Matthew(i)
17 And the floud came .xl. dayes and .xl. nyghtes vpon the erth, & the water increased & bare vp the arcke, & it was lyfte vp from of the erth.
18 And the water preuayled & increased exceadingly vpon the erth: & the arcke went vpon the toppe of the waters.
19 And the waters preuailed excedingly aboue mesure vpon the erth, so that all the hye hylles whych are vnder all the partes of heauen were couered
20 euen .xv. cubytes hye preuayled the waters, so that the hylles were couered.
21 And all flesh that moued on the erth, both birdes, catell and beastes perysshed, with al that crepte on the erth and al men:
22 so that al that had the breth of lyfe in the nostrels of it thorow out all that was on drye lande, dyed.
23 Thus was destroyed al that was vpon the erth, both man, beastes, wormes and foules of the ayre, so that they were destroyed from the erth: saue Noe was reserued onlye and they that were with him in the arck.
