and

That thou be saved, and all who dwell with thee.

And I am He who is, and in thy heart

And I am He who is, and in thy heart

And cast the sea around me, and for me

And cast the sea around me, and for me

Earth is a footstool, and the air is poured

Around my body; and on every side

And five are mates; and of the entire sum

And five are mates; and of the entire sum

The hundreds are twice eight and thrice three tens

Thus he spoke; and great trembling seized on him

At what he heard. And then, within his mind

The people and began with words like these:

And fearless heavenly Creator, God

And do ye all entreat him--he is kind--

For life of cities and of all the world,

And of four-footed beasts and flying fowls;

And of four-footed beasts and flying fowls;

A fearful cry. And suddenly for you

The air shall be disordered, and from heaven

Upon you. And it certainly shall be

And from this time repent; and nothing more

And from this time repent; and nothing more

Fretful and evil lawlessly shall ye

And then again did Noah sound this strain:

And loving shamelessness, rapacious lords,

Shall, root and branch, in one night disappear,

And cities, men and all, shall the Earth-shaker

And cities, men and all, shall the Earth-shaker

From the depths scatter and their walls destroy.

And then the whole world of unnumbered men

Earth shall float, hills float, and even sky shall float;

Everything shall be water, and all things

Shall be destroyed by waters. And the winds

Shall stand still, and a second age shall come.

First rise up, and thou first another race

Beginning; and thou shalt be nurse for all."

Appeared, and once more cried aloud and said:

Appeared, and once more cried aloud and said:

Did promise and confirm, and to complete,

Did promise and confirm, and to complete,

And the wives. Call as many as I bid,

Of tribes of beasts and creeping things and birds,

Of tribes of beasts and creeping things and birds,

And in as many as I ordain for life

Thus spoke he; forth went (Noah) and aloud

Cried out and called. And then wife, sons and brides,

Cried out and called. And then wife, sons and brides,

Cried out and called. And then wife, sons and brides,

About the lid, and in its polished place

And he massed clouds, and bid the sun's bright disk,

And he massed clouds, and bid the sun's bright disk,

And moon, and stars, and circle of the heaven,

And moon, and stars, and circle of the heaven,

And moon, and stars, and circle of the heaven,

And all the winds together were aroused,

And all the veins of water were unloosed

And from earth's caverns and the tireless deep

And from earth's caverns and the tireless deep

Appeared the myriad waters, and the whole

And torn by many furious waves, and struck

And torn by many furious waves, and struck

Had had enough of Nereus. And straightway

And looking out upon the mighty mass

And 'twas his fortune with his eyes to see!--

Fear possessed and shook mightily his heart.

And then the air became a little calm,

How pale and blood-red was the mighty sky

And sun's bright disk awearied; scarcely held

Noah his courage. And then forth afar

Had ceased the many waters. And she flew

And flew on, and went o'er the earth and, resting

And flew on, and went o'er the earth and, resting

And flew on, and went o'er the earth and, resting

Again to Noah back she came and bore

Courage now filled them all, and great delight,

And coming to the land continued there.

And Noah knew the land was nearer now.

Had here and there o'er ocean's billows swum,

From death, and there was great desire of heart;

When the waters ceased, and then again from heaven

Come boldly forth, with thy sons and thy wife

And the three brides, and fill ye all the earth,

And the three brides, and fill ye all the earth,

And with him went his sons and wife and brides,

And with him went his sons and wife and brides,

And with him went his sons and wife and brides,

And creeping things, and birds and quadrupeds,

And creeping things, and birds and quadrupeds,

And creeping things, and birds and quadrupeds,

And all things else went from the wooden house

Into one place. And then went Noah forth

He had made full twice twenty days and one

Golden first, which indeed was sixth, and best,

Much tossed, with husband and with brothers-in-law,

Stepfather and stepmother, and with wives

Stepfather and stepmother, and with wives

And afterward the royal power and sway

And afterward the royal power and sway

And many a year rule, rendering what is just
