unsheathing its sword over him. Thus in one

Memory Verses. 9-l3.
! l Now the serpent was more subtitle than
| any beast of the field which the LORD God
| had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea,
| hath God said Ye shall not eat of every tree
of the garden
And the woman said unto the serpent, We
may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
| But of the fruit of the tree which is in the
midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall
not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest we
| die.
| And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye
| shall not surely die;
| For God doth know that in the day ye
eat thereof then your eyes shall be opened,
and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and
| evil.
| And when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food, and thatit was pleasant to
the eyes, and tree to be desired to make
one wise, she took of the fruit thereof
and did eat, and gave also unto her husband
with her; and he did eat.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened
and they knew that they were naked and
they sewed fig leaves together, and made
themselves aprons.
And they heard the voice of the LORD
God walking in the garden in the cool of the
day and Adam and his wife hid themselves
from the presence of the LORD God amongst
the trees of the garden.
And the LORD God called unto Adam and
said unto him, Where art thou?
10 And he said, / heard thy voice in the
| garden land was afraid, because l was ma
'ked and hid myself.
| l. And he said, Who told thee that thou
vast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree,
whereof I commanded thee that thou
| shouldest not eat?
II And the man said. The woman whom
| thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of
| the tree, and did eat.
| 13 And the LORD God said unto the woman
| What is this that thou hast done? And the
| woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and
| eat.
| IA And the LORD God said unt2 the serpent
| Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed
above all cattle, and above every beast of the
field upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust
shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
| l5 And will put enmity between thee and
| the woman, and between thy seed and her
seeti it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt
brrise his heel.

LESSON HYMN. L. NJ.
Lord. we are vile, conceived in sin,
And born unholy and unclean;
| Sprung from the man whose guilty fall
Corrupts his race, and taints us all.
Soon as we draw our infant breath
The seeds of sin grow up for death
Thy law demands a perfect heart
Be we're defiled in every part.
Jesus thy blood, thy blood alone
Hath power sufficient to atone;
Thy blood can make us white as snow:
No Jewish types could cleanse us so.
