Þæt micla hwēol on middan þǣre cartan stent hweorfende, spācan ofercrēopende mid endebyrdnesse tīdmēles, ūp tēonde þæt þe under wæs and niþer lǣtende þæt þe ufan wæs. Hit is eax tīda, þǣr ānnes dæges gewisnes wierþ ōþres wundor, and þā ilcan andwlitan ætīewaþ and āfeallaþ, āna tō eftcumanne mid ōþrum andwlite. Ymb þæt hwēol is ā styrenes: ymbhwyrft wyrde, ryne þe ne ætstent. Sēo ealde anlīcnes þæs hwēoles hæfþ edlāc on ūpgange þǣre sunnan ofer feldum and on hweorfunge hærfestcweorna on hærfeste, þonne corn biþ āwealcen and āwindwod mid handum þe hweorfunge ongietaþ ǣgþer swā giefe and swā costnunge.

Behāt þǣre cartan nis nā stilnes, ac hweorfung, wendung of þām þe gewesene is tō þām þe bēon mæg. Þā ealdan spell sprecaþ be cræte gehladenum mid līmonum, yrnendum þurh lānum þæs Wendelsǣs, heora rinda ālǣtende scearpne stenc þe þone lyft beorhtaþ. On norþernum tūne glōwaþ cycene mid lēohte ānes bēonweaxcandeles, þā hwīle þe se ǣfenmēl mid hleahtre and mid ānfaldum hlāfe biþ gedǣled. Ǣgþer se wæstm and sēo līeg sind tācnu wendunge: se wæstm gerīpod of blōstme tō fullnesse, se candel meltende mid ǣlcre tīde, mearciende tīd þā hwīle þe hēo wendeþ.

On heortan lāre þæs hwēoles is gelimplicnes. Se wegfarend on wēstene sēcþ dæl sunfblōstmena: hēage, heardlīce wexende tō þām lēohte, heora andwlitan hweorfende mid þām dæge. Feorr ēast bundon cēapmenn wrǣda of seolcwyrmes coccum ymb scēafas turmerices, se wyrt gemarciende heora fingras, gemynd þæt cēap and gelimp mid winde styriaþ, and þæt þe tōdæg seld is tō mergen gewunelic bēon mæg. Andlang ēaofores scēotaþ dæffodilas þǣr snāw wintres nū onweg gān is, heora bȳman bodiende þā ǣrestan hweorfunge þæs gēares tō warmþe. On ealdum burgum fyllaþ ceapbēodas mid saffranþrǣdum and mid fatum huniges, ǣlc hord gegaderod þurh geþyld and carfull weorc, lāc swā hwæþer weg swā þæt hwēol hwerfþ.

Se weder ēac fealleþ under rīce þǣre cartan. Sind dagas þonne þæt lēoht swā clǣne and riht fealleþ þæt hit þyncþ swā sēo woruld of sceadwe āþwogen sīe. Þās sind þā morgenas þonne se lyft drȳge is, and feld rīpendes mēzes mēþe hræstlaþ on þām winde, ǣlc stela stillu gemyndweorc gōdes gelimpes. On muntdenum mearcaþ fǣrlic ūpgang lēonfōta æfter lenctenrēne edcier mægnes, heora sinewealtan hēafdu boren mid cildum swā tācnu tō wȳscum. Cræftas and cēapas þǣre worulde edlǣcaþ þone ymbhwyrft. Dēagwyrhtan fatu weollon ǣr on safflower blēdum, se glæswyrhta scieppende bēagas þe þā sunnan fōþ, se bæcere smiriende rinde mid ǣge tō giefenne hire scīnendne ende, swā hē gelimp on ǣlcne hlāf lāþige.

Tōdæg biþ wyrd gemēt on lȳtlum, gīmenfullum dǣdum. Þū meaht līmon āscieran, and lætan his stenc rūm fyllan swā weg tō underfōnne hweorfunge, oþþe bēonweaxcandel on ǣfen ontendan, lāþiende his truman glēd tō mearcenne nīwe anginn. Ber sunfblōstman, oþþe sete ānne on þīnum bēode, swā hnīgung tō trumnesse þurh ungewisnesse. Birg hunig oþþe turmerice on þīnum tēa, ārende þā handa and tīda þe hīe tō þē brōhton, and gemun þæt hweorfung þæs hwēoles nis nā wyrd āna, ac weorc dæghwāmlicra cēosa.
