      ANd the LORde sayd vnto Noe: goo in to the arcke both thou and all thy houssold. For the haue I sene rightuous before me in thys generacion. Of all clene beastes take vnto the .vij. of every kynde the male and hys female And of vnclene beastes a payre/ the male and hys female: lykewyse of the byrdes of the ayre vij. of every kynde/ male and female to save seed vppon all the erth. For .vij. dayes hence wyll I send rayne vppõ the erth .xl. days & .xl. nyghtes and wyll dystroy all maner of thynges that I haue made/ from of the face of the erth..

      And Noe dyd acordynge to all y^t the lorde cõmaunded hym: and Noe was .vi. hundred yere olde/ when the floud of water came vppon the erth: and Noe went and his sonnes and his wyfe and his sonnes wyves wyth hym/ in to the arke from the waters of the floud. And of clene beastes and of beastes that are vnclene and of byrdes and of all that crepeth vppõ the erth/ came in by cooples of every kynde vnto Noe in to the arke: a male and a female: even as God commaunded Noe. And the seventh daye the waters of the floud came vppon the erth.

      In the .vi. hundred yere of Noes lyfe/ in the secõde moneth/ in the .xvij daye of the moneth/ y^t same daye were all the founteynes of the grete depe broken vp/ & the wyndowes of heavẽ were opened/ ãd there fell a rayne vpon the erth .xl. dayes and .xl. nyghtes.

      And the selfe same daye went Noe/ Sem/ Ham and Iapheth/ Noes sonnes/ and Noes wyfe and the .iij. wyues of his sonnes wyth them in to the arke: both they and all maner of beastes in their kĩde/ & all maner of catell in their kynde & all maner of wormes that crepe vppon the erth in their kynde/ and all maner of byrdes in there kynde./ and all maner off foules whatsoever had feders. And they came vnto Noe in to the arke by cooples/ of all flesh y^t had breth of lyfe in it. And they that came/ came male ãd female of every flesh acordĩge as God cõmaunded hym: & y^e LORde shytt the dore vppõ him

      And the floud came .xl. dayes & .xl. nyghtes vppon the erth/ & the water increased and bare vp the arcke ãd it was lifte vp from of the erth And the water prevayled and increased exceadingly vppon the erth: and the arke went vppõ the toppe of the waters.

      And the waters prevayled excedingly above mesure vppõ the erth/ so that all the hye hylles which are vnder all the partes of heaven/ were covered: evẽ .xv. cubytes hye prevayled the waters/ so that the hylles were covered.

      And all fleshe that moved on the erth/ bothe birdes catell and beastes perisshed/ with al that crepte on the erth and all men: so that all that had the breth of liffe in the nostrels of it thorow out all that was on drye lond dyed.

      Thus was destroyed all that was vppõ the erth/ both man/ beastes/ wormes and foules of the ayre/ so that they were destroyed from the erth: save Noe was reserved only and they that were wyth hym in the arke. And the waters prevayled vppon the erth/ an hundred and fyftye dayes.
