IEsus sayd to his discyples after a whyle ye shall nat se me & agayne after a whyle ye shall se me. for I go to the father / thē sayde some of hys discyples betwene thē selues / what is this that he sayth vnto vs. After a whyle ye shal nat se me / and agayn after a whyle ye shall se me / & that I go to the father. They sayde therfore what is this that he sayth after a whyle / we can nat tell what he sayth. Iesus {per}ceaued that they wold axe hym / & sayd vnto thē. This is it that ye en¦quyre of bytwene your selues / that I sayde after a whyle ye shal nat se me / & agayne / after a whyle ye shal se me. Uerely verely / I say vnto you / ye shall wepe & lament / and the worlde shal reioyce / ye shal sorowe / but your sorowe shall be turned to ioye / A woman whē she trauayleth hath sorow / bycause her houre is come / but as soone as she is delyuered of the chyld / she remēbreth nomore the anguyss he. for ioy that a man is borne in to the worde. And ye now are in sorowe / but I wyl se you agayn / And your hertes shal reioyse / and youre ioye shal no man take from you.
