Wherefore the King, Almighty God, wrought him an<br>helpmeet; the Author of life made woman and brought her unto the<br>man whom He loved. He took the stuff of Adam's body, and<br>secretly drew forth a rib from his side. He was fast asleep in<br>peaceful slumber; he knew no pain nor any pang; there came no<br>blood from out the wound, but the Lord of angels drew forth from<br>his body a growing rib, and the man was unhurt. Of this God<br>fashioned a lovely maid, breathing into her life and an eternal<br>soul. They were like unto the angels. The bride of Adam was a<br>living spirit. By God's might both were born into the world in<br>the loveliness of youth. They knew no sin nor any evil, but in<br>the hearts of both there burned the love of God.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">(ll. 192-195) Then the Gracious King, Lord of all human kind,<br>blessed these two, male and female, man and wife, and spake this<br>word:</div><div style="margin:10px 0">(ll. 196-205) &quot;Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the green earth<br>with your seed and increase, sons and daughters. And ye shall<br>have dominion over the salt sea, and over all the world. Enjoy<br>the riches of earth, the fish of the sea, and the fowls of the<br>air. To you is given power over the herds which I have hallowed,<br>and the wild beasts, and over all living things that move upon<br>the earth; all living things, which the depths bring forth<br>throughout the sea, shall be subject unto you.&quot;</div><div style="margin:10px 0">((LACUNA -- One or more leaves missing))</div><div style="margin:10px 0">(ll. 206-234) And our Lord beheld the beauty of His works and the<br>abundance of all fruits of this new creation: Paradise lay<br>pleasant and inviting, filled with goodly store and endless<br>blessings. Bountifully a running stream, a welling spring,<br>watered that pleasant land. Not yet did clouds, dark with wind,<br>carry the rains across the spacious earth; nathless the land lay<br>decked with increase. Out from this new Paradise four pleasant<br>brooks of water flowed. All were divisions of one beauteous<br>stream, sundered by the might of God when He made the earth, and<br>sent into the world. And one of these the mortal dwellers of<br>earth called Pison, which compasseth the land of Havilah about<br>with shining waters. And in that land, as books tell us, the<br>sons of men from far and near find out the best of gold and<br>precious gems. And the second floweth round about the land and<br>borders of the Ethiopians, a spacious kingdom. Its name is<br>Gihon. The third is Tigris, whose abundant stream lieth about<br>the limits of Assyria.
