Hic exiet anima Mariæ de corpore in sinu Dei.

Dominus. Now come, my swete soule, in clennesse most pure,
  And reste in my bosom brithtest of ble.
Alle ye myn apostelis of this body takyth cure:
  In the vallé of Josephat there fynde schul ye,
A grave new mad for Maryes sepulture,
  There beryeth the body withe alle youre solempnité,
And bydyth me there stylle thre dayes severe,
  And I schal pere ageyn to yow to comfort your advercyté:
Wyth this swete soule now from you I assende.
Petrus. In oure tribulacyons, Lord, thou us defende!
  We have no comfort on erthe but of the alon.
