Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken; for out of the serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
Al thou Filistea, be not glad, for þe yerde of thi smytere is maad lesse; for whi a cocatrice schal go out of þe roote of an eddre, and his seed schal soupe up a brid.
