 &#383;ayde they: Came&#383;t not thou onely herin as a &#383;traunger, and wilt thou now be a iudge? Wel, we will deale worſe with the the&#772; with them.

And they preſſed &#383;ore vpon man Lot. And what they ranne to, and wolde haue broken vp the dore, the men put out their hondes, and pulled Lot vnto them in to the houſe, and &#383;hut to the dore. And the men at dore of the houſe were &#383;myttē with blyndne&#383;&#383;e both ſmall and greate, &#383;o that they coude not fynde the dore.

And men &#383;aide vnto Lot: Ha&#383;t thou yet here eny &#383;onne in lawe, or ſonnes or doughters? Who ſo euer belongeth vnto the in the cite, brynge him out of this place: for we mu&#383;t de&#383;troye this place, becauſe the crye of them is greate before the LORDE, which hath &#383;ent vs to de&#383;troye them. Then wente Lot forth, and ſpake to his &#383;onnes in lawe, which ſhulde haue maried his doughters, and ſayde: O ſtonde vp, and get you out of this place, for the LORDE wyll de&#383;troye this cite. Neuertheles they toke it but for a &#383;porte.

Now whan the mornynge aro&#383;e, the angels cauſed Lot to ſpede him, and &#383;ayde: Stonde vp, take thy wife &#x204a; thy two doughters which are at hande, that thou alſo periſhe not in the ſynne of this cite. But whyle he prolonged the time, the men caught him and his wife, and his two doughters by the hande(becauſe the LORDE was mercifull vnto him,) and brought him forth, &#x204a; ſet him without the cite.

And whe&#772; they had brought him out, they &#383;ayde: Saue thy &#383;oule, and loke not behynde the, nether ſtonde thou in all this countre: Saue thy ſelf vpon the mountayne, that thou periſh not. Then &#383;ayde Lot vnto the&#772;: Oh no my LORDE beholde, in as moche as thy ſeruau&#772;t hath founde grace in thy &#383;ight, now make yi mercy greate, which thou haſt &#383;hewed vnto me, in that thou &#383;aue&#383;t my &#383;oule alyue. I can not &#383;aue my &#383;elf vpon the mountayne. There might &#383;ome my&#383;fortune fall vpon me, that I ſhulde dye. Beholde, here is a cite by, that I maye flye vnto, and it is a litle one: let me &#383;aue myſelf there in. Is it not a litle one, that my ſoule maye lyue?

[[{{style|font-weight:normal;|E}}]]
Then &#383;ayde he vnto him: Beholde, I haue loked vpon the in this poynte alſo, that I will not ouerthrowe the cite, wherof thou ha&#383;t &#383;poken. Hai&#383;t the, and &#383;aue thy &#383;elf there: for I can do nothinge tyll thou be come thither. Therfore is the cite called Zoar. And the Sonne was vp vpon the earth, whan Lot came in to Zoar.

Then the LORDE cauſed brym&#383;tone and fyre to rayne downe from the LORDE out of heauen vpon Sodoma and Gomorra, and ouerthrew thoſe cities, the whole region, and all that dwelt in the cities, and that that grew vpon the earth. And his wife loked behynde her, and was turned into a pillar of ſalt.

Abraham ro&#383;e vp early in the mornynge, and gat him vnto the place, where he had ſtonde before the LORDE, and turned his face towarde Sodoma and Gomorra, and all londe of that countre, and loked. And beholde, there roſe vp a ſmoke from countre, as it had bene  &#383;moke of a fornace. For whan God de&#383;troyed cities of the region, he thought vpon Abraham, and conueyed Lot out of the cities which he ouerthrew, wherin Lot dwelt.

And Lot departed out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountaynes with both his daughters(for he was afrayed to tary at Zoar) and &#383;o remayned he in a caue wt both his daughters. Then &#383;ayde elder vnto the yonger: Oure father is olde, and there is not a man more vpon earth, that can come in vnto vs after the maner of all the worlde. Come therfore, let vs geue oure father wyne to drynke, and lye with him, that we maye &#383;aue &#383;ede of oure father. So they gaue their father ther wyne to drinke ſame night. And the elder doughter wente in, and laye with hir father: and he perceaued it not, nether when &#383;he laye downe, nether when &#383;he ro&#383;e vp

[[{{style|font-weight:normal;|G}}]]
On the morow the elder &#383;ayde vnto the yonger: Beholde, yeſternight laye I with my father: let vs geue hym wyne to drynke this night alſo: that thou maye&#383;t go in and lye with him, that we maye ſaue &#383;ede of oure father. So they gaue their father wyne
