vnto them, Shall I crucifie your king? The high Priestes answered, We haue no king but Ceasar. Then deliuered. he him to them to bee crucified. And they tooke Iesus, and led him away. And he bare his crosse, and went forth into a place which is called the place of dead mens skuls, but in Hebrewe Golgotha, where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Iesus in the middest.
