²⁷And anoon hise disciplis camen, and wondriden, that he spak with the womman; netheles no man seide to hym, What sekist thou, or, What spekist thou with hir?

²⁸Therfor the womman lefte hir watir pot, and wente in to the citee, and seide to tho men,

²⁹Come ye, and se ye a man, that seide to me alle thingis that Y haue don; whether he be Crist?

³⁰And thei wenten out of the citee, and camen to hym.

³¹In the mene while hise disciplis preieden hym, and seiden, Maistir, ete.

³²But he seide to hem, Y haue mete to ete, that ye knowen not.

³³Therfor disciplis seiden togidir, Whether ony man hath brouyt him mete to ete?

³⁴Jhesus seith to hem, My mete is, that Y do the wille of hym that sente me, that Y perfourme the werk of hym.

³⁵Whether ye seien not, that yit foure monethis ben, and rype corn cometh? Lo! Y seie to you, lifte vp youre iyen, and se ye the feeldis, for now thei ben white to repe.

³⁶And he that repith takith hire, and gaderith fruyt in to euerlastynge lijf; that bothe he that sowith, and he that repith, haue ioye togidere.

³⁷In this thing is the word trewe, for anothir is that sowith, and anothir that repith.

³⁸Y sente you to repe, that that ye `haue not trauelid; `othere men han trauelid, and ye han entrid `in to her trauels.

³⁹And of that citee many Samaritans bileueden in hym, for the word of the womman, that bare witnessyng, That he seide to me alle thingis that Y haue don.

⁴⁰Therfor whanne Samaritans camen to hym, thei preieden hym to dwelle there; and he dwelte there twey daies.

⁴¹And many mo bileueden for his word,

⁴²and seiden to the womman, That now not for thi speche we bileuen; for we han herd, and we witen, that this is verili the sauyour of the world.

⁴³And aftir twei daies he wente out fro thennus, and wente in to Galilee.

⁴⁴And he bar witnessyng, that a profete in his owne cuntre hath noon onour.
