After this I loked and beholde a dore was open in heven and the fyrste voyce which I harde was as it were of a trompet talkinge with me which said: come vp hydder and I will shewe the thynges which must be fulfyllyd hereafter

And immediatly I was in the sprete: and beholde a seate was put in heven and one sate on the seate.

And he that sat was to loke apo like vnto a iaspar stone and a sardyne stone: And there was a rayne bowe aboute the seate in syght lyke to an Emeralde.

And aboute the seate were.xxiiii. seates. And upon the seates.xxiiii. elders syttinge clothed in whyte rayment and had on their heddes crounes of gold.

And out of the seate proceded lightnynges and thundrynges and voyces and there wer vii. lampes of fyre burninge before ye seate which are the vii. sprettes of God.

And before the seate there was a see of glasse lyke vnto cristall and in the myddes of the seate and rounde aboute the seate were iiii. bestes full of eyes before and behynde.

And the fyrste best was lyke a lion the seconde best lyke a calfe and ye thyrde beste had a face as a man and the fourthe beste was like a flyinge egle.

And the iiii. bestes had eche one of them vi. wynges aboute him and they were full of eyes with in. And they had noo reste daye nether nyght sayinge: holy holy holy LORde god almyghty which was and is and is to come.

And when those beestes gave glory and honour and thankes to him that sat on the seate which lyveth for ever and ever:

the xxiiii. elders fell doune before him that sat on the trone and worshipped him that lyveth for ever and caste their crounes before the trone sayinge:

thou arte worthy LORde to receave glory and honoure and power for thou haste created all thinges and for thy wylles sake they are and were created.
