Marie þis iheorde: and þarof was ful glad; A smeorieles to greiþi,: þar to he was ful rad; Heo wende to Symundes hous,: þat no man hire ne bad, To ore louerd Jesu Crist;: and ful sore heo was of drad, For þat he was so sunful,: bi fore ore louerd to come; Careful heo was and sore a ferd: forto beon inome. Heo ne dorste ore louerd repie nouȝht: bi hinde ne bi fore, Ne no Man hire nolde cleopie,: and þat hire grefde sore. þo ore louerd was isete: in Symundes house þere And his Apostles to þe mete,: þat with him þo were, Ore louerd sat and þouȝhte muche,: ake bote luyte he ne eet. Marie, þat was so sunful,: heo crep doun to is fiet, Heo custe is fiet and wusch also: with hire wete teres, And wipede heom aftur ward: with hire ȝeoluwe heres; Out of hire boxe heo nam: Oynement ful guod, And smeorede ore louerdes heued: with ful blisful mod. Judas was þare bi side and smulde hit,: and þare fore he was neiȝh wod, þat swote smul him culde neiȝh: and gremede is sorie blod, And bad don up þat riche þing: þat heo ore louerd gan with smeore; To spene it so in wasting,: he seide, it was gret lure; And seide: it mai beon isold ful deore,: to bugge with muchel mete, Pouere Men þare with to freueri: to drinke an to ete. þo saide ore louerd to Judas:: lat þou þis wumman beo! Ful guod weork it was and is: þat heo wurchez in me; For ai schulle ȝe pouere with eov habbe,: and so ne worth eov me; þi toungue moste bien ischaue,: to speche heo is to freo.

Dann folgt in der Legende noch weiter (vgl. Luc. 39-50): Symund leprous iheorde þis;: he þouȝhte wel mani fold: þat, ȝif þes profete were al so wys: ase he is fore itold, He nolde soffri þis fole wumman: his bodi enes to reppe, For no weork þat heo can do: to ward him enes steppe. Ore louerd wuste is luþere þouȝht,: ake þarof stod him non eyȝe; Symund, þou þenchest muche for nouȝht;: sum þing ichulle þe seiȝe. Maister, seye! seide Symound,: ich it bidde þe, For þou noldest for no þing: segge on riȝht to me. An vsurer was ȝwilene: þat hadde dettores tweyne, þat swyþe longue ȝwyle: dette him scholden beyne; þat on him scholde fifti panes: and twenti þar to, þat oþur him scholde of dette: fifti panewes al so; And noþur of heom nadde: ȝware of þe dette forto ȝelde. Huy ȝolden þo he it creuede,: ase þe bok us telde. ȝweþur of heom tweine: cudde him more loue þo? Maister, he þat more ȝaf,: me þinche, so mote igo. For soþe, Symund leperous,: þou hauest idemed a riȝht: For, sethþe ich cam into þin hous,: þou me custest me no wiȝht, Ne þou ne wusche nouȝt mine fiet: with watur ne with teres, Ne þou ne wypedest heom nouȝht ȝuyt: with cloþe ne (Ms. no) with heres, Min heued on none halue: with no manere Oynement Ne smeredest with none salue,: ne with no piement. Sethþe ich cam in to þin hous,: þis wumman nolde blinne Mine fiet to wasche and cusse: with outen and with inne, And to wipen heom sethþe aftur ward: with hire faire here, Min heued also to smeorien: with riche Oynement and dere. Op a ris þou, wumman!: þine sunnes þe beoth for ȝyue; Al so ich nouþe can and may,: of me þou art ischriue.

Es ist also in der Legende eine Vermischung zweier verschiedener Erzählungen (Luc. 7, 37 ff. und Joh. 12, 1) eingetreten.

 þare ase he Lazare a rerde,: bi side Bethanie. Symound leprous was a man: þat Musel hadde ibeo longe, Ake ore louerd him hadde iheld bi fore: of is vueles þat weren stronge. Jn is hous ore louerd lefde ate mete,: and is desciples also, And Lazar þat he to liue brouȝte,: and is sostrene two.

Of eche þinge atþe laste: Jvdas wolde stele; A schewe he was al is lijf;: ȝwat helpeth lengore (to hele)?V. 776 Ms. schewe st. schrewe; vgl. V. 896. V. 776 hinter ȝwat helpeth lengore ist der Schluss des Verses, das Reimwort zu stele, dem Schreiber in der Feder geblieben; zu ergänzen ist to hele. þo ore louerd was ismeored with þat oygnement: þat Marie hadde ibore: ȝwat, seide Judas, schal þis ido: swuch guod þing beon for lore?In V. 778 im 2. Gliede scheint schal, oder and, oder þat zu fehlen; oder ist do hier faktitiv? vgl. Marc. 14, 4: Ut quid perditio ista unguenti facta est? For þre houndret panes man miȝte it sulle: and to pouere men it ȝiue, þanne nere it nouȝt þus for lore,: ȝif it holpe to hore bi liue. V. 780 bi liue living, sustinance; vgl. Rob. Gl. 496, 8.

