EYA JHC HODIE NATUS EST DE VIRGINE.
Blyssid be yt mayde mary,
born he was of her body,
godis sone yt syttit on hy,
nõ ex uirili semine.
In a manjor of an as
Jhu lay & lullyd was,
harde peynis for to pas,
ꝑ peccante homine.
Kyngs comỹ fro dyvesse londe,
Wt grete zyfts in þer honde,
In bedlem ye child yey fonde,
Stella ducte lumīe.
Man & chyld bothe eld & ying
Now in his blysful comyng,
to yt chyld now we syng
gɫa t' dñe.
Nowel, nowel, in yis halle,
Make merye I prey zu alle,
On to yt chyld may we calle,
ullo sine crimine.
