though they suffre trouble, yet the lambe fedeth
them, ledeth them to the fountaynes of lyuynge
water, and God shall wype awaye all teares fr&obar;

A And after that, I sawe .iiii. &abar;gels
st&abar;de on the .iiii. corners of þe; erth
holdynge þe; foure wyndes of the
erth, þt; þe; wynde shuld not blowe
on þe; erth, nether on þe; see, nether on eny tree.
&cross2; And I sawe another angell asc&ebar;de from
the rysynge of the sunne, which had þe; seale
of the lyuyng God, ∧ he cryed wyth a loude
voyce to þe; foure Angels (to whom power
was geu&ebar; to hurte þe; erth ∧ the see) saying:
hurt not the erth nether the see, nether the
trees, tyll we haue sealed the seruauntes of
oure God in their forheades.

C After this I behelde, ∧ lo, a gret multitude
(which nom&abar; coulde n&obar;bre) of all nacy&obar;s
∧ people, ∧ t&obar;ges, stode before þe; seate, ∧ before
þe; l&abar;be, clothed with l&obar;ge white garm&ebar;tes,
∧ palmes in their handes, ∧ cryed with
a lowde voyce, sayinge: saluacyon be asscribed
to him that sytteth vpon þe; seate of oure
God, ∧ vnto þe; lambe. And all the angels
stode in the c&obar;pase of the seate, ∧ of þe; elders
∧ of þe; foure bestes, ∧ fell before the seat on

Amen: Blessinge ∧ glory ∧ wysdome ∧ th&abar;kes,

oure God for euermore. Amen. &cross3;
D And one of the elders answered, sayinge
vnto me: what are these which are arayed
&ibar; l&obar;ge whyte garm&ebar;tes, ∧ wh&ebar;ce came they?
And I sayde vnto him: Lord thou wotest.
And he sayde to me: these are they, whych
came out of great tribulacy&obar;, ∧ made their
garm&ebar;tes large, ∧ made them white by the
bloude of þe; lambe: therfore are they in the
presence of þe; seate of God ∧ serue hym daye
∧ nyght in his t&ebar;ple, ∧ he that sytteth in the
seate wyll dwell amonge them. They shall
honger no more, nether thyrst, nether shall

For þe; l&abar;be whych is in þe; myddes of þe; seate,
shall fede them, ∧ shall leade them vnto
fountaynes of lyuynge water, ∧ God shall
