BUt the ſerpent was ſotyller then all the beaſtes of the felde(which ye LORDE God had made)[crossref 3] and ſayde vnto the woman: Yee, hath God ſayde in dede: Ye ſhall not eate of all maner trees in the garden?[crossref 4] Then ſayde the woman vnto the ſerpent: We eate of the frute of the trees in the garden: But as for the frute of the tre that is in the myddes of the garden, God hath ſayde: Eate not ye of it, and touch it not, leſt ye dye.

The woman ſayde: the ſerpent diſceaued me ſo, that I ate.[crossref 7] Then ſayde the LORDE God vnto the ſerpent: Becauſe thou haſt done this, curſed be thou aboue all catell and aboue all beaſtes of the felde. Vpon thy bely ſhalt thou go, ⁊ earth ſhalt thou eate all the dayes of thy life. And I wyll put enemyte betwene the and the woman, and betwene yi ſede and hir ſede.*[crossref 8] The ſame ſhal treade downe thy heade, and thou ſhalt treade him on the hele.
