¶ On saint Philip & Jacobs day. the epistle.
¶ On saynt Philip & Iacobs daye. ye epistle.
Then shall the righteous stand with great constance against them that vexed them and toke away that they had laboured1 for. When the wicked shall see that they shall ⟨p. cccxcviii⟩be troubled with horrible fear / and shall won der at the sudden & unlooked for victory / & shall say in them selves / repenting & sorrowing for anguish of heart. These be they which we sometime mocked and jested on. We were out of our wits and thought their living madness / and their end to be without honour But behold / how they are counted among the children of God / and have their inheritance among the saints.
THen shall ye ryghteous stonde wt great constance agaynst them yt vexed them and toke awaye that they had laboured1 for. When the wycked shall se that they shal ⟨p. cccxcviii⟩be troubled with horrible feare / and shall wō der at the soden & vnloked for victorye / & shall saye in them selues / repentynge & sorowynge for anguyshe of hert. These be they which we sometyme mocked and iested on. We were oute of oure wyttes and thought their lyuynge madnes / and their ende to be without honoure But beholde / how they are counted amonge the children of God / and have their inherytaunce amonge the sayntes.
