Se Ānsetla stent æt ecge þǣre cūþan worulde, healdende lēohtfæt þæs glēam uneaþe hrīnþ þone pæþ beforan. Se stæf on his handa is corfen of bōge trēowes þe ǣr gemǣrde wyrtūn mynstres, his wudu geglisnod fram gēarum færeldes. Se weg under him is eald and gewiss, gesamnod of þryccedre eorþan þe hielt gemynd ælmesfōta, wǣnhweola, and stillra, ǣrrīsendra þe fērdon ǣr ǣrdæge. Ānnes is his gefēra, and scypþ þone rūm ymbe hine tō sumum nēah and nēah hāligum.

Hēr, on þissum windendum hēahnessum, dulfon ealde menn on þā hlīþ tō ātēonne þicce, calcige molde weorþe for hire wæstmbǣrnesse. Þēos eorþe, gegaderod on sunwearmum denum Tuscanie, wæs āswāpen fram gewederodum handum and boren on windlum tō weorcstōwum gefrætwodum mid lāmfatum and drȳgbordum.

Ǣlc is ancor tō þǣre worulde, þing gescypen fram gewinne and giefen andgiet fram stillre gymene. Se stæf nis āna for underwreþunge. Hē is gemynd ealra þāra þe habbaþ þisne weg gegan, getrīewende þone pæþ under.

Tō steppenne on rihtunge þæs Ānsetlan tōdæg mæg man swāpan þone heorþ oþþe þone þerscwold þā hwīle þe se morgen is gȳt cōl, and felan þā þryccedan eorþan oþþe þæt wudu under fōtum. Cnēowende on þām wyrtūne, wend þā molde mid barum handum, oþþe strīc dūst of wyrttrumum wyrta nīwan ātogenra of þām grunde. Grind caffe, hnutu, oþþe drȳge wyrta mid handa and gīem þone sang styrenesse and stences. Nim trēowtōl oþþe pensel tō scyppenne, tō bētenne, oþþe ānlīce tō fēlenne hrōf sumes þinges gescypenes fram tīde.

Se hēahweg gehȳreþ þām þe āriaþ þæt gewunelice, þe tēoþ nēah tō þām þe is nēah and sōþ. Lȳtel hring þæs lēohtfætes is genōg tō sēonne þone nīehstan stæpe, tō findanne weorþ on þām þe sēo hand mæg hrīnan.
