The VII. Chapter.

A   And after that sawe I foure angels st&obar;de on þe; foure corners of the earth, holdinge þe; foure wyndes of þe; earth, þt; þe; wyndes shulde not blowe on þe; earth, nether on þe; see, nether on eny tree. And I sawe another angel ascende fr&obar; the rysinge of the sonne: which had the seale of þe; lyuinge God and he cryed with a loude voyce to the foure angelles (to whom power was geuen to hurt the earth and the see) sayenge: note Hurt not the earth nether the see, nether the trees, till we haue sealed the serua&ubar;tes of oure God in their forheddes.

B   And I herde the nombre of them which were sealed, and there were sealed an c. and xliiij. M. of all the trybes of the children of Israell. Of þe; trybe of Iuda were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Ruben were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Gad were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Asser were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Neptalym were sealed xij. M. Of þe; trybe of Manasses were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Symeon were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Leui were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Isacar were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Zabulon were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Ioseph were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Beniamin were sealed xij. thousande.

noteAfter this I behelde, and lo, a gret multitude (which no man coulde nombre) of all nacions and people, and tonges, stode before the seate, and before the lambe, clothed &wt; longe whyte garm&ebar;tes, and palmes in their hondes, and cryed with a loude voyce, sayenge: saluacion be asscribed to him þt; sytteth vpon the seate of oure God, and vnto the lambe. And all the angels stode in the compase of the seate, and of the elders and of the foure beastes, and fell before þe; seat on their faces, and worshipped God, sayenge, amen: C   Blessynge and glory, wi&esset;dome and th&abar;kes, and honour, and power and might, be vnto oure God for euermore Amen.

And one of the elders answered, sayenge vnto me: what are these which are arayed in longe whyte garm&ebar;tes, and whence cam they? And I sayde vnto him: LORDE thou wotest. And he sayde vnto me: these are they which cam out of gret tribulacion, and made their garmentes large, and made th&ebar; whyte in the bloude of the lambe: therfore are they in the presence of the seate of God and serue him daye and night in his temple, and he that sytteth in the seate, wyll dwell amonge them. They shal honger note nomore nether thyrst, nether shal the sonne lyght on them, nether eny heate: For the l&abar;be which is in the myddes of the seate, shal fede them, and shal leade them vnto fountaynes of lyuynge water, note and God shal wype awaye all teares from their eyes.
