; is a riuer on the easte side of Ierusalem betweene the same and mounte O∣liuet,* 1.1 which being increased with diuers springs issu∣ing from all partes out of the mountaine,* 1.2 and pooles,* 1.3 ran through the valley of Iosaphat,* 1.4 and Gehennom with a siluer streame, and so passed through the plaines of the wildernesse into the dead sea.
On the bankes of both side this riuer, there grewe
many frutefull trees: the pleasant shew whereof, toge∣ther with the gardens neere adioyning which were watered with the cristall streames of Cedron,* 1.5 greatly delighted the eies and mindes,* 1.6 of such as walked by the same. King Dauid passed ouer this riuer bare foo∣ted,* 1.7 bare headed, and with watery eies, accompanied with his moste trusty frendes, fleeing from the face of his sonne Absolom. Christ also went ouer the same, with his disciples when hee wente to the garden of mount Oliuet.
