The ground of a certain rich man brought ⟨p. cxix⟩forth fruits plenteously / & he thought in him self saying: what shall I do? because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said: This will I do. I will destroy my barns / and build greater / & therein will I gad der all my fruits / & my goods: & I will say to my soul: Soul thou hast much goods said up in store for many years / take thine case: eat / drink / & be merry. But God said unto him: Thou fool / this night will they fetch away thy soul again from thee. Then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided? So is it with him that gathereth riches / and is not rich in God.

And he spake unto his disciples: Therefore I say unto you: Take no thought for your1 life / what ye shall cate / nether for your body / what ye shall put on. The life is more then meat / and the body is more then raiment. Consider the ravens / for they nether sow nor reap / which nether have storehouse nor bar2 ne / & yet God fedeth them. How much are ye better then the fowls.
