And thei weren sclaundrid in hym. 4And Jhesus seide to hem, That a profete is not without onoure, but in his owne cuntrey, and among his kynne, and in his hous. 5And he myyte not do there ony vertu, saue that he helide a fewe sijk men, leiynge on hem hise hoondis. 6And he wondride for the vnbileue of hem.
