Hic incipit de suscitatione Laȝari.
Laȝarus. God, that alle thynge dede make of nowth,
And puttyst eche creature to his fenaunce,
Save thyn handwerke that thou hast wrought,
As thou art lord of hiȝ substauns!
O, gracyous God! att thi plesauns,
Of my dysese now comforte me,
Whiche thorowe syknes hath suche penawnce,
On ethys ffor heed-ache may I now se.
