Mary’s Song
And Mary sayde. My soule magnifieth the lorde. And my sprete reioyseth in god my savioure, For he hath loked on the povre degre off his hondemayden. Beholde nowe from hensforth shall all generacions call me blessed. For he that is myghty hath done to me greate thinges, and blessed ys his name: And hys mercy is always on them that feare him thorowoute all gencracions. He hath shewed strengthe with his arme, he hath scattered them that are proude in the ymmaginacion of their hertes. He hath putt Donne the myghty from their seates, and hath exalted them of lowe degre. He hath filled the hongry with goode thinges: And hath sent awaye the ryche empty. He hath remembred mercy: and hath holpen his servaunt Israhel. Even as he promised to oure fathers, Abraham and to his seede forever. And mary aboode with her iij. monethes, And retourned home agayne.
