¶ The Pyltel on the cōmemoracion of saynt Pau le the seconde chapiter to the Galathyans. B.
I Certyfye you brothrene / that the gos¦pel whiche was preched of me / was not after the mauer of men / neyther receaued I it of man / neyther was I taught / it but receaued it by the re∣uelacyon of Ies{us} Christ? ye haue her de of my conuersacyō ī tymes past in the Iewes wayes / how that beyōde measure. I {per}se∣cuted the cōgregacyon of god / & spoyled it / & preuay∣led ī the Iewes lawe / aboue many of my cōpanyōs / which were of mine owne nacyō / & was as moch mo¦re feruēt meynteyner of the tradycyōs of the elders / but whē it pleased god / whiche seperated me frō my mothers wōbe / & called me by his grace / for to decla∣re his sone by me that I shulde preache hi amōg the hethē / immediatly I cō••ened nat of the water with fleshe / & blode / neyther returned to Ierusalē to thē which were Apoitels before me / but wēte my wayes ī to Arabia / & came agayne vnto Damascō Thē af∣ter. iij. yere I returned to Ierusalē to se Peter / & aw de with hī. xv. dayes none other of the apostels sawe I / saue Iames the Lordes brother / the thīges which I wryte beholde / god knoweth I lye nat. After that I went in to the costes of Siria & Cilicia / & was vn∣knowē as touchīge my {per}sone••vnto the cōgregacyōs of iewry which were in christ but they herd onely the he which {per}secuted vs ī tyme paste / now precheth the fayth which before he destroyed / and they glorifyed god on my behalfe.
