ANd as he went out of the tēple one of* 1.1 his disciples sayde vnto him: Master / [ A] se what stones / and what byldynges are here. And Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Seist thou these greate byldinges? The¦re shall not be leefte one stone vpon a ano∣ther

/ that shall not be throwen doune.
And as he sate on moūte olivete / over agēst the tēple / Peter / & Iames / & Iohn / & Andrew axed him secretly: tell vs / when shall these thing{is} be? And what is ye signe whē all these thinges shalbe fulfilled? And Iesus answe∣red thē / & begā to saye: take hede lest eny man* 1.2 deceave you. For many shall come in my name sayinge: I am Christ / & shall deceave many.
When ye shall heare of warre and tydinge of warre / be ye not troubled. For soche thin∣ges muste nedes be. But the ende is not yet. For ther shall nacion aryse agaynste nacion / and kyngdome agaynst kyngdome. And ther shalbe erth quakes in all quarters / & famysh∣ment and troubles. These are the begynnyn¦ge of sorowes.
But take ye hede to youre selves. For they [ B] shall bringe you vp to ye counsels & into y• sy∣nagoges / and ye shalbe beaten: ye and shalbe brought before rulers & kynges for my sake / for a testimoniall vnto them. And the gospell must fyrste be publysshed amōge all nacions.
But when they leade you and present you / * 1.3 toke noo thought afore honde what ye shall saye / nether ymagion: but whatsoever is gevē you at the same tyme / that speake. For it shall* 1.4 not be ye that shall speake / but ye holy goost. Ye and the brother shall delyvre the brother to deeth / & the father the sonne / & the chyldrē shall ryse agaynste their fathers & mothers / & shall put them to deeth. And ye shalbe ha∣ted of all men for my names sake. But who∣soever
shall endure vnto the ende / the same shalbe safe.
Moreover whē ye se the abhominaciō that [ C] * 1.5 betokeneth desolacion / wherof is spoken by Daniel the Prophet / stonde where it ought not / let him that redeth vnderstonde. Then let them that be in Iurie / fle to the mountay∣nes. And let him that is on the housse toppe / not descende doune into the housse / nether en¦tre therin / to fetche eny thinge oute of his housse. And let hym that is in the felde / not tourne backe agayne vnto the thinges which he leeft behynde him / for to take his cloothes with him. Woo is then to them that are wt chylde / & to them that geve soucke in thoose dayes. But praye / that youre flyght be not in the wynter. For ther shalbe in those dayes su¦che tribulacion / as was not from the begyn∣ninge* 1.6 of creatures which God created / vnto this tyme / nether shalbe. And excepte y• the* 1.7 Lorde shuld shorten those dayes / no mā shuld be saved. But for the electes sake / which he hath chosen / he hath shortened those dayes.
And then / y•• ••ny man saye to you: loo / here* 1.8 is Christ: loo / he is there / beleve not. For fal∣••e Christes shall aryse / and falce Prophetes and shall shewe myracles and wondres / to deceave yf it were possible / evyn the electe. But take ye hede: beholde I have shewed you* 1.9 all thinges before.
Moreover in thoose dayes / after that tribu¦laciō / the sunne shall wexe darke / and the mo∣ue shall not geve her light / and the starres of
heven shall fall: and the powers wich are in heven / shall move. And then shall they se the [ D] sonne of man cōmynge in the cloudes / with greate power and glory. And then shall he sen¦de his angels / and shall gaddre to gedder his electe from the fower wyndes / and from the one ende of the worlde to the other.
Learne a similitude of ye fygge tree. When* 1.10 his braunches are yet tender / & hath brought forthe leves / ye knowe that sommer is neare. So in lyke maner when ye se these thinges come to passe: vnderstond / that it ys nye even at the dores. Verely I saye vnto you / yt this generacion shall not passe / tyll all these thin∣ges be done. Heven and erth shall passe / but* 1.11 my wordes shall not passe. But of the daye & the houre knoweth no mā: no not the angels which are in heven: nether the sonne him sil∣fe / save the father only.
Take hede / watche & praye / for ye knowe* 1.12 not when the tyme ys. As a man which is go¦ne in to a straunge countrey / & hath lefte hys housse / and geven auctorite to his servaūtes / and to every man hys worke / and commaun∣ded the porter to watche. Watche therfore / for ye knowe not when the master of ye hous∣se will come / whether at evē or at mydnyght / whether at the cocke crowynge or in the dau∣nynge: left yf he come sodenly / he shuld fynde you slepynge. And that I saye vnto you / I saye vnto all men / watche.
