DE FIDE CATHOLICA.

Aelc cristen man sceal aefter rihte cunnan aegdher ge his Pater noster ge

his Credan. Mid tham Pater nostre he sceal hine gebiddan, mid dham Credan

he sceal his geleafan getrymman. We habbadh gesaed embe thaet Pater noster,

nu we wylladh secgan eow thone geleafan the on dham Credan stent, swa swa

se w['i]sa Augustinus be dhaere Halgan Thrynnysse trahtnode.

An Scyppend is ealra dhinga, gesewenlicra and ungesewenlicra; and we

sceolon on hine gelyfan, fordhon dhe h['e] is sodh God and ['a]na

Aelmihtig, sedhe naefre ne ongann ne anginn naefde; ac he sylf is anginn,

and he eallum gesceaftum anginn and ordfruman forgeaf, thaet h['i] beon

mihton, and thaet h['i] haefdon agen gecynd, swa swa hit thaere

godcundlican fadunge {276} gelicode. Englas he worhte, tha sind gastas, and

nabbadh naenne lichaman. Menn he gesceop mid gaste and mid lichaman. Nytenu

and deor, fixas and fugelas he gesceop on flaesce butan s['a]wle. Mannum he

gesealde uprihtne gang; dha nytenu he l['e]t g['a]n alotene. Mannum he

forgeaf hl['a]f to bigleofan, and tham nytenum gaers.

Nu mage ge, gebrodhru, understandan, gif ge wylladh, thaet twa dhing

syndon: ['a]n is Scyppend, odher is gesceaft. He is Scyppend sedhe gesceop

and geworhte ealle dhing of nahte. Thaet is gesceaft thaet se sodha

Scyppend gesceop. Thaet sind aerest heofonas, and englas the on heofonum

wuniadh, and sydhdhan theos eordhe mid eallum dham dhe hire on eardiadh,

and s['ae] mid eallum dham the hyre on swymmadh. Nu ealle dhas dhing synd

mid anum naman genemnode, gesceaft. Hi naeron aefre wunigende, ac God hi

gesceop. Tha gesceafta sind fela. An is se Scyppend the hi ealle gesceop,

se ana is Aelmihtig God. He waes aefre, and aefre he bidh thurhwunigende on

him sylfum and dhurh hine sylfne. Gif he ongunne and anginn haefde, butan

tweon ne mihte he beon Aelmihtig God; sodhlice thaet gesceaft dhe ongann

and gesceapen is, naefdh nane godcundnysse; fordhi aelc edwist thaette God

nys, thaet is gesceaft; and thaet the gesceaft nis, thaet is God.

Se God wunadh on Dhrynnysse ['u]ntodaeledlic, and on ['a]nnysse ['a]nre

Godcundnysse, sodhlice odher is se Faeder, odher is se Sunu, odher is se

Halga Gast; ac theah-hwaedhere dhaera dhreora is ['a]n Godcundnys, and

gel['i]c wuldor, and efen-ece maegendhrymnys. Aelmihtig God is se Faeder,

Aelmihtig God is se Sunu, Aelmihtig God is se Halga Gast; ac

theah-hwaedhere ne sind dhry Aelmihtige Godas, ac ['a]n Aelmihtig God. Dhry

h['i] sind on hadum and on naman, and ['a]n on Godcundnysse. Thry, fordhi

the se Faeder bidh aefre Faeder, and se Sunu bidh aefre Sunu, and se Halga

Gast bidh aefre Halig Gast; and hyra n['a]n ne awent naefre of dham dhe he

is. Nu habbadh ge gehyred tha Halgan Thrynnysse; ge sceolon eac gehyran dha

sodhan Annysse.

