Fear not little flock / for it is your fathers pleasure / to give you a kingdom. Sell that ye have / and give alms. And make you bags / which we ye not old / & treasure that faileth not in heaven / where no these cometh / nether1 moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is / there will your hearts be also.

Let your loins be girded about / & your lights burning / & ye yours selves like unto §E1men / that wait for their master / when he will return from a wedding: that as soon as he cometh & knocketh / they may open unto him. Happy are those servant / which the Lord when he cometh / shall find waking. Verily I say unto you / he will gird him self about / & make them sit down to meat / & walk by / and minister unto them.2
