All editorial introduction, translation, and commentary have been omitted. The editor presents two separate editions: a text that marks prosodic features (rhyme and alliteration) and a plain text representing the editor's view of the form of the text. The electronic text is that of the latter in all respects, except that the typographical indentation of the last five lines is not retained. All variants recorded by the editor have been retained and these are tagged as variants. Note that in the case of MS B lines 15–16 are absent and in the case of MS A lines 27–31 are absent.