{278} Sodhlice se Faeder, and se Sunu, and se Halga Gast, habbadh ['a]ne

Godcundnysse, and ['a]n gecynd, and ['a]n weorc. Ne worhte se Faeder n['a]n

dhing ne ne wyrcdh, butan dham Suna, odhdhe butan tham Halgan Gaste. Ne

heora n['a]n ne wyrcdh n['a]n dhing butan odhrum; ac him eallum is ['a]n

weorc, and ['a]n r['ae]d, and ['a]n willa. Aefre waes se Faeder, and aefre

waes se Sunu, and aefre waes se Halga Gast ['a]n Aelmihtig God. Se is

Faeder, sedhe nis nadher ne geboren ne gesceapen fram nanum odhrum. Se is

Faeder geh['a]ten, fordhan dhe he haefdh Sunu, dhone dhe he of him sylfum

gestrynde, butan aelcre meder. Se Faeder is God of nanum Gode. Se Sunu is

God of dham Faeder Gode. Se Halga Gast is God fordhstaeppende of dham

Faeder and of dham Suna. Thas word sind sceortlice gesaede, and eow is neod

thaet we hi swutelicor eow onwreon.

Hwaet is se Faeder? Aelmihtig Scyppend, na geworht ne acenned, ac h['e]

sylf gestrynde Bearn him sylfum efen-ece. Hwaet is se Sunu? He is dhaes

Faeder Wisdom, and his Word, and his Miht, thurh dhone se Faeder gesceop

ealle dhing and gefadode. Nis se Sunu na geworht ne gesceapen, ac he is

acenned. Acenned he is, and theah-hwaethere he is efen-eald and efen-ece

his Faeder. Nis na swa on his acennednysse swa swa bidh on ure

acennednysse. Thonne se mann sunu gestryndh, and his cild acenned bidh,

thonne bidh se faeder mara, and se sunu laessa. Hw['i] swa? Fordhi thonne

se sunu wyxdh, thonne ealdadh se faeder. Ne fintst thu na gelice on mannum

faeder and sunu. Ac ic dhe sylle bysne, hu dhu Godes acennednysse thy bet

understandan miht. Fyr acendh of him beorhtnysse, and seo beorhtnys is

efen-eald tham fyre. Nis na thaet fyr of dhaere beorhtnysse, ac seo

beorhtnys is of dham fyre. Thaet fyr acendh tha beorhtnysse, ac hit ne bidh

naefre butan dhaere beorhtnysse. Nu dhu gehyrst thaet seo beorhtnys is

ealswa eald swa thaet fyr the heo of cymdh; gedhafa nu fordhi thaet God

mihte gestrynan ealswa eald Bearn, and ealswa ece swa he sylf is. Se dhe

maeg understandan thaet ure Haelend Crist is on dhaere Godcundnysse ealswa

eald swa his Faeder, {280} h['e] dhancige thaes Gode, and blissige. Sedhe

understandan ne maeg, he hit sceal gelyfan, thaet he hit understandan

maege; fordhan thaes witegan word ne maeg beon a['i]dlod, dhe thus cwaedh,

"Buton ge hit gelyfan, ne mage ge hit understandan." Nu habbadh ge gehyred

thaet se Sunu is of dham Faeder butan aelcum anginne; fordhan dhe he is

thaes Faeder Wisdom, and he waes aefre mid tham Faeder, and aefre bidh.

Uton nu gehyran be dhan Halgan Gaste, hwaet he s['y]. He is se Willa and

seo sodhe Lufu thaes Faeder and thaes Suna, dhurh dhone sind ealle dhing

gel['i]ffaeste and gehealdene, be dham is thus gecweden, "Godes Gast

gefyldh ealne ymbhwyrft middangeardes, and he hylt ealle dhing, and he

haefdh ingeh['y]d aelces gereordes." Nis h['e] geworht, ne gesceapen, ne

acenned, ac h['e] is fordhstaeppende, thaet is ofgangende, of dham Faeder

and of dham Suna, tham h['e] is gelic and efen-ece. Nis se Halga Gast na

Sunu, fordhan dhe h['e] nis na acenned, ac h['e] gaedh of dham Faeder and

of dham Suna gelice; fordhan dhe h['e] is heora beigra Willa and Lufu.

