    18For Iohn sayd vnto Herod, It is not lawfull for thee to haue thy brothers wife.

    19Therefore Herodias layd waite against him, & would haue killed him, but she could not:

    23And he sware vnto her, Whatsoeuer thou shalt aske of me, I will giue it thee, euen vnto the halfe of my kingdome.

    24So she went forth, & said to her mother, What shal I aske? And she said, Iohn Baptists head.

    25Then she came in straightway with haste vnto the King, & asked, saying, I would that thou shouldest giue me euen now in a charger the head of Iohn Baptist.

    27And immediately the King sent the hangman, and gaue charge that his head shoulde be brought in. So he went and beheaded him in the prison,

    28And brought his head in a charger, and gaue it to the maide, and the maide gaue it to her mother.
