Adam and Eve in the garden with the serpent and the tree (upper register); Cain and Abel make burnt sacrifice in the lower register. God's hand blesses Abel's sacrifice, and fire from heaven shows God's displeasure with Cain. Yale Ms. 229, F 253r.

On the rock, Perceval is visited by the devil in the guise of a damsel in a black ship (219r.a.40-b.l3-38).
