| title | 44:1 The title of the foure and fourtithe salm. To the ouercomere for the lilies, the most loued song of lernyng of the sones of Chore. |
| 1 | 44:2 Myn herte hath teld out a good word; Y seie my workis `to the kyng. Mi tunge is `a penne of a writere; writynge swiftli. |
| 2 | 44:3 Crist, thou art fairer in schap than the sones of men; grace is spred abrood in thi lippis; therfor God blessid thee withouten ende. |
| 3 | 44:4 Be thou gird with thi swerd; on thi hipe most myytili. |
| 4 | 44:5 Biholde thou in thi schaplynesse and thi fairnesse; come thou forth with prosperite, and regne thou. For treuthe, and myldenesse, and riytfulnesse; and thi riyt hond schal lede forth thee wondurfuli. |
| 5 | 44:6 Thi scharpe arowis schulen falle in to the hertis of the enemyes of the kyng; puplis schulen be vndur thee. |
| 6 | 44:7 God, thi seete is in to the world of world; the yerde of thi rewme is a yerde of riyt reulyng, `ethir of equite. |
| 7 | 44:8 Thou louedist riytfulnesse, and hatidist wickidnesse; therfor thou, God, thi God, anoyntide thee with the oile of gladnesse, more than thi felowis. |
| 8 | 44:9 Mirre, and gumme, and cassia, of thi clothis, of the `housis yuer; |
| 9 | 44:10 of whiche the douytris of kyngis delitiden thee. A queen stood nyy on thi riyt side in clothing ouergildid; cumpassid with dyuersitee. |
| 10 | 44:11 Douyter, here thou, and se, and bowe doun thin eere; and foryete thi puple, and the hows of thi fadir. |
| 11 | 44:12 And the kyng schal coueyte thi fairnesse; for he is thi Lord God, and thei schulen worschipe hym. |
| 12 | 44:13 And the douytris of Tire in yiftis; alle the riche men of the puple schulen biseche thi cheer. |
| 13 | 44:14 Al the glorye of that douyter of the kyng is with ynne in goldun hemmes; |
| 14 | 44:15 sche is clothid aboute with dyuersitees. Virgyns schulen be brouyt to the kyng aftir hir; hir neiyboressis schulen be brouyt to thee. |
| 15 | 44:16 Thei schulen be brouyt in gladnesse, and ful out ioiyng; thei schulen be brouyt in to the temple of the kyng. |
| 16 | 44:17 Sones ben borun to thee, for thi fadris; thou schalt ordeyne hem princes on al erthe. |
| 17 | 44:18 Lord, thei schulen be myndeful of thi name; in ech generacioun, and in to generacioun. Therfor puplis schulen knouleche to thee withouten ende; and in to the world of world. |
