Now Mark speaketh it thus, And as they ate. Jesus took bread, blessed and brake, 1and gave to them, and said. Take eat, This is my body. And he toke the cup, gave thanks and gave it them, and they all drank of it, and he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many. Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink that new in the kingdom of God.

Here Matthew and Mark do agree not only in the matter / but also almost fully in the form of words. Saving that for these words in Matthew (gave thanks) Mark hath one word (blessed) which signifieth in this place all one. And where Matthew saith (drink ye all of this) Mark saith: and they all drank of it. And where Matthew saith (of this fruit of the vine) Mark leaveth out the word (this) and saith / of the fruit of the vine.
Here Matthew and Marke doo agree not onely in the matter / but also allmost fullye in the fourme of wordes. Sauing that for thies wordes in Mathew (gaue thankes) Marke hath one word (blessed) which signefieth in this place al one. And wher Mathew saithe (drinke ye al of this) Marke saith: and they all dranke of it. And wher Matthew saithe (of this fruyte of the vyne) Marke leaueth owt the worde (this) and saith / of the fruyte of the vyne.
