to the damsel and she brought it to her mother and his disciples came and took up the body and buried it and went and told Jesus when Jesus heard that John was beheaded he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart and when the people had heard of him they followed him on foot out of the Cities and Jesus went forth and saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion toward them and he healed their sick and when it was evening his disciples came to him saying this is a desert place and the time is now past send the multitude away that they may go into the Villages and buy themselves Victuals but Jesus said unto them they need not depart but <​give​> ye them to eat and they say unto him we have here but five loaves and two fishes he said bring them hither to me and he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass and <​he​> took the five loaves and the two fishes and looking up to heaven he blessed and break and gave the loaves to the disciples and the disciples to the multitude and they did all eat and were filled and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve basketsfull and they that had eaten were about five thousand men besides women and children and straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship and to go before to <​him unto​> the other side while he sent the multitudes away and when he had sent the multitudes away he went up into a mountain apart to pray and when the evening was come he was there alone but the ship was now in the midst of the sea tossed with the waves for the wind was contrary and in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them walking on the sea and when the disciples saw him walking on the sea they were troubled saying it is a spirit and they cried of out for fear but straightway Jesus spake unto them saying be of good cheer it is I be not affraid and Peter answered him and said lord if it be thou bid me come unto thee on the watter and he said come and when Peter was come down out of the ship he walked on the watter to go [p. 37]
