Hefig hwēol, āgrafen mid ealdum tācnum, sitt heardlīce on his grāfe. On þǣre stillan anbīdunge ǣr þǣre nīehstan hweorfunge rǣcþ hand ūt, hȳd þrīcende mid wȳsce tō ætstentenne þæt þe cuman wile. Þā ealdan wyrda lōciaþ niþer, heora ēagan gefangene on þiccum, fellum fealdum wrigeles þe ecga þǣre scēne līnaþ. Þes wrigels gebyraþ farendum scōflēode, gewērod mid dūste and spellum, his clāþ þurhgoten mid gēarum āgotenes wīnes and spātlodes blōdes. Hweorfung wyrde biþ ætstent āne orþunge. Mægen ætstent on dimmum þēostre betwēonan þām þe wæs and þām þe bēon mihte.
Under þām hwēole is sēo eorþe heard. On westan Indēum, on ēalande mid stormum gedolodum, timbraþ ān flīema hām of þām þe hē findan mæg. Sēo molde is welig, ac þā coddas clifiende tō þornum bōgum sēcþ hē, bēana gescapene swā sicolmōnan, heora innoþ scearp mid tang. Þās coddas, on ōþerre stōwe, mihton bēon gebrocen swā lāc, tōslegene and āwæscene on rume, tōstencede ǣr winde on hyhte tō stēorenne wyrd. Hēr þēah bēoþ hīe gegrundene mid mortere and pilstæfe, gemengede on smierwe þe handa and weolas þāra mearcaþ þe hit birgaþ. Biter mete, hefig on þǣre tungan. Tō etanne hine is lȳtel wiþsacung, hand ūt gesett tō slāwenne niþergang þǣre worulde.
Se sǣ drȳcþ nēah. Stormas ārīsaþ fǣrlīce, weorppende heora hefignesse wiþ þone strand. Se heofon fylþ mid wolcnum swā þiccum þæt hīe þyncaþ hrīnan hrofas þāra hūsa. Rēn fealleþ ierre and heard, lǣfende strīcan on scyttelsum, gaderiende on nearwum rennþēam ealdra hyþtūna. Þonne þā stormas forgāþ, is se lyft þicce, nēah swā se fellen wrigels on þām getelde. Þā þe on þissum stōwum wuniaþ cnottiaþ læppan gedēagodes clāþes æt heora midlum, gebregdene on beltum, geworene swā mearc: ǣr mǣnde þis frēodōm, wiþerword, and wiþsacung tō bēonne āspunnen mid mægne þæs hwēoles. Se clāþ is stearc, mid handa geweofen, and stincþ wyrtum and dūste.
On sceadiglīcum lēohte gladaþ hwā cest on sprǣchūse. Se wudu is þurhgoten mid stence ǣfenes, deorc and glisniende under heora carfullan hrinenesse. Innan gāþ ealde mynet ūt, geclumode mid gemynde cēapes of feorrum landum, mynet þe ǣr ēodon of folme tō folme for wād, for tobacce, for þām coddum þe mearciaþ. On þǣre cycene wealleþ ōþer mann þā sǣd on lȳtlum croccan, lǣtende þone swæcc dēopian. Se swæcc is īsenlic, nēah lācnung, and hē wunaþ lange æfter þām þe se mēl gedōn is, swā hē þæt gefarene tō þām andweardan mid unbrocenum þrǣde binde.
Gif þū wille þās styrenessa tōdæg edlǣcan, meaht þū cōcian mid coddum oþþe bēanum þe þæt gefarene gemunaþ, and lætan heora stenc þīn hūs fyllan. Þū meaht belt ymb þīne midle cnottian, þēah hit āne hwīle sīe, oþþe wudenne lāf gladian mid slāwre, endebyrdlicre cearu. Þū meaht sǣd on hātum wætere weallan, birgende þā biternesse, gemunende geþyld þāra þe anbīdunge on hweorfunge þǣre worulde drȳcdon, stille healdende on ēagan stormes wyrde.
