In erth I se bot syn reynand to and fro,
Emang both more and myn, ichon other fo
With all thare entent.
All shall I fordo
With floodis that shall floo; 115
Wirk shall I thaym wo
That will not repent.
[God descends and addresses Noah.]
14. Noe, My freend, I thee commaund, from cares the to keyle,
A ship that thou ordand of nayle and bord ful wele.
