1But blessed are your eyes / for they see: & your ears / for they hear. Verily I say unto you / that many Prophets & perfect men have desired to see tho things which ye see / & have not seen them: & to hear tho things which ye hear / & have not heard them. 2Hear ye therefore the similitude of the sower. Whosoever heareth the word of the kingdom / & understandeth it not / there cometh the evil man & catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. And this is he which was sown by the way side. But he that was sown in the stony ground / is he which heareth the word of God / & anon with joy receiveth it / yet hath he no rot in him self / & therefore dureth but a season: for as soon as tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word / by & by he falleth.

He which is sown in the good ground / is ⟨image 36⟩he that heareth the word & understandeth it / which also beareth fruit & bringeth forth / some an .C. fold / some sixty fold / & some .xxx. fold.
