¶ The .v. Chapter.
We know surely if our earthy mansion wherein we now dwell were destroyed / that we have a building ordained of god / an habitation not made with hands / §Abut eternal in heaven. And herefore sigh we / desiring to be clothed with our mansion which is from heaven: so yet if that we be found clothed / and not naked. For as long as we are in this tabernacle / we sigh and are grieved for we would not be unclothed but would be clothed upon / that mortality might be swallowed1 up of life. He that hath ordained us for this thing / is god which very same hath given unto us the earnest of the spirit.
VVe knowe suerly yfoure erthy mancion wherin we now dwell were destroyed / that we have a bildinge ordeyned of god / an habitacion not made with hondes / §Abut eternall in hevē. And herefore sigh we / desyringe to be clothed wt oure mansion which is from heven: so yet if that we be founde clothed / and not naked. For as longe as we are in this tabernacle / we sigh and are greved for we wold not be vnclothed but wolde be clothed apon / that mortalite myght be swalowed1 vp of lyfe. He that hath ordeyned vs for this thynge / ys god which very same hath geven vnto vs the ernest of the sprete.
