Thai past on the pale se, puld vp hor sailes, 125

Hadyn bir at þere backe, and the bonke leuyt.

Foure dayes bydene, and hor du nyghtis,

Ful soundly þai sailed with seasonable windes.

The fyft day fuersly fell at the none,

Sodonly the softe winde vnsoberly blew; 130

A myste and a merkenes myngit togedur;

A thoner and a thicke rayne þrublet in the skewes,

With an ugsom noise, noy for to here;

All flasshet in a fire the firmament ouer;
