I am life and way unto salvation winning;
I am foremost and first; as I bid shall it be.
My blessing of face shall be blinding,
And descending from harm to be hiding,
My body in bliss ever abiding,
Unending without any ending.”
“I am gracyus and grete, God without you begynning;
I am maker unmade, all mighte es in me;
I am lyfe and way unto welth wynnyng;
I am foremaste and fyrste, als I bid sall it be.
