluian tēa and ǣþma þone rēc on stilnesse ǣres æfenes. Gif þū gǣst under heofone nīþrum and gehlæstum mid miste, læt þā swīge setligan innan þē, ēac āne hwīle.
