He took his text from the nineteenth

him where he had all that was necessary

but man became lonesome. Then God put
him to sleep. and while he was asleep
drew forth from his side a rib. or this
rib he created Eve, who was to be the
companion and wife Of Adam. There were
many things in the Garden OF Ecen-thts
place OF happiness. There were the beasts
Of the forrest and the fowls OF the air,
and many beautiful flowers ana trees.
There was also a tree in the midst OF the
garden called the tree OF knowledge and

Eve was a woman and she was, there
