St Gregory of Tours, tr. Dalton, 1927

Book 1, 3. Of Enoch the Righteous

Thereafter the whole race of man fell into abominable crimes, save only Enoch the just, who, walking in the ways of God, was by the Lord Himself taken up and delivered from the midst of a sinful people because of his justice. For thus we read: ‘Enoch walked with God: and he was no more seen; for God took him.’1
