¶ Þe þridde tyme was ihesu þore
Beden to be set to lore
Line 12450
Þe iewes wolde algate þat he
Of her lore shulde lered be
Ioseph & marye wolde not werne
But to þe scole lad him ȝerne
wiþ cherisshynge & talus mylde
Line 12455
But wel wist þei þat þis childe
Miȝt not be lered of mannes lare
Þat al wiþ-inne him self bare
Line 12458

Whenne ihesus coom into þat scole
Line 12459
If he were ȝong he was no fole
Wiþ þe holy goost he was led
A book to him þe maistir bed
þat book spake of mannes lawe
Line 12463

How he vndid þat he fonde þore
And oþere þingis muchel more

And þe welle neuer þe les
And so verrely he tolde

So kyndely goddes werkes telle

honouryng him he fel him vndir

Þou brouȝtest not a childe to lern
But maistir is he al ful perfite
