¶ These are the generations of heaven & erth when they were created/ in the tyme when the LORde God created heaven and erth and all the shrubbes of the felde before they were in the erthe. And all the herbes of the felde before they sprange: for the LORde God had yet sent no rayne vpon the erth/ nether was there yet any man to tylle the erth. But there arose a myste out of the ground and watered all the face of the erth: Then the LORde God shope man/ even of the moulde of the erth and brethed into his face the breth of lyfe. So man was made a lyvynge soule. ¶ The LORde God also planted a garden in Eden from the begynnynge/ and there he sette man whom he had formed. And the LORde God made to sprynge out of the erth/ all maner trees bewtyfull to the syghte and pleasant to eate/ and the tree of lyfe in the middes of the garden: and also the tree of knowlege of good and euell. ¶ And there spronge a rever out of Eden to water the garden/ and thence devided it selfe/ and grewe in to foure principall waters. The name of the one is Phison/ he it is that compasseth all the lande of heuila/ where gold groweth. And the gold of that contre ys precious/ there is found bedellion and a stone called Onix. The name of the seconde ryver is Gihon/ which compassyth all the lande of Inde. And the name of the thyrde river is Hidekell/ which runneth on the easte syde of the assyryans And the fourth river is Euphrates. ¶ And the LORde God toke Adam and put him in the garden of Eden/ to dresse it and to kepe it: and the LORde God cõmaunded Adã saynge: of all the trees of the gardẽ se thoũ eate. But of the tre of knowlege of good and badd se that thou eate not: for even y^e same daye thou eatest of it/ thou shalt surely dye. ¶ And the LORde God sayd: it is not good that man shulde be alone/ I will make hym an helper to beare him company: And after y^t the LORde God had make of the erth all maner beastes of the felde/ and all maner foules of the ayre/ he brought them vnto Adam to see what he wold call them. And as Adã called all maner livynge beastes: evẽ so are their names. And Adam gave names vnto all maner catell/ and vnto the foules of the ayre/ and vnto all maner beastes of the felde. But there was no helpe founde vnto Adam to beare him companye Then the LORde God cast a slomber on Adam/ and he slepte. And then he toke out one of his rybbes/ and in stede ther of he fylled vp the place with flesh. And the LORde God made of the rybbe which he toke out of Adam/ a womã and brought her vnto Adam. Then sayd Adã this is once bone of my boones/ and flesh of my flesh. This shall be called woman: because she was take of the man. For this cause shall a man leve father and mother & cleve vnto his wyfe/ & they shall be one flesh. And they were ether of them naked/ both Adam and hys wyfe/ ãd were not ashamed: The .iij. Chapter
