Wharfore we haue þis dole ilkdele."
Scho praied adam on þis manere,
"Lord lat me haue þi sorow sere,
Line 104
For sertes I did all þe syn [folio 77:2]
Wharfore þou es þir angers in."
Þan adam answerd hir vntill,
"It may noght be wroght at oure will,
Line 108
Oure lord of heuyn þat has it send
Thurgh his might he may it mend."
Adam þan vnto seth gan say:
"Sun of a thing I sal þe pray,
Line 112
Forto wend als I sall þe wys
Vnto þe ȝates of paradis,
And at þe ȝates, when þou cumes right,
Þou sal mak sorow in goddes sight;
Line 116
Fall to erth and powder þe,
And pray god haue mercy on me,
For þan par auenture send sall he
Sum of his angels to þat tre,
Line 120
Of whi[l]k springes þe oile of life,
Þat medcyn es to man and wife,
Þar forto send me sum dele,
Þan hope I þat my care sal kele."
Line 124
Þan answerd seth and said in hy,
"To do þi will I am redy,
Bot þe bus teche to me þe way,
And what I sall to þe angell say."
Line 128
Adam said, "sun tell him till
How þat I haue angers ill,
And tell him also of þis thing
How þat my life es nere ending;
Line 132
And pray him me to certify
Of þe oile of mercy weterly,
Þe whilk god hight me of his grace,
When he me put out of þat place;
Line 136
