IIesus was a castynge out a deuyll / whiche was domme And it foloweth when the deuyl was gone out / the domme spake and the people wondred . Some of them sayd he casteth out deuylles / by the power of Belzebub / the cheyfe of the deuylles & other tempted hym sekynge of hym a sygne from heuen he knewe theyr thoughtes and sayde vn to them . Euery kyngdome at debate wythin it selfe shall be desolate And one house shall fall vpon an other . So if Sathan be deuyded with in hym selfe / how shal his kyngdome endure / because ye saye that I cast out deuylles by the power of Belzebub / if I by the power of belzebub caste oute deuyls / by whose power / do youre chyldren caste them oute Therfore shal they be your iudges / But if I with the fynger of god caste out deuylles / no doubte / the kyngdome of god is come vpon you when a strong man armed watched hys house . That he possesseth / is in peace but when a stronger then he commeth vpon hym / and ouercommeth hym he taketh from hym his harneys wherin he trusted / and diuydeth his goodes he that is nat with me is agaynst me / and he that gathereth nat with me scattereth when the vncleane spirite is gone out of a mand / he walketh through waterlese places sekyng rest / and when he fyndeth none / he sayeth I wyl ceturne agayne vnto my house when se I came out / and when he commeth / he fyndeth it swept and garnysshed . Then goeth he and taketh seuen other spirytes with hym worse then hym selfe & they entre in & dwell there . and the ende of the man is worse then the begynnyng . It fortuned as he thus spake a certayn woman of the company lyfte vp her voyce / and sayd vnto hym / happy is the wombe that bare the & the pappes which gaue the sucke / & he sayd happy are they that beare the worde of god & kepe it .

Brethren it is wrytten / that abraham had two sones the one by a bonde mayde / the other by a fre woman ye & he which was of the bond woman was borne after the flesshe but he which was of the free woman was borne by ꝓmyse which thynges betoken mistery for these women are two Testamentes the one from the mounte . Syna / which gendreth vnto bondage / whiche is Agar / for mounte Syna is called Agar / in Arabia / & bordreth vpon the cyte whiche is now Ierusalem / & is in bondage with her chyldren . But Ierusalem whiche is aboue / is free whiche is the mother of vs all / for it is wrytten / reioyce thou bareyn that bearest no chryldren / breke forth & cry thou that trauaylest nat / for the desolate hath many mo chyldrene then she whiche hath an husbande . Brethren we are after the maner of Isaac chyldren of promyse / but as then he that was borne carnally / persecuted him that was borne spiritually . Euen so is it now / neuerthelesse what sayeth the scripture . Cast awaye the bond woman & her sone / for the sone of the bond woman shal nat be heyre with the sone of the free woman So then brethren : we are nat chyldrene of the bounde woman but of the free woman .

Al this was done that the scriptures of the ꝓphetes myght be fulfylled . Then all the dyscyples forsoke hym : and fledde .

Then let he Barrabas lose vnto them / & scourgede iesus & delyuered hym to be crucifyed . Then the souldyours of the debite toke Iesus vnto the commen hal . And gathered vnto hym al the company / & they stripped hym / & put on hym a purple robe . And platted a crowne of thornes / and put vppon his hedde / and a rede in his ryght hande . And bowed theyr kenees before hym and mocked hym / sayenge / Hayle kynge of the Iewes / & spytted on hym / and toke the rede & smote hym on the hed .

They deuydede my garmentes amonge them / & vpon my vesture dyd caste lottes & they sate and watched hym there / & they set vp ouer his hed the cause of hys deth wrytten . This is the kynge of the Iewes / and there were two theues crucifyed with hym / one on the ryght hande / & another on the lefte .

That same also the theues whiche were crucifyed with hym / caste in his teeth / from the syxt houre was there darkenes ouer all the land vnto the nynth houre .

She set her fingers to the splēdle & her handes caughte holde on the dystaffe . She opened herhāde to the poore / & stretched out her handes to the nedye . she feared not lest the cold of snowe shulde hurte her house / for al her houshold were double clothed . She made her gay ornamentes / of byce / & purple was her apparell . Her husbande was hadde in honoure in the gates / as he sate with the elders of the lande . She made lynnen & solde it / & deliuered a girdle to the merchaunt Strength & glory were her rayment / & she laughed in the later dayes . She opened her mouth with wysdome & the lawe of ryghteousnes was on her tonge . She had an eye to her housholde & eate nat bread ydly . Her chyldren arose & blyssed her / & her husbande commended her . many doughters haue done excellently but thou haste passed them al. Fauoure is a deceauable thynge / & beautye is vanyte / but a woman that feareth god / she shal be praised Gyue her of the fruite of her handes / & let her workes prayse her in the gates .

Remember my sayinge that I sayde vnto you / the seruaunte is nat greater then his lorde / if they haue persecuted me / so wyl they persecute you / if they haue kepte my sayinge / so wyll they kepe yours / but al these thynges wyl they do vnto you / for my namis sake bicause they haue nat knowen hym that sente me . yf I had nat come & spoken vnto them / they shulde haue had synne / but nowe haue they nothynge to cloke theyr synne / with all . He that hateth me / haeth my father yf I had nat done workes amōgeth whiche none other mandyd / they had natte sene but nowe haue they sene / & yet haue hared both me and my father / euen that the sayinge myght be fulfylled that is written in theyr law They hated me without a cause .

BRethren remembre ye nat that youre bodyes are the membres of Chryste / shal I nowe take the membres of Chryste / and make them the membres of an harlot ? God for byd . Do ye nat vnderstande that he whiche coupled hym selfe with an harlot / is become one body / for two ( sayeth he ) shall be one fleshe / but he that is ioyned vnto the lorde / is one spirite fle fornicacyon . Al synnes that a man doth / are without the body but he that is a fornicator / synneth agaynst his owne body . Know nat ye howe that youre bodyes are the temple of the holy gost / whiche is in you whom ye haue of god / and howe that ye are nat your owne / for ye are derely bought . Therfore gloryfye ye in god in youre bodies & in youre spyrytes / for they are goddes .

Let no man therfore put asonder that whiche god hath coupled togyther .
