Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
Who ys there that syngith so nowell, nowell?

Well come, my lord s^r c^ꝛstsmasse,
Welcome to vs all bothe more & lasse,

A mayde hath born a chylde full zong,
The weche causeth zew for to syng,

Criste is now born of a pure mayde,
In an oxe stalle he ys layde,
Wher'for syng we alle atte abrayde,
Nowell.
Bevvex bien par tutte la company,
Make gode chere & be ryght mery,
And syng w^t vs now ioyfully,
Nowell.
