noteThus was heau&ebar; and earth fynished
with all their hoost, and thus in the
seuenth daye God ended his worke,
which he had made, ∧ rested in the seuenth
daye from all his workes which he had made:
And blessed the seuenth daye, ∧ sanctified
it, because þt; in it he rested from all his workes,
which God created and made.
These are the generacions of heau&ebar; and
earth whan they were created, in the tyme
whan the LORDE God made heauen and
earth: before there was eny twygg vpon
earth, and or euer there grew eny grene herbe
vpon the felde. For the LORDE God had
yet sent no rayne vpon þe; earth, nether was
there eny man to tylle the earth. But there
arose a myst from the earth, ∧ watered all
the londe. noteB And þe; LORDE God shope man
eu&ebar; of the moulde of the earth, ∧ brethed in
to his face þe; breth of life. And so was man
made a lyuynge soule.
The LORDE God also planted a gard&ebar;
of pleasure in Eden, towarde þe; east, and set
man therin whom he had made. And the
LORDE God caused to sprynge out of the
earth all maner trees, pleasa&ubar;t to loke vp&obar;,
and good to eate: and the tre of life in the
myddest of the garden, and the tre of knowlege
of good and euell. note
And out of Eden there wente a ryuer, to
water the garden, and there deuyded it selfe
into foure heade waters. The first is called
Phison, which renneth aboute all the londe
of Heuyla. noteAnd there is founde golde, (∧ the
golde of that countre is precious,) and there
is founde Bedellion, and the precious stone
note Onix. C The second water is called Gihon,
which runneth aboute the whole londe of þe;
Mori&abar;s. The thirde water is called Hydeckell,
which runneth towarde the east syde of
þe; Assiri&abar;s. The fourth water is Euphrates.
And the LORDE God toke man, ∧ set him
in the pleasaunt garden of Eden, to dresse it
∧ to kepe it. And the LORDE God commaunded
man, say&ebar;ge: note Thou shalt eate of all maner
trees in þe; garden: But of þe; tre of knowlege
-- --
of good and euell, shalt thou not eate.
For loke in what daye so euer thou eatest
therof, thou shalt dye the death.

And the LORDE God sayde: It is not
good þt; m&abar; shulde be alone. I wil make him
an helpe, note to beare him c&obar;pany. And whan
God the LORDE had made of the earth all
maner beastes of the felde, ∧ all maner foules
vnder the heau&ebar;, he brought them vnto
man, to se what he wolde call th&ebar;: For as m&abar;
called all maner of liuinge soules, so are their
names. D And man gaue names vnto all maner
catell, ∧ vnto the foules vnder the heau&ebar;,
and vnto all maner beastes of þe; felde. But
vnto man there was founde no helpe, to beare
him company.
Then the LORDE God caused an herde
slepe to fall vpon man, and he slepte. And he
toke out one of his rybbes, and (in steade
therof) he fylled vp þe; place with flesh. And
the LORDE God made a woman, note of þe; rybbe
that he toke out of man, and brought her
vnto him. Then sayde man: This is once bone
of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She
shalbe called woman, because she was tak&ebar;
of man. noteFor this cause shal a man leaue father
and mother, and cleue vnto his wife, ∧
they two shalbe one flesh. And they were
both naked, the man and his wife, and were
not ashamed.