Crist cwaedh thus be him on his godspelle, "Se Frofor-g['a]st, the ic eow

asendan wille, Gast dhaere sodhfaestnysse, dhe of minum Faeder gaedh, he

cydh gecydhnysse be me." Thaet is, He is min gewita thaet ic eom Godes

Sunu. And eac se rihta geleafa us taecdh, thaet we sceolon gelyfan on dhone

Halgan Gast: he is se liffaestenda God, se gaedh of dham Faeder and of dham

Suna. Hu gaedh h['e] of him? Se Sunu is thaes Faeder Wisdom, aefre of dham

Faeder; and se Halga Gast is heora beigra Willa, aefre of him b['a]m. Is

fordhi thonne ['a]n Faeder, sedhe aefre is Faeder, and ['a]n Sunu, sedhe

aefre bidh Sunu, and ['a]n Halig Gast, sedhe aefre is Halig Gast.

Aefre waes se Faeder, butan anginne; and aefre waes se Sunu mid tham

Faeder, fordhan dhe he is thaes Faeder Wisdom; aefre waes se Halga Gast,

sedhe is heora beigra Willa and Lufu. Nis se Faeder of nanum odhrum, ac he

waes aefre. Se Sunu is acenned of dham Faeder, ac he waes aefre on dhaes

Faeder {282} bosme, fordhan dhe he is his Wisdom, and he is of dham Faeder

eal thaet he is. Aefre waes se Halga Gast, fordhan dhe he is, swa we ['ae]r

cwaedon, Willa and sodh Lufu thaes Faeder and dhaes Suna; sodhlice willa

and lufu getacniadh an dhing: thaet thaet thu wylt, thaet dhu lufast; and

thaet thaet dhu nelt, thaet dhu ne lufast.

Seo sunne dhe ofer us scindh is lichamlic gesceaft, and haefdh swa-dheah

dhreo agennyssa on hire: an is seo lichamlice edwist, thaet is dhaere

sunnan trendel; odher is se leoma odhdhe beorhtnys aefre of dhaere sunnan,

seodhe onliht ealne middangeard; thridde is seo haetu, the mid tham leoman

cymdh to ['u]s. Se leoma is aefre of dhaere sunnan, and aefre mid hire; and

dhaes Aelmihtigan Godes Sunu is aefre of dham Faeder acenned, and aefre mid

him wunigende; be dham cwaedh se apostol, thaet he waere his Faeder wuldres

beorhtnys. Dhaere sunnan haetu gaedh of hire and of hire leoman; and se

Halga Gast gaedh aefre of dham Faeder and of tham Suna gelice; be dham is

thus awriten, "Nis n['a]n the hine behydan maege fram his haetan."

Faeder, and Sunu, and Halig Gast ne magon beon togaedere genamode, ac h['i]

ne beodh swa-theah nahw['a]r totwaemede. Nis se Aelmihtiga God na

dhryfeald, ac is Dhrynnys. God is se Faeder, and se Sunu is God, and se

Halga Gast is God: na dhry Godas, ac h['i] ealle dhry ['a]n Aelmihtig God.

Se Faeder is eac wisdom of nanum odhrum wisdome. Se Sunu is wisdom of dham

wisan Faeder. Se Halga Gast is wisdom. Ac dheah-hwaedhere h['i] sind ealle

aetgaedere ['a]n wisdom. Eft se Faeder is sodh lufu, and se Sunu is sodh

lufu, and se Halga Gast is sodh lufu; and h['i] ealle aetgaedere ['a]n God

and ['a]n sodh lufu. Eac swilce is se Faeder gast and halig, and se Sunu is

gast and halig untwylice; theah-hwaedhere se Halga Gast is synderlice

geh['a]ten Halig Gast, thaet thaet h['i] ealle dhry sind gemaenelice.

Swa micel gelicnys is on dhyssere Halgan Dhrynnysse, thaet se Faeder nis na

mare thonne se Sunu on dhaere Godcundnysse; {284} ne se Sunu nis na mare

thonne se Halgan Gast; ne nan heora ['a]n nis na laesse thonne eall seo

Dhrynnys. Swa hwaer swa heora ['a]n bidh, thaer h['i] beodh ealle dhry,

aefre ['a]n God untodaeledlic. Nis heora n['a]n m['a]re thonne odher, ne

n['a]n laessa dhonne odher; ne n['a]n beforan odhrum, ne n['a]n baeftan

odhrum; fordhan swa hwaet swa laesse bidh thonne God, thaet ne bidh na God;

thaet thaet lator bidh, thaet haefdh anginn, ac God naefdh n['a]n anginn.

