Par 

52 Then Iesus sayde vnto the hye prestes and rulers of the temple and the elders which were come to him. Be ye come out as vnto a thefe with sweardes and staves?

53 When I was dayly with you in the teple ye stretched not forth hondes agaynst me. But this is even youre very houre and the power of darcknes.

54 Then toke they him and ledde him and brought him to the hye prestes housse. And peter folowed a farre of.

55 When they had kyndled a fyre in the middes of the palys and were set doune to geder Peter also sate doune amonge them.

56 And wone of the wenches behelde him as he sate by the fyer and set good eyesight on him and sayde: this same was also with him.

57 Then he denyed hym sayinge: woman I knowe him not

58 And after a lytell whyle another sawe him and sayde: thou arte also of them. And Peter sayd man I am not.

59 And aboute the space of an houre after another affirmed sayinge: verely even this felowe was with hym for he is of Galile

60 and Peter sayde: ma I woote not what thou sayest. And immediatly whyll he yet spake the cocke crewe.

61 And the Lorde tourned backe and loked apon Peter. And Peter remembred the wordes of the Lorde how he sayde vnto him before ye cocke crowe thou shalt denye me thryse.

62 And Peter went out and wepte bitterly.

63 And the men that stode about Iesus mocked him and smoote him

64 and blyndfolded him and smoote his face. And axed him sayinge: arede who it is that smoote ye?

65 And many other thinges despytfullye sayd they agaynst him.

66 And assone as it was daye the elders of the people and the hye prestes and scribes came to gedder and ledde him into their counsell sayinge:

67 arte thou very Christ? tell vs. And he sayde vnto the: yf I shall tell you ye will not beleve

68 And yf also I axe you ye will not answere me or let me goo.

69 Herafter shall the sonne of man sit on the ryght honde of the power of God.

70 Then sayde they all: Arte thou then the sonne of God? He sayd to them: ye saye yt I am.

71 Then sayde they: what nede we eny further witnes? We oure selves have herde of his awne mouthe.
