And now I take upon myself the adventures of holy things / And now I see and understand that my old sin hinders me and shames me / so that I had no power to steer nor speak when the holy blood appeared afore me / So thus he sorrowed till it was day / and heard the fowls sing / then somewhat he was comforted
