Stond Wel, Moder, Ounder Rode
" Stond wel, moder, ounder rode,
Bihold þi child wiþ glade mode,

" Sone, hou may Ich bliþe stonde?
Ich se þine fet and þine honde
Inayled to þe harde tre.
" Moder, do wey þi wepinge;
Ich þolie deþ for monnes kuinde,
Wor mine gultes ne þolie I non.
" Sone, Ich fele þe deþes stounde:

" Moder, do wei þine teres,

Hy doþ me worse þene my deþ.
" Sone, hou migtte Ich teres werne?
I se þine blodi woundes herne
From þin herte to þi fot.
" Moder, nou I may þe seye,
Betere is þat Ich one deye
þen all monkun to helle go.
" Sone, I se þi body iswonge,

" Moder, if Ich þe dourste telle,
If Ich ne deye þou gost to helle:

" Sone, þu me bihest so milde,
Icomen hit is of monnes kuinde

" Moder, merci, let me deye,
For Adam out of helle beye,
And monkun þat is forlore.
" Sone, wat sal me to stounde?

Let me dey þe bifore."
" Swete moder, nou þou fondest
Of mi pine þer þou stondest;
Wiþhoute mi pine nere no mon.
" Sone, I wot, I may þe telle,
Bote hit be þe pine of helle,
Of more pine ne wot I non."
" Moder, of moder þus I fare
Nou þou wost wimmanes kare;

" Sone, þou helpest alle nede
Alle þo þat to þe wille grede,

" Moder, I ne may no lengore dwelle.

" Sone, iwis I wille founde,

So serwful deþ nes never non."
