The Second Book of Adam and Eve · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1When Seth heard these words he was amazed, and inclined his heart to Satan's treacherous speech, and said to him, "Saidst thou there is an-other world created than this; and other creatures more beautiful than the creatures that are in this world?"

2And Satan said "Yes; behold thou hast heard me; but I will yet praise them and their ways, in thy hearing."

3But Seth said to him, "Thy speech has amazed me; and thy beautiful description of it all."

4"Yet I cannot go with thee to-day; not until I have gone to my father Adam and to my mother Eve, and told them all thou hast said to me. Then if they give me leave to go with thee, I will come."

5Again Seth said, "I am afraid of doing any thing without my father's and mother's leave, lest I perish like my brother Cain, and like my father Adam, who transgressed the commandment of Elohim (God). But, behold, thou knowest this place; come, and meet me here to-morrow."

That is the first paragraph of The Second Book of Adam and Eve 6
