Handle me and se: for spretes have not flesshe and bones as ye se me have. 40 And when he had thus spoken he shewed them his hondes and his fete. 41 And whyll they yet beleved not for ioye and wondred he sayde vnto the: Have ye here eny meate? 42 And they gave him a pece of a broyled fisshe and of an hony combe. 43 And he toke it and ate it before them. 44 And he sayde vnto the.
