Like as he showed his true hands and his true sides, so did he truly eat with them, went truly with Cleophas, spake to them truly with his mouth, sate truly at the table with them at supper, toke the bread with his true hands, gave thanks, brake it and reached it them. And whereas he immediately vanished out of their sight, that is ascribed to the power of God, and to no fantasy or false body. When he, afore his resurrection, was brought out from Nazareth, that they might throw him down from the top of the hill; he passed through the midst of them, that is, he escaped out of their hands.

Howe sayest thou, did not they know him in the way, when he yet ⟨p. 148⟩had the body, that he had afore? Upon this hear the scripture: their eyes were holden, that they should not know him. But was he any other when they knew him not, or was he any other when they knew him? Verily he was alway one and like himself.
