¶ The .xi. Chapter.

ANd when they came nye to Hierusalem [ A] * 1.1 vnto Bethphage & Bethanie / besydes moūt olivete / he sent forth two of his hisciples / & sayde vnto thē: Goo youre wayes into the toune that is over agaynst you. And assone as ye be entred into it / ye shall fynde a* 1.2 coolte bounde / wheron never man sate: loose him & bringe him. And if eny man saye vnto you: why do ye soo? Saye that the Lorde hath neade of him: & streight waye he will sende him hidder. And they wēt their waye / & foūd a coolte tyed by the dore with out in a place where two wayes met / & they losed him. And divers of thē that stode there / sayde vnto thē: what do ye loosinge y^e coolte? And they sayd* 1.3 vnto them evē as Iesus had cōmaunded thē. And they let them goo. And they brought y^• coolte to Iesus / & caste their garmēte on him: and he sate vpō him. And many sprede there garmētes in the waye. Other cut doune braū¦ches of the trees / & strawed them in y^e waye. And they y^t went before & they that folowed / cryed sayinge: Hosanna: blessed be he that cō¦meth* 1.4 in y^e name of y^e Lorde. Blessed be y^e king¦dome that cōmeth in y^e name of him y^t is Lor∣de of oure father David. Hosanna in y^e hyest.

And y^e Lorde entred in to Ierusalem / & into [ B] * 1.5 the tēple. And when he had loked roūdabout vpon all thing{is} / & now y^e evē tyde was come / he went out vnto Bethany / with y^e twelve. And on the morowe when they were come out frō Bethany / he hungred / & spyed a fygge* 1.6 tree a farre of havinge leves / & wēt to se whe∣ther

he myght finde eny thinge ther on. But when he came therto / he foūde no thinge but leves: for the tyme of fygges was not yet. And Iesus answered and sayde to it: never man eate frute of the here after whill y^e worl¦de stondith. And his disciples hearde it.

And they came to Ierusalem. And Iesus wēt into the tēple / & begāne to cast out y^e sel∣lers* 1.7 & byers in the tēple / & overthrewe the ta∣bles of the money chaungers / and the stoles of them that solde doves: & wolde not suf∣fre that eny man caried a vessell thorow the temple. And he taught sayinge vnto them / is it not written: my housse shalbe called the* 1.8 housse of prayer vnto all nacions? But ye ha∣ve made it a deen of theves.

And the Scribes & hye prestes hearde yt & [ C] sought howe to distroye him. For they feared him / because all the people marveled at his doctrine. And when evē was come / he went out of the cite. And in the mornynge as they* 1.9 passed by / they sawe the fygge tree dryed vp by y^e rotes. And Peter remembred / & sayde vn to him: master / beholde / the fygge tree which thou cursedest / is widdred awaye. And Iesus answered / & sayde vnto them: Have confidēs in God. ✚ Verely I saye vnto you / that who soever shall saye vnto this mountayne: take awaye thy silfe / & cast thy silfe in to the see / & shall not waver in his herte / but shall beleve y^• those thinges which he sayeth shall come* 1.10 to passe / what soever he sayeth / shalbe done to him. Therfore I saye vnto you / what soe∣ver

ye desyre when ye praye / beleve y^t ye shall have it / & it shalbe done vnto you. And when ye stōd & praye / forgeve / yf ye have eny thinge agaynste eny man / y^t youre father also which is in hevē / maye forgeve you youre trespases.

And they came agayne to Hierusalem. And [ D] as he walked in the tēple / ther came to him y^e* 1.11 hye prestes / & the Scribes / and the elders / & sayd vnto him: by what auctorite doest thou these thinges? & who gave the this auctorite / to do these thinges? Iesus answered & sayde vnto them: I will also axe of you a certayne thinge: & answere ye me / & I wyll tell you by* 1.12 what auctorite I do these thinges. The bap∣tyme of Iohn / was it from heven or of men? Answer me. And they thought in them sel∣ves sayinge: yf we shall saye from heven: he will saye why then dyd ye not beleve him? but if we shall saye / of mē: then feare we y^e peo¦ple. For all men counted Iohn / that he was a verie Prophete. And they answered & sayd vn to Iesu: we cannot tell. And Iesus answered & sayd vnto them: nether wyll I tell you / by what auctorite I do these thynges. ⊢
