Him æcræftig andswarode,

"No ic wið feohsceattum ofer folc bere

þu for anmedlan in æht bere
huslfatu halegu, on hand werum.
On þam ge deoflu drincan ongunnon,
ða ær Israela in æ hæfdon
æt godes earce, oðþæt hie gylp beswac,

No þæt þin aldor æfre wolde

Israela gestreon in his æhte geweald,
ac þæt oftor gecwæð aldor ðeoda

siððan him wuldres weard wundor gecyðde,
þæt he wære ana ealra gesceafta

unscyndne blæd eorðan rices,
and þu lignest nu þæt sie lifgende,
se ofer deoflum dugeþum wealdeð."
