The Cast gate of the Temple, being1 of brass and shut every night, but not without the strength of twenty men, being locked • barred with divers locks and bars, was seen at v•. of the clock at night, and (as Egesippus testifieth) divers nights to open it self without the ⟨image 44⟩hand of men.

But some that were of th• wiser sort, said it was a token that the strength of the Temple should be dissolved without the hand of man, that it might be spoiled of their enemies and destroyed.
