They conseyvyd this sotylté,

Yf Cryst this woman dede dampne trewly,

Ageyn his prechyng than dede he,

Whiche was of peté and of mercy;

And yf he dede here save,

Than were he aȝens Moyses lawe,

That byddyth with stonys she xulde be slawe,

Thus they thowth undyr ther awe

Cryst Jhesu ffor to have.
