Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

"Sprungë blostm of onë rootë, þoli gost þee rest upon
 þat was for mankinnes bootë and her soul aleesë for on.
 Levdi mildë, soft and swootë, ich crië merci, ich am þi mon,
 to hondë boþen and to footë on allë wisë þat ich kon."
  -- third verse of the anonymous 13th(?) Century song, "Edi be þu, heven-queenë" (Blessed be thou, queen of heaven) shown in some sources as "Edi beo thu..."

From a translation by E. J. Dobson:
 Blossom sprung from a single root, the Holy Ghost rested upon thee;
 that was for mankind's salvation, and to free their souls in exchange for one.
 Gentle lady, soft and sweet, I beg forgiveness, I am thy man,
 both hand and foot, in every wway that I can be.
