Plegestre is on middan, ac tōdæg fēhþ hire fōt on þām fnæde, and se wrǣdbēag, āmǣnd tō belūcanne on sige, wunaþ tōsundrod. Se cnotta is healf gebunden, þæt spell nēah gesæd, ac nā fullīce. Andlang þǣre ecge bīdaþ cūþe anlīcnessa, ungewisse, and waciaþ æfter þām stæpe þe þone hring belūcþ.

On þissum mearcum bringþ se morgen dēore, nā full sunne, ne eall wolcn. Hit siteþ ofer geteldum, ofer stabelum līnes, ofer līnenum scēafum þe be cempan tōlum hangaþ. Ealle sind geworht of trumum þrǣde, clāþe sēcendra and sceawera, þāra þe wuniaþ on ecge burga oþþe ūtsetla, and bīdaþ wordes þæt tīd sīe forþ tō farenne. Se clāþ, rūh on þǣre handa, gemyngaþ his weriend þæt frōfor nis se intinga hēr. Þurhwunung is.

On spellum þe ymb fȳr campstōwe sind gesæd, wexaþ spell of þissum landscipum: sceaweres sciccels þe mid dūste mængeþ þā hwīle þe hē on dægrēd fordwīnþ, mearceres bōc bewunden on sparan lappe clāþes tō healdanne ūt wind and greot. Þū gehīerst be wegfarende þe, þā hwīle þe hē þā nīehstan ēa ofergān ne mihte, sitt on nīþum stāne and bint and unbint læppan þisses clāþes, and wacaþ þone rīm æfter tācne þe nǣfre fullīce cymþ. Þis healfgedōne færeld wierþ lār geþyldes, cræft tō bīdienne būtan biternesse.
Ecge þǣre worulde nis nā īdel. Sǣd slāpaþ under þǣre molde, and bīdaþ þǣre seldan tīde þonne rēn cymþ, and þā stelas ārīsaþ. Þā hwīle biþ þæt landscip gescapen mid stillre þurhwununge.
