God xal enforme the and rewle the ful ryght,

Of berd and of beste take, as I the tolde,

A peyr into the shypp, and God xal the qwyght.

Noe. I am ful redy as God doth me bydde,

A shypp for to make be myght of his grace,

Alas! that ffor synne it xal so be betydde,

That vengeauns of flood xal werke this manase.

God is sore grevyd with oure grett tresspas,

That with wylde watyr the werd xal be dreynt;

A shyppe for to make now lete us hens pas,
