Secundus Pastor. Amos spak with mylde methe,
A frute swettere than bawmys brethe,
His dethe xulde slen owre sowlys dethe,
And drawe us alle from helle.

In tokyn that the childe is born,
Whiche xal save that is forlorn,—
As prophetys gonne spelle.
Tertius pastor. Danyel the prophete thus gan speke,
Wyse God from woo us wreke,
