I beseech you brethren in the name of our lord Jesus Christ / that ye all speak one thing & that there be no dissension among you: but be ye knit together in one mind & in one meaning. It is showed unto me (my brethren) of you by them that are of the house of Chloe / that there is strife among you. And this is it that I mean: how that commonly among you / one sayeth: I hold of Paul: another I hold of Apollo: the third I hold of Cephas: y• four the I hold of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? ether were ye baptised in that name of Paul? I thank God that I christened none of you / but Crispus & Gaius / lest any should say that I had baptised in mine own name. I baptised also the house of Stephana. Furthermore know I not whether I baptised any man or no.

Forthermore knowe I not whether I baptised eny man or no.
For Christ sent me not to baptise / but to §C1preach y• gospel / not with wisdom of words / lest the cross of Christ should have been made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness: but unto ⟨p. ccxl⟩
