Alexander then beckened with the hande, and woulde haue excused the matter to the people. 34 But when they knew that he was a Iewe, there arose a shoute almost for the space of two houres, of all men crying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. 35 Then the towne clearke when hee had stayed the people, saide, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is it that knoweth not howe that the citie of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddesse Diana, and of the image, which came downe from Iupiter? 36 Seeing then that no man can speake against these things, ye ought to be appeased, and to doe nothing rashly. 37 For yee haue brought hither these men, which haue neither committed sacrilege, neither doe blaspheme your goddesse. 38 Wherefore, if Demetrius and the craftes men which are with him, haue a matter against any man, the lawe is open, and there are Deputies: let them accuse one another. 39 But if ye inquire any thing cocerning other matters, it may be determined in a lawful assembly. 40 For we are euen in ieopardie to be accused of this dayes sedition, for as much as there is no cause, whereby we may giue a reason of this concourse of people. 41 And when he had thus spoken, hee let the assembly depart.
