 Biblisc cita 
Biblisc cita (Genesis):The Old English Version of The Heptateuch, Aelfric’s Treatise on the Old and New Testament, and his Preface to Genesis
7. 1. And God cwæð to him: Gang in to ðam arce ⁊ eal ðin hiwræden, ðe ic geseah soðlice rihtwisne ætforan me on þisre mægðe. 2. Nim in to ðe of eallum clænum nytenum seofan ⁊ seofau aegðres gecyndes ⁊ of unclænum twam ⁊ twam. 3. ⁊ of fugelcynne seofan ⁊ seofan ægðres gecyndes, ⁊ sæd si gehealden ofer ealre eorðan bradnysse! 4. Ic soðlice sende ren nu enbe seofan niht ofer eorðan feowertig daga ⁊ feowertig nihta togædere ⁊ ic adylegie ealle ða edwiste, ðe ic worhte ofer eorðan bradnysse. 5. Noe ða dyde ealle ða ðinge ðe him God bebead.  8. 1 ⁊ God ða gemunde Noes fare ⁊ ðæra nytena ðe him mid wæron, ⁊ asende wind ofer eorðan, ⁊ ða wæteru wurdon gewanode. 2. ⁊ ða wylspringa ðært miclan nywelnysse wurdon fordytte ⁊ ðære heofonan wæterðeotan, ⁊ se ren wearð forboden. 18. Noe ða ut eode of ðan arce, ⁊ hi ealle ofer eorðan.

 Sōþfæstnes be ðære niwan wīsdome 
Þēos saga is folces fantasiġ and myþ, nā sōþ ġedōn. Noes līf, þæt hē sīe six hund wintra lange, ne ġelīcþ nānre ġesēon ne ġecyndelīcum cræfte. Swelċra aldordōmes and swelċes flōdes is nān andġitlic ġetācnung on þǣre worulde, ac mānað tō ġelēafan, nā tō wīsdōme.
