ing, Through all ages thou hast wrought many evils, thou hast not rested in any wise; I deliver thee this day unto everlasting fire. And having quickly called Hades, he commanded him, saying, Take this most base and wicked one, and hold him in thy custody until the day when I shall command thee.

CHAPTER IX. (XXV.)
Then the Lord Jesus, the Saviour of all, who is kind and most gentle, saluted Adam graciously, and said unto him, Peace be unto thee, Adam, together with thy children through immeasurable ages of ages. Amen. Then father Adam fell down at the feet of the Lord, and arose again and kissed his hands, and wept violently, saying, Behold the hands which formed me. And he testified unto all; and said to the Lord, Thou art come, O King of Glory, delivering men and gathering them to thine eternal kingdom. Then also our mother Eve in like manner fell down at the feet of the Lord, and arose again and kissed his hands, and weeping violently said, Behold the hands which fashioned me. And she testified unto all.
