And he said: so is the kingdom of God / ⟨p. li⟩even as if a man should sow seed in ye groū de / & shulde slepe & rise up night & day: and the seed should spring & grow up / he not ware. For the earth bringeth forth fruit of her self: first the blade / then the ears / after that full corn in the ears. And as soon as the fruit is brought forth / anon he thrusteth in the sickle / because the harvest is come.
And he sayde: so is the kyngdome of God / ⟨p. li⟩even as yf a man shuld sowe seede in ye groū de / & shulde slepe & ryse vp night & daye: and the seede shuld springe & growe vp / he not ware. For ye erth bringeth forthe frute of her silfe: fyrst the blade / then the eares / after that full corne in the eares. And as sone as the frute is brought forth / anōne he throusteth in ye sykell / because the hervest is come.
1And he said: where unto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed / which when it is sown in the earth / is the leest of all seeds that be in the earth: but after that it is sown / it groweth up / and is greatest of all herbs: & beareth great bran ches / so that the fowls of the air may dwell under the shadow of it.
1And he sayde: where vnto shall we lykē the kyngdome of God? or with what cōpareson shall we cōpare it? It is lyke a grayne of mustard seed / which when it is sowē in the erth / is the leest of all seedes that be in the erth: but after that it is sowen / it groweth vp / and is greatest of all yerbes: & bereth greate braū ches / so that ye fowles of the ayre maye dwell vnder the shadowe of it.
