And their faces and their wings stretched out above an hie. Each had two wing coupled together and two that covered their ⟨p. cccc⟩bodies. And they went all straight forward And whether they had lust to go / thither they went / and turned not back again in their going. And the similitude of the bests and the fashion of them was as burning coals of fire and as fire brands / walking between the beasts. And the fire did shine / and out of the fire proceeded lightening. And the beasts ran & returned after the fashion of lightening.
