Here Matthew and Mark do agree not only in the matter, but also almost fully in the form of words. In Matthew gave thanks. Mark hath one word, Blessed: which signifieth in this place all one. And where Matthew ⟨image 5⟩sayeth: Drink ye all of this: Mark sayeth: they all drank of it. And where Matthew sayeth: of this fruit of the vine: Mark leaveth out the word (this) and sayeth, of the fruit of the vine.
Here Matthewe and Marke do agree not only in ye mater, but also almost fully in the forme of wordes. In Matthewe gaue thākes. Marke hathe one worde, Blessed: which signifieth in this place all one. And where Matthewe ⟨image 5⟩sayeth: Drynke ye all of this: Marke sayeth: they al dranke of it. And wher Matthewe sayeth: of this frute of ye vyne: Marke leaueth out ye worde (this) and sayeth, of ye frute of the vyne.

Likewise also when they had supped, he toke the cup, saying: This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