Nis na se Faeder ana Dhrynnys, odhdhe se Sunu Dhrynnys, odhdhe se Halga

Gast Dhrynnys, ac thas dhry hadas sindon ['a]n God on anre Godcundnysse.

Thonne dhu gehyrst nemnan thone Faeder, thonne understenst dhu thaet he

haefdh Sunu. Eft, thonne thu cwyst Sunu, thu wast, butan tweon, thaet he

haefdh Faeder. Eft, we gelyfadh thaet se Halga Gast is aegdher ge dhaes

Faeder ge dhaes Suna Gast.

Ne bepaece n['a]n man hine sylfne, swa thaet he secge odhdhe gelyfe thaet

dhry Godas syndon; odhdhe aenig h['a]d on thaere Halgan Thrynnysse sy

unmihtigra thonne odher. Aelc dhaera threora is God, theah-hwaedhere h['i]

ealle ['a]n God; fordhan dhe h['i] ealle habbadh ['a]n gecynd, and ['a]ne

godcundnysse, and ['a]ne edwiste, and ['a]n gedheaht, and ['a]n weorc, and

['a]ne maegendhrymnysse, and gel['i]c wuldor, and efen-ece r['i]ce. Is

hwaedhere se Sunu ana geflaeschamod and geboren to men, of dham halgan

maedene Marian. Ne weardh se Faeder mid menniscnysse befangen, ac hwaedhere

h['e] asende his Sunu to ure alysednysse, and him aefre mid waes, aegdher

ge on life ge on dhrowunge, and on his aeriste, and on his upstige. Eac eal

Godes geladhung andet, on dham rihtum geleafan, thaet Crist is acenned of

dham claenan maedene Marian, and of dham Halgan Gaste. Nis se Halga Gast

theah-hwaedhere Cristes Faeder; ne n['a]n cristen man thaet naefre ne sceal

gelyfan: ac se Halga Gast is Willa thaes Faeder and dhaes Suna; fordhi

thonne swidhe rihtlice is awriten on urum geleafan, thaet Cristes

menniscnys weardh gefremmed thurh dhone Halgan Willan.

Beheald thas sunnan mid gleawnysse, on dhaere is, swa we aer cwaedon, haetu

and beorhtnys; ac seo haetu drygdh, and {286} seo beorhtnys onlyht. Odher

dhing dedh seo haetu, and odher seo beorhtnys; and dheah dhe h['i] ne magon

and seo onlihting belimpdh to dhaere beorhtnysse. Swa eac Crist ana

theah-hwaedhere h['i] waeron aefre mid him on eallum his weorcum and on

We sprecadh ymbe God, deadhlice be Undeadhlicum, tyddre be Aelmihtigum,

ne miht dhu hine ealne togaedere geseon, ac wenst abutan, thaet dhu ealne

unbefangenlic, sedhe aeghwaer is eall, and nahwar todaeled?

Nu smeadh sum undeopdhancol man, hu God maege be['o]n aeghwaer aetgaedere,

and nahwar todaeled. Beheald thas sunnan, hu heage heo astihdh, and hu heo

and on eallum eardum aetgaedere; and {288} hwaedhere heo is gesceaft, and

and gegladadh mid his neosunge, and dhaera ungeleaffulra manna heortan he

Wite eac gehw['a], thaet aelc man haefdh threo dhing on him sylfum

And h['e] worhte dha Ad['a]m to his anlicnysse. On hwilcum daele haefdh se

mannes sawl haefdh on hire gecynde thaere Halgan Thrynnysse anlicnysse;

Arrius hatte an gedwolman, se fl['a]t widh aenne bisceop the waes genemned

Tha begeat se gedwola thaes caseres fultum to his gedwylde, and cwaedh

Odher gedwolman waes se hatte Sabellius. He cwaedh, thaet se Faeder waere,

We habbadh thone geleafan dhe Crist sylf taehte his apostolum, and hi
