But the Jews did not believe of the fellow / how §Dthat he was blind & received his sight / until they had called the father and mother of him that had received his sight. And they axed them saying: Is this your son / whom ye say was borne blind? How doth he now see then? His father & mother answered ⟨image 156⟩them & said: we wot well that this is our son / and that he was borne blind: but by what means he now seeth / that can we not tell / or who hath opened his eyes / can we not tell. He is old enough / axe him / let him answer for him self. Such words spake his father and mother / because they feared §Ethe Jews. For the Jews had conspired all ready that if any man did confess that he was Christ / he should be excommunicate out of the synagogue. Therefore said his father and mother: he is old enough / axe him.
