4 And Jhesu seith to hir, What to me and

6 Forsothe ther weren put

8 And Jhesu

and schewide his glorie; and his disciplis
bileueden in to him.
12 Aftir thes thingis

24 Sothli Jhesu him

25 and for it was
not nede to hym, that eny man schulde
bere witnessing of man, sothli he wiste
what was in man.