His desciples wenden and founden þat colt,: þo heo it hadde isouȝt. Ase heo it onteiden, þe Maister heom axede,: ȝwat heo wol∣den þare with so sone. And heo seiden þat heore Maister: þare with hadde to done. He grauntede heom þo al sauueliche: to lede it forth wel faste. In heore hond heo ladden it forth,: and cloþus þare upe heo caste, An sethþe on ouewarde heo setten ore louerd;: mildeliche he it bistrod; Toward is deþe, ase he wel wuste,: to is fo men he rod, þat hadden him suyþe wide isouȝt: and ne miȝten him finde nouȝt.

Eft sone ichulle on eorþe come: at þe daie of dome,V. 823-28. Diese, die Vorzeichen des jüngsten Gerichts in sehr fragmentarischer Weise (nach Math. 24, 6, Marc. 13,7, Luc. 21, 9-12) be∣handelnden Verse stehen ausser Verbindung mit dem Vorhergehenden und lassen die Fortsetzung vermissen. Christus spricht diese Worte nicht beim Einzug in Jerusalem, sondern erst später, vom Ölberg herab, dem Tem∣pel zugewandt, dessen Zerstörung er jüngst vorhergesagt hatte. Die Verse stehen also nicht wohl am Platze. Hingegen schliessen sich die Verse 829-38, nach Luc. 19, 41 ff., an den Einzug in Jerusalem an. Wel grislich bi tokninge men schullen iseo: þare aȝein ilome In sonne, and Mone, and steorrene also,: and eorþegreoue Men schulle ise, Hongur, fiȝtinge, and tricherie: among Men muche schal beo, And lasse loue þane euere was;: and ȝwane ȝe iseoth al ȝis, Witez wel þat domes day: ne cometh nouȝt anon iwis.V. 828 vgl. Luc. 21, 9: Cum autem audieritis praelia et seditiones, nolite terrere; oportet enim primum haec fieri, sed nondum statim finis. Ore louerd, þo he cam to Jerusalem,: he stod and bi heold a boute; He bi heold þe cite þat was so fair,: þe boldes þat weren so proute. He bi þouȝte him, and bi gan to siche,: and weop sore with alle, And seide: Jerusalem, ȝif þou wustest: ȝwat þe schal bi falle, þov woldest also weope sore!: for þou art nouþe ibrouȝt In alle Joye and in gret pouwer,: ake þe ende nost þou nouȝt; For þine fon þe schullen bi legge: and þe wel narewe driue, And to grounde bringe atþe laste,: and þine children bringe of liue; þare ne schal a ston op oþur bi leue,: þat ne worth a doun iþrowe; For þou nelt nouȝt þine tyme: of þine sauuinge iknowe. Bi Tytus and Vaspasian: ore louerd seide al þis, þat Jerusalem to grounde brouȝte: and destruyden sethþe iwis. Ore louerd was þo ful sore afingred;: to þe temple he gan gon,V. 841-50 vgl. Math. 21, 20. 21, Marc. 11, 13. 14. A figer he fond faire ileued,: ake fruyt ne bar heo non. Nou ne wexe þare no þing: neuerefft, figer, of þe, For þov noldest nouþe In mine neode: no fruyt bere to helpe me! þe figer felde a non is lef,: þo he hadde þis ibede, And fur weolewede ase a stok,: þare ne bi lefde nouȝt a grene stude. His desciples, þo heo þis iseie, gret wonder hadden with alle, ȝif ȝe weren of studefaste bileue, ore louerd seide,: so it scholde ou falle, Treon ne scholden nouȝt one eov a bouwie,: ac, ȝif þat ȝe hote wolden Hulles to fallen In þe se,: a non riȝtes heo scholden.

Chap Men stondinde and sullen orf,: hore lijflode forto winne, Schep and reþren, and coluerene eke,: and Muneteres also, þat oncouþe Men miȝten moneie finde: heore offringe forto do.

Joh. 2, 20: dixerunt ergo Judaei: Quadraginta et sex annis aedificatum est templum hoc, et tu in tribus diebus excita∣bis illud?—Auch die Verse 873-85 stehen ausser Zusammenhang mit dem Vorhergehenden; sie entsprechen in fragmentarischer Weise Joh. 7, 10-26; vgl. Joh. 7, 10: Ut autem ascenderunt fratres ejus, tunc et ipse ascendit; 11. Judaei autem quaerebant eum in die festo et dicebant ubi est ille? 12. Et murmur multum erat in turba de eo; quidam enim dice∣bant: quia bonus est; alii autem dicebant: non, sed seducit turbas. 13. Nemo tamen palam loquebatur de illo propter metum Judaeorum. 14. Jam autem die festo mediante ascendit Jesus templum et docebat; 15. Et mirabantur Judaei dicentes: Quomodo hic litteras scit, cum non didi∣cerit? Respondit eis Jesus et dixit: Mea doctrina non est mea, sed ejus qui misit me. ȝwam þenchez him sulue make: þat so sone as wolde a rere! Some seiden þat he was gylour strong,: some þat he was guod. þo gan ore louerd prechi of clergie: and hardeliche forth stod: Mi clergie ne cometh nouȝt of me, ore louerd seide,: ac of him þat me hidere sende.
