That grim ne couþe no god red,

Hw he sholde his meine fede;

Of hauelok hauede he michel drede:

For he was strong, and wel mouthe ete

More þanne heuere mouthe he gete;

They have not enough to eat.

Ne he ne mouthe on þe se take

Neyþer lenge, ne þorn[e]bake,[43]

Ne non oþer fish þat douthe

His meyne feden with he[r][44] mouthe.
