¹³And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.

¹⁴The soudyoures lyke wyse demaunded of hym sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde to them: Do violence to noo man: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: but be content with youre wages.

¹⁵As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:

¹⁶Ihon answered and sayde to them all: I baptyse you with water but a stronger then I cometh after me whose shue latchet I am not worthy to vnlouse: he will baptise you with the holy goost and with fyre:

¹⁷which hath his fanne in his hond and will pourge his floore and will gader the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he bourne with fyre that never shalbe quenched.

¹⁸And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.

¹⁹Then Herode the Tetrach (when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe and for all the evyls which Herod had done)
