How owre lorde apperide to [þe] thre Maries.

Als theis thre Maries ȝede to-gedir be þe waye, owre lorde Ihesu apperide to theme and said: «Hayle ȝe». Þene made þey mekill Ioye, and fell downe & hillede his fete. Thane be-helde they hyme Ententyfely, and askede of hym dyuerse thynges, and reseiued of hyme myghte and grace, and þey mad also gret Ioye & myrthe. Þene bade oure lorde Ihesu þat þey sulde go to his brethire & byde them goo to Galile, for there suld þey see hyme as he tolde þeme be-fore. Be-holde here þat þe mayster of meknes calde his disciples brethire; þis vertue of Mekenesse dwelles euer-more with hyme. Bot if þou will haue vndirstandynge and gostely comforthe of þis þat I haue saide, the nedis to be present in euery stede and euery dede in thy saule as if þou where there sothe-fastely in body; and one þe same manere in that þat I sall say.
