Þæs Drȳs bēod on wyrtūne is gesett mid fēower þingum: smælum stæfe, calice, ecge, and scīnendum disce. Ǣlc tōl is duru betwēonan geþōhte and andwiste. Bufan his hēafde scimerþ hringed tācn, and his fingræcg ætīewþ of openre lyfte tō underscotenum grunde, and tēah orþ heofones niþer betwēonan wyrtruman.

On grafe on sūþecge þǣre Middelsǣ stillodon cēapmenn ǣr tō restenne, heora windlas brimfulle wæstmes feorra landa.
