On þǣre cartan wyrtūne standaþ twēgen līchaman under bōgiendum limum and underscotenum heofone, heora handa gȳt ungefēgede ac rǣcende. Sēo lyft styreþ þurh lēaf and ofer heora hȳd, and berþ stenc ǣrres sumeres, and hefignesse cēose. On þǣre tīde nis nān ofst, ac sēo slāwe ontȳning gīemenne þā hwīle þe þisse worulde gewuna fægernes drīfþ nēah. Se wyrtūn mynegaþ þā ealdan racan, þǣr twēgen menn mētaþ ymbsette mid blēdum and mid mihte, and sēo mearc betwēonan heora līfum biþ āþynnod þurh heora willan tō cēosenne ǣlc ōþerne and tō stæppenne ūt on þæt māra uncuþe.

Betwēonan wyrtruman and hangendum bōgum bīegaþ heapas smēþra blōstmena niþerweard, āhangene swā ācsunga on lyfte.

On feorrum īeglandum drēah man þā blēda on brydcynehelmum, and heora stences behāt rīpode on hæte.

On cycenum tōdǣlþ man smælne codd mid seaxe, and ālīeseþ gemynd swētnesse on þā lyft.

On hūsbīgelsum hangiaþ cynehelmās þissa blōstmena on anlīcnessum and on ēagþȳrelsetlum, behāt fægernesse and lufan geboden swā hwām swā ingān mæge. On þisse worulde wǣtum wudum sēcaþ sume bēon þā blēda, and heora færeld edlæcþ þæt þe menn tōgædere bringþ, getogene þurh stenc, þurh hīw, þurh anbīdunge. Ēac þæt weder dēþ his dǣl. Þǣr sind dagas þonne wǣtnes hangþ hefig, and tyht þā blōstman wīdor tō openienne, oþþe þonne færlic scūr hīe gedrīfþ flate, and mynegaþ ǣlcne sceawere hū brōsne and hū nīedþearflic sēo dǣd cēosannes bēon mæg.
