On wyrtūne þǣr sēo lyft is stillu and līþe standaþ twēgen līchaman æt ecge weges, and se grund under him is gehnesced mid blēdum ǣrra pēoniana. Þis is sēo tīd ǣr þām dōme, þonne sēo woruld hīe self gaderaþ and hielt stillne orþ. Þā trēowu hēr, pæccan æppel oþþe ciris, habbaþ heora blōstman āworpen swā smēþe lāþunga, and bewrigen þā eorþan mid blōstum þe mearciaþ þerscold. Sēo cēos nis genīeded ne gehræded.

On ēaste sind cirisorceardas stōwa behāta, þǣr nīwe geþoftscipes sind geblētsode on þām scortum dagum blōstmrēnes. Gȳt nū, on stillum hyrnum þisse worulde, settaþ wyrtweardas ealde porsellinnan bledu fulle geswētodes rōswæteres, and hopiaþ tō berenne þā swētnesse lufan intō þām hūse.

Sēo cycene hæfþ ēac hire āgene līþan mynegunga. On lenctenmorgen mæg man snīþan snǣd grēpæpples and settan hīe wiþ hunigbrēad, oþþe fealdan clāþnæpphan mid wilde rōsan gemearcodne wiþ þone tēapott, swā þæt se bēod wyrþ lȳtel scēawere þæs wyrtūnes hyhtes. On ealdum burgum be þǣre Middelsǣ ætīewaþ þæs bæceres ēagþȳrelu lēohte smeorcync mid crystalledum rōsblēdum bestēdde, smeamete gebrōht hām tō mearcunge gemynddæges oþþe sibbe.

Þǣr sind morgenas on ǣrran Iūnium, æfter nihte mistes, þonne se heofon clǣnsaþ and eall, sēo lyft, þā stānenan stæpas, se lāga wyrtūnweall, biþ gebyrst mid þǣre lǣsestan blōsme. Se dæg þyncþ nīwe, and ēaþre. Yrþlingas on Loires dene cweþaþ þæt þās līþan dægrēd behātaþ gōdne wæstm, þonne þæt þe on mildheortnesse biþ ongunnen wile āþolian. Wegfarendas þe on uncuþre byrig āwaciaþ findaþ hīe getogene tō openum ēagþȳrelum, and sceawiaþ wāgrift styrigan mid behāte sumes þinges þe nū is gecoren and uneaþe ongunnen.
