resshi vesseles vp on watris. Goth, &yogh;ee
swift aungeles, to the folc al to-pullid
and torn; to a ferful puple, after whyche
is not an other; folc abidende and totroden,
whos flodes rauesheden awei his
lond; to the mount of the name of the
Lord of ostus, mount of Sion.
3 Alle &yogh;ee
dwelleris of the world, that dwellen in
erthe, whan shal ben rered vp a tokne
in mounteynes, &yogh;ee shuln seen, and the
noise of the trumpe &yogh;ee shul heren.
4 For
these thingus seith the Lord to me, I shal

5 Bifor rip forsothe

and to the bestes of erthe; and in euerelastende

7 In that

ostes, fro the puple to-pullid and to-torn;
fro the ferful puple, after whom was
not an other; fro the folc abidende and
to-troden, whos flodus rauesheden awei
his lond; to the place of the name of the
Lord of ostus, mount of Sion.
