- Ne forstolen ne forholen nanuht, þæs ðe ic age,
- þe ma ðe mihte Herod urne drihten.
- Ic geþohte sancte Eadelenan
- and ic geþohte Crist on rode ahangen;
- swa ic þence þis feoh to findanne, næs to oðfeorrganne,
- and to witanne, næs to oðwyrceanne,
- and to lufianne, næs to oðlædanne.
- Garmund, godes ðegen,
- find þæt feoh and fere þæt feoh
- and hafa þæt feoh and heald þæt feoh
- and fere ham þæt feoh.
- þæt he næfre næbbe
landes, þæt he hit
oðlæde,
- ne foldan, þæt hit oðferie,
- ne husa, þæt he hit oðhealde.
- Gif hyt hwa gedo, ne gedige hit him næfre!
- Binnan þrym nihtum cunne ic his mihta,
- his mægen and his mihta and his mundcræftas.
- Eall he weornige, swa syre wudu weornie,
- swa breðel seo swa þystel,
- se ðe ðis feoh oðfergean þence
- oððe ðis orf
oðehtian ðence. Amen.
