Qui dat niuem sicut lanam: nebulam sicut cinerem spargit. ¶ That gifis snaw as woul; kloude as aske he strewis. ¶ As snaw fresis abouen and fallis bi nethe; swa when luf kelis in a man. mannys kynde fallis in til the erth. and lappid in slaw body. it is made as snaw. bot in this snaw ere sum that god has ordaynd til endles hele. the whilke ere as woul. of whaim he will do smuth thynge. for woule is matere of clathynge. and of thaim, thof thai be ȝit kald. cristis kirtil sall be made, withouten spot and snorkil. for thaim that sumtyme ware kald [S cleped.] , he makis thaim ful brennand in luf, and swa the snaw he gifis as woul. when he makis him lufers of synful men. Aske is meknes of him that dos penaunce. kloude is myrknes of syn & vnknawynge. than he strewis kloude as aske. when he fordos myrknes of syn thorgh meknes and penaunce.
