¶ The .xxxv. Chapter. ¶ Of the tyme and kyngdome of Christ.

A   But the deserte and wildernes shall reioyce, the waste grounde shalbe glad and florysh as the lylly. She shall floryshe pleasauntlye, and be ioyfull, and euer be geuyng of thankes more and more. For the glory of Libanus, the bewtye of Charmel and Saron shalbe geuen her. These shall knowe the honoure of the Lorde, and the magesty of oure God. noteAnd therfore strength the weake h&abar;des, and conforte the feble knees.

B   Saye vnto them that are of a fearefull hert. Be of good chere, and feare not. noteBeholde, youre God commeth to take vengea&ubar;ce: and you shall se the rewarde that God geueth: God commeth his awne selfe, ∧ will delyuer you. noteThen shall the eyes of þe; blinde be lyghtened, and the eares of the deaffe opened. Then shall the lame man leape as an hert, ∧ the note d&obar;me mans tonge shall geue th&abar;ckes. noteIn the wildernes also, there shall welles spring, ∧ floudes of water in þe; desert. C   The drye grounde shall turne to riuers, and the thursty to sprynges of water. Where as drag&obar;s dwelt afore, ther shall growe swete floures and grene rushes. There shalbe fote pathes ∧ com&ebar; stretes, this shalbe called the holy waye. No vnclene person shall go thorowe it: for the Lorde him self shall go with them that waye, and the wayferer, nor ignoraunt shall not erre. There shalbe no ly&obar; ∧ no rauishing beast shall come therin, D   nor be there but m&ebar; redemed shall go there fre and safe. And the redemed of the Lorde, I saye, shall conuerte and come to Zion with thanckesgeuing. Euerlastyng ioye shall they haue: pleasure and gladnes shalbe among th&ebar;. And as for all sorowe and heuynes, it shall vanysh awaye.
