þis messagers þoȝte scorn of him ; as gernigs wollþ wylde
⁊ ȝeue him hoker ansuere ; for he þoȝte hem pore ⁊ mylde

So þat hi were vpe þe peroynte ; forte drenche echon

We misansuerede þe gode man ; þat spac wiþ ous alonde
For he is holi man ⁊ god ; ⁊ grete cangeornis we beoþ
Bidde we him anon forȝeuenisse ; þe while we him iseoþ
¶ Hi ?de anon to seint Aldelm ; in god entente ynouȝ

And sippe wende forþ to Rome ; ⁊ deore þane wey abouȝte
At þo seint Aldelm bischop was ; he amansede alle þo

To bynyme hem eni priuilege ; þat he hem wan at Rome
Ich rede þat King ⁊ bischop ; þerof take gome
Non bidde we ȝurne seint Aldelm ; oure erand bere so
