Se Drȳ

Ān bēod stent gearu, mid gierde, calice, sweorde, and mynete, and ǣlc is tōl þissum dæge. Se Drȳ ætīewþ āne hand tō heofone and ōþre tō eorþan, and his willa gǣþ intō weorce.

Nān þing ne cymþ of nāhte. Þæt þe ufan cymþ, þæt biþ geworht of þām þe on þǣre handa līþ. Word, gebeacnu, tōl, and andweorc mētaþ on þissum bēode.

Tōdæg sette þæt þe þū hæfst on ānne weg. Þū ne sciepst woruld nīwe. Þū setst þæt þe þū gaderodest, and hit biþ sōþ.

Þā tōl on þǣm bēode sind gesett tō sceawunge, nā tō weorce. Þā handa styriaþ, and se weg betwēonan heofone and eorþan is forloren. Þā word yrnaþ beforan, and þæt andweorc wunaþ æfter.

Onwend, se cræft gǣþ fram þǣm willan. Sēo anlīcnes weorces mæg standan for þǣm weorce selfum. Þæt þe biþ ongunnen, þæt wunaþ ungefylled.

Tōdæg nīm ān tōl, and wend hit tō ānum weorce. Ne gadera mā. Gehæft eft þone willan tō þǣre dǣde.
