¶ Luke.
Lucas was Pauls companion / at the least way from the .xvi. of the acts forth & with him in all his tribulation. And he went with paul at his last going up to Jerusalem. And from thence he followed paul to Caesarea / where he lay two year in prison And from Caesarea he went with paul to Rome where he lay two other years in prison. And he was with Paul when he wrote to the Colossians / as he testifieth in the fourth chapter saying: the beloved Lucas the physician saluteth you. And he was with paul when he wrote the second pistle to Timothy / as he saith in the fourth chapter saying: Only Lucas is with me. Whereby ye see the authority of the man and of what credence & reverence his writing is worthy of / & thereto of whom he learned the story of his gospel / as he him self saith / how that he learned it & searched it out with all diligence of them that saw it and were also partakers ⟨image 11⟩at the doing. And as for the acts of the apostles / he him self was at the doing of them (at the least) of the most part / & had his part therein / and therefore wrote of his own experience.
