Euen iust the sum that I do owe to you, / Is growing to me by Antipholus, / And in the instant that I met with you, / Не had of me a Chaine, at fiue a clocke / I shall receiue the money for the same:[…]
Charitie suffereth long, and is kinde: charitie enuieth not: charitie vaunteth not it selfe, is not puffed vp, / Doeth not behaue it selfe vnseemly, seeketh not her owne, is not easily prouoked, thinketh no euill, / Reioyceth not in iniquitie, but reioyceth in the trueth: / Beareth all things, beleeueth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Amal nád n-airigther ⁊ nád fintar a ndu·gníther hi suidi, sic ba in ḟortgidiu ⁊ ba hi temul du·gníth Saul cona muntair intleda ⁊ erelca fri Dauid.
