And the fox, that lither grome,

With the wolf, i-wreiid was;

To-for har lord hi schold come,

To amend har trepas.

And so men didde that seli asse,

That trepasid noȝt, no did no gilte,

With ham bothe i-wreiid was,

And in the ditement was i-pilt.

The voxe hird amang al menne,

And told the wolf with the brode crune;
