This is the thinge that thou shalt doo vnto them when thou halowest them to be my preastes. Take one oxe and two rammes that are without blemysh, &abar;d vnleu&ebar;ded bred and cakes of swete bred tempered with oyle and wafers of swete bred anoynted with oyle (of wheten floure shalt thou make them) and put them in a maunde and brynge th&ebar; in the maunde with the oyle and the .ij. rammes.

And brynge Aaron &abar;d his sonnes vnto the doore of the tabernacle of wytnesse, ^note &abar;d wassh them with water, and take the garmentes, and put apon Aaron: the strayte cote, and the tunycle of the Ephod, and the Ephod &abar;d the brestlappe: and gerth th&ebar; to him with the brodered girdel of the Ephod. And put the mitre vpp&obar;

his heed and put the holy crowne vpon the mytre. Then take the anoyntynge oyle and poure it apon his heed and anoynte him. And brynge his sonnes and put albes apon them, &abar;d gerth them with girdels: as well Aaron as his sonnes, And put the bonettes on them that the preastes office maye be theirs for a perpetuall lawe.

And fyll the handes of Aaron and of hys sonnes, and brynge the oxe before the tabernacle of witnesse. And let Aar&obar; &abar;d his s&obar;nes put their h&abar;des ap&obar; his heed &abar;d kyll h&ibar; before the Lord in the dore of the tabernacle of witnesse And take of the bloud of the oxe &abar;d put it ap&obar; the hornes of the alter with thi finger &abar;d poure all the bloude apon the botome of the alter, &abar;d take all the fatt that couereth the inwardes, &abar;d the kall that is on the lyuer and the .ij. kydneys with the fatt that is ap&obar; th&ebar;: and burne th&ebar; ap&obar; the alter. But the flesh of the oxe and his skynne and his donge, shalt thou burne with fyre, without the hoste. For it is a synneofferynge.

Then take one of the rammes, &abar;d let Aaron and his sonnes put their hondes apon the heade of the ram, and cause him to be slayne, &abar;d take of his bloude and sprenkell it rounde aboute apon the alter, and cutt the ram in peces and

whesh the inwardes of him and his legges, &abar;d put them vnto the peces &abar;d vnto his heed, &abar;d burne the hole ram apon the alter. For it is a burntofferyng vnto the Lorde, and a swete sauoure of the Lordes sacrifice.

And take the other ram and let Aaron and hys sonnes, put their hondes apon hys heed and let him than be kylled. And take of his bloude and put it apon the typpe of the righte eare of Aaron and of his sonnes, and apon the thombe of their righte handes, and apon the great too of their ryghte fete: and sprenkell the bloude apon the alter rounde aboute.

Than take of the bloude that is apon the alter and of the anoyntynge oyle, &abar;d spr&ebar;kell it apon Aaron and his vestim&ebar;tes, &abar;d ap&obar; his sonnes &abar;d ap&obar; their garm&ebar;tes also. Th&abar; is he &abar;d his clothes holy &abar;d his sonnes &abar;d their clothes holye also

Than take the fatt of the ram and hys rompe and the fatt that couereth the inwardes and the kall of the lyuer and the two kydneys and the fatt that is apon them and the righte shulder (for that ram is a fulloffrynge) and a symnell of bred &abar;d a cake of oyled bred &abar;d a wafer out of the baskett of swete bred that is before

the Lorde, and put all apon the handes of Aaron and on the handes of his sonnes: and waue th&ebar; in &abar;d out a waueoffrynge vnto the Lorde. Than take it from of their handes and burne it apon the alter: euen apon the burntoffringe, to be a sauoure of swetnesse before the Lorde. For it is a sacrifice vnto the Lorde.

Then take the brest of the ram that is Aarons fulloffrynge and waue it a waueoffrynge before the Lorde, &abar;d let that be thy parte. And sanctifie the brest of the waueoffrynge and the shulder of the heueoffrynge whiche is waued and heued vp of the ram whiche is the fulloffrynge of Aaron &abar;d of his sonnes. And it shalbe Aarons &abar;d his sonnes dutye for euer, of the childr&ebar; of Israel: for it is an heueoffrynge. And the heueoffrynge shalbe the Lordes dutie of the childern of Israel: euen of the sacrifice of their peaceoffrynges which they heue vnto the Lorde.

And the holye garmentes of Aaron shalbe his sonnes after him, to anoynte them therin, and to fyll their handes therin. And that sonne that is preast in his stede after him, shall put them on seuen dayes: that he goo in to the tabernacle of witnesse, to ministre in the holye place.

Th&abar; take the ram that is the fullofferyng &abar;d

seth his flesh in an holye place. And Aar&obar; and his sonnes shall eate the flesh of h&ibar;, &abar;d the bred that is in the basket: euen in the dore of the tabernacle of witnesse. And they shall eat th&ebar;, because the attonm&ebar;t was made therewith to fyll their handes and to sanctifie th&ebar;: but a straunger shal not eate therof, because they are holie

Yf oughte of the flesh of the fulloffrynges, or of the bred remayne vnto the mornyng, thou shalt burne it with fyre: for it shall not be eaten, because it is holye. And se thou do vnto Aaron and his sonnes: euen so in all thynges as I haue commaunded the: that thou fyll their handes seuen dayes and offre euery daye an oxe for a synneoffrynge for to rec&obar;cyle with all. And thou shalt halowe the alter when thou reconcyclest it, and shalt anoynte it to sanctifie it. Seu&ebar; dayes thou shalt reconcyle the alter and sanctifie it, that it maye be an alter most holye: so that no m&abar; maye twich it but thei that be ^note consecrate.

This is that which thou shalt offre vp&obar; the alter: ij. lambes of one yere olde daye by daye for euer, the one thou shalt offre in the morninge and the other at euen. And vnto the one l&abar;be take a tenth deale of floure myngled wyth the fourth parte of an hin of beaten oyle, and the fourt parte of an hin of wyne, for a drinckeoffrynge.

And the other lambe thou shalt offer at euen and shall doo thereto acordynge to the meateoffrynge and drinkeoffrynge in the mornynge, to be an odoure of a swete sauoure of the sacrifice of the Lorde. And it shalbe a continuall burntoffrynge amonge youre children after you, in the doore of the tabernacle of witnesse before the Lorde, where I will mete you to spake vnto you there. There I will mete wyth the childern of Israel, and wilbe sanctified in myne honoure. And I will sanctifie the tabernacle of witnesse and the alter: and I will sanctifie also both Aaron and his sonnes to be my preastes. And moreouer I will dwell am&obar;ge the children of Israel and wilbe their God. And they shal knowe that I am the Lorde their God that broughte them out of the lond of Egipte for to dwell amonge them: euen I the Lorde their God,
