_ _Servus est divitiis._
Thu were theow. Thou wert slave
thines weolan. to thy wealth,
noldest thu nouht. 155 nor wouldst thou ought
thaerof d_aelen_. thereof distribute
for Drihtenes willaen. for God's pleasure;
ac aefre thu graediliche, but thou ever greedily
gaederdest the more. didst gather the more.
lu_ther_liche eart thu forloren. 160 Miserably art thou separated
from al that thu lufedest. from all that thou lovedst,
and ic scal wraecche soule. and I, wretched soul, shall
_ece_ we nu driaen. now suffer everlasting woe.
eart thu nu loth and unwurth. Thou art now loathsome and contemptible
alle thine freonden. 165 to all thy friends.
nu ha_m thun_cheth alto long. Now they think it all too long
that thu ham neih list. that thou liest nigh them,
aer thu beo ibrouht. ere thou be brought
thaer thu be_grafen_ scalt. where thou shalt be buried
on deope saethe. 170 in a deep pit,
on durelease huse. in a doorless house,
thaer wurmes waeldeth. where worms possess
al_le that_ wurthest was.
