¶ The Dragon persecuteth the woman: she is defended and preserued of the Lorde. The Dragon standeth on the sande, &c. The .liiij. Sermon.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast to the Earth, he persecuted the woman, which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great Eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place where she is nourished for a time, two times & half a time, from the presence of the serpent. And the dragon cast out of his mouth water, after the woman, as it had ben a river, that he might cause her to be caught of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, & the earth opened her mouth & swallowed up the river, which the Dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went & made war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, & have the testimony of Jesus Christ, and he stood on the Sea sand.
ANd when the dragon saw that he was cast to the Earth, he persecuted the woman, whiche brought forth the man childe. And to the womā were geuē two winges of a greate Egle, that she might flie into ye wildernes, into her place where she is nurrished for a time, two times & half a time, from the presence of the serpēt. And the dragō cast out of his mouth water, after the woman, as it had bē a riuer, that he might cause her to be caught of the floude. And the earth holpe the woman, & the earth opened her mouth & swalowed vp the riuer, which the Dragō cast out of his mouth. And ye dragon was wroth with the womā, and went & made warre with the rēnaunt of her sede, which kepe the cōmaundements of God, & haue the testimony of Iesus Christ, and he stode on the Sea sande.
