þe mon þat ys on lyue,
he may hit here & see,
þat world shal al to dryue,
stones breke on þre."
"þe furste day shal springe
Line 105
ase blod a red deu,
þat al þis world shal sprede,
by nymen gomen & gleu;
þe grene tren shule blede,
þat crist him self seu;
Line 110
Wel his him þenne, [his = is.]
þat haþ be god & treu!"
"þe oþer day shal fur brenne
al þat hit for stondes; [al þat hit for stondes ("alles, was ihm im Wege steht"); ms. al þat hire fore stond; ebenso liest das Original "wond" in v. 116; wondes und stondes sind mittelländische Formen.]
ne may hit no water quenche,
Line 115
ne nout þat hit for wondes; [þat hit for wondes ("was es (Objekt) jetzt verwundet", d. i. tödtet, löscht), ms. þat hire fore wond.]
þe world shal al o fure ben,
ant þese brode londes;
þenne shal oure louerd sayen:
"suche aren myne sondes."
Line 120
"þe þridde day shal flowe a flod
þat al þis world shal hyle; [hyle, ms. hylen.]
boþe heye & lowe,
þe flume shal hit swyle; [flume, W. flunie; der Punkt über dem dritten Grundstrich von m im ms. scheint ohne Bedeutung zu sein, da ein schräg aufsteigender Strich den i-Punkt vertritt; vgl. auch "Christi Höllenfahrt", 204.]
herre þen eny hul,
Line 125
opo þe herþe a myle;
Wel ys him þat ys trewe
al þat ilke while."
