1 And he rose from thence and went into ye coostes of Iurie through the region yt is beyonde Iordan. And ye people resorted vnto him afresshe: and as he was wont he taught them agayne.

2 And the pharises came and axed him a question: whether it were laufull for a ma to put awaye his wyfe: to prove him.

3 And he answered and sayd vnto the: what dyd Moses byd you do?

4 And they sayde: Moses suffred to wryte a testimoniall of devorsement and to put hyr awaye.

5 And Iesus answered and sayd vnto the: For ye hardnes of youre hertes he wrote this precept vnto you.

6 But at the fyrste creacion God made the man and woman.
