As thou art of mercy and pyte the well,

Thou bring unto thy joye eterminable

The soull of this lorde from all daunger of hell, 200

In endles blys with thé to byde and dwell

In thy palace aboue the orient,

Where thou art Lord and God omnipotent.

O quene of mercy, O lady full of grace,

Mayden most pure, and Goddes moder dere,

To sorowful hartes chef comfort and solace,

Of all women O flowre withouten[208] pere!
