Feast of the Purification

via

Haill, floscampy and flower vyrgynall,
The odour of thy goodnes reflars to vs all.
Haill, moost happy to great and to small,
For our weyll.
Haill, ryall roose, moost ruddy of hewe,
Haill, flour vnfadyng, both freshe ay and newe,
Haill, the kyndest in comforth that ever man knewe,
For grete heyll.

Harke, Mary, I shall tell þe truth or I goo.

This was putt here to welde vs fro [wo],
In redempcion of many and recover also,
I the say.
And the sworde of sorro thy hart shal thyrll,
Whan thowe shall se sothly thy son soffer yll
For the well of all wrytches, þat shall be his wyll
Here in fay.
