when now Moses stretched forth his hand over the see, the Lord carried away the see with a strong east wind that blew all night, and made the see dry land and the water divided it self. And the children of Israel went in through the middest of the see upon the dry ground. And the water was a wall unto them, both on their right hand and on the ir left hand. And the Egyptians followed and went in after them to the middest of the see, with all Pharaoh's horses, and his chariots and ⟨p. XXVI⟩his horsemen.

And in the morning watch, the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians out of the fiery and cloudy pillar, and troubled their host and smote of their chariot wheels and cast them down to the ground.
