Dearly beloved / be not ignorant of this one thing / how that one day is with the lord / as a thousand year / and a thousand year as one §Cday. The lord is not slack to fulfil his promise / as some men count slackness: but is patient to us ward & would have no man lost / but would receive all men to repentance. Nevertheless ⟨p. cccxxiiii⟩the day of the lord will come as a1 these in the night / in the which day / the heavens shall perish with terrible noise / & the elements shall melt with heat / and the earth with the works that are therein shall burn.

If all these things shall perish / what manner persons ought ye to be in holy conversation and godliness: looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God / in which the heavens shall perish with fire / and the elements shall be consumed with heat.
