Martha. God graunt grace that it may sese,

Of syknes God make ȝow sownde;

Or ellys oure joy wylle sone dyscres,

In so grett peynes if ȝe ly bownde.

Magdalyn. A! brothir, brothir, lyfte up ȝoure herte,

ȝour hevy cher doth us grevaunce;

If deth from us ȝow xulde departe,

Than were we brought in comberaunce.

ȝe be oure brothyr syb of alyaunce,

If ȝe wore deed, than had we none;
