For the kinge of Gaza shall perish, and at Ascalon shal no man dwel. ⁶ Straugers shall dwel at A?dod, & as for ye pryde of ye Philistynes, I shal rote it out. ⁷ Their bloude will I take awaye from their mouth, and their abhominacios from amonge their teth.

The corne shall make the yongemen chearefull, and the new wyne the maydens.

Who shal declare his generacion? for his life is taken awaye from the earth. ³⁴ Then answered the chamberlayne vnto Philippe, and sayde: I praye the, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himselfe, or of some other man? ³⁵ Philippe opened his mouth, and beganne at this scripture, and preached him the Gospell of Iesus. ³⁶ And as they wete on their waye, they came to a water.
