In the watyr of flom Jordone,

With which devys, as we best may,

The Holy Gost xal ovyr hym on,

The ffaderes voys xal be herd that day,

Out of hevyn that blisful trone,

The fadyr xal be herd, this is no nay,

And forth with pleyn.

The Holy Gost xal be hys gyde

Into desert therin to abyde,

Xl.ᵗⁱ days a terme ful wyde,
