Then must come the Saviour, clothed in a dalmatic, and Adam and Eve
be brought before him. Adam is to wear a red tunic and Eve a
woman's robe of white, with a white silk cloak; and they are both
to stand before the Figure (_God_), Adam the nearer with composed
countenance, while Eve appears somewhat more modest. And the Adam
must be well trained when to reply and to be neither too quick nor

Glancing through the story we find that Adam and Eve are led into
Paradise, God first giving them counsel as to what they shall and shall
not do, and then retiring into the church. The happy couple are allowed
a brief time in which to demonstrate their joy in the Garden. Then Satan
approaches from Hell and draws Adam into conversation over the barrier.
His attempt to lure Adam to his Fall is vain, nor is he more successful
the first time with Eve. But as a serpent he over-persuades her to eat
of the forbidden fruit, and she gives it to Adam, with the well-known
result. In his guilt Adam now withdraws out of sight, changes his red
tunic for a costume contrived out of leaves, and reappears in great
grief. God enters from the church and, after delivering his judgment
upon the crime, drives Adam and Eve out of Eden. With spade and hoe they
pass under the curse of labour on the second stage, toiling there with
most disappointing results (Satan sows tares in their field) until the
end comes. Let the manuscript speak for itself again:

Then shall come the Devil and three or four devils with him,
