⁷Then after that sayd he to his disciples: let us goo into Iewry agayne.

⁸His disciples sayde vnto him. Master the Iewes lately sought meanes to stone the and wilt thou goo thyther agayne?

⁹Iesus answered: are ther not twelve houres in the daye? Yf a man walke in the daye he stombleth not because he seith the lyght of this worlde.

¹⁰But yf a man walke in the nyght he stombleth because ther is no lyght in him.

¹¹This sayde he and after that he sayde vnto the: oure frende Lazarus slepeth but I goo to wake him out of slepe.

¹²Then sayde his disciples: Lorde yf he slepe he shall do well ynough.

¹³How be it Iesus spake of his deeth: but they thought that he had spoke of the naturall slepe.

¹⁴Then sayde Iesus vnto the playnly Lazarus is deed

¹⁵and I am glad for youre sakes that I was not there because ye maye beleve. Neverthelesse let vs go vnto him.

¹⁶Then sayde Thomas which is called Dydimus vnto the disciples: let vs also goo that we maye dye with him.
