Chapter I Wolde ye knewe that Christe is the heads of euery manne And the manne is the womans head And god is christes head A manne ought not to couer his heade for asmocke as he is the ymage and glorye of god The womanne is the glory of the manne for the manne is not of the woman but the woman of the man Nether was the man created for the womās sake but the womā for the mās sake For this cause ought the womā to haue power in her head for the angels sakes Yf there be anye among you that lusteth to striue lette him knowe that we no suche custome nether the congregacions of god There muste be sectes amonge you that they whiche are perfecte among you might be knowen The Lorde Iesus the same nyght in whiche he was betrayed toke bread and thanked and brake and sayde Lake ye and eate ye this is my bodye whiche is broken for you This do ye in the remēbraunce of me After the same maner he toke the cuppe when supper was done sayenge This do as ofte as ye dryncke it in the remembraunce of me For as often as ye shall eate this breade and dryncke this cuppe ye shall shewe the Lordes deathe tyll he come Wherefore whosoeuer shall eate of this breade or drinke of the cuppe vnworthely shall be giltie of the bodye and bloude of the LORDE Let a man therfore examine himselfe and so let him eate of the breade and drinke of the cup. For he that eateth or drinketh vnworthelye eateth and drinketh his owne damnacion because he maketh no difference of the lordes body For this cause many are weake and sycke amonge you and many stepe Yf we had truly iudged our selues we shuld not haue bene iudged The .xii.

Chapter BY the grace of god I am that I am and his grace whiche is in me was not in vayne but I laboured more abundantly then they al yet not I but the grace of god which is with me By a man came death and by a man came the resurrection of the dead For as by Adam al dye euen so by Christ shall all be made alyue and euery man in his owne order Malicious speakinges corrupt good maners The body is sowen in corrupcion and ryseth in incorruption It is sowen in dishonour and ryseth in honour It is sowen in weaknes and riseth in power It is sowen a naturall body and ryseth a spirituall bodye Fleshe and bloude cannot inherite the kyngdome of god Neither dothe corruption inherite vncorruption Beholde I shewe you a mistery We shall not all slepe but we shall al be chaunged and that in a moment and in the twinklynge of an eye at the sounde of the last trompe For the trōpe shall blowe and the deade shall ryse incorruptible and we shall be chaunged For this corruptible must put on inc rruptibilite and this mortal must put on immortalitie The .xvi.
