God of the substance of the father, begotten before the worlds: & man of the substance of his mother, borne in the world. Perfect God & perffect man: of a reasonable soule, & human flesh subsistinge. Equal to the ffather as touchinge his Godhed: & inferiour to the ffather, touchinge his manhoode. Who although he be God & man: yet is he not too, but one Christ. One not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh: but by takinge of the manhood into God. One altogether, not by confusion of substance: but by unitie of person. for as the reasonable soule & flesh is one mann: soe God & man is one Christ Whoe suffered for our salvation: he descended into hell, rose againe the 3d daie from the dead. [He ascended into heaven, he sitteth on the right hand of the God the Father Almighty, from whence he will come to judge the quick and the dead. ] At whose cominge all men shall rise againe with their bodies: & shall give accompt for their owne worcks. And they that have done good, shall goe into liffe everlastinge: & they that have done evill, into everlastinge fier.

John aunswered them sayenge I baptise with water: but there is one amonge you, whome ye know not, he it is that commeth after me, whose shoe latchet I am not worthy to unloose, these things were done in bethabara, beyond Jordan, where John did baptise.

The tet consists of a substantia! fragment of a version of the !avic!e, or l-M 3$ 63'33, ritten in -ng!ish ith some 'atin invications and shoing interesting variations from the usua! renderings of the tet. The Hebre !etters are heavi!y and inaccurate!y dran, the copyist being evident!y ignorant of their proper form, hi!e on the sea!s and diagrams the siE pointed 6tar of David is in a!most every case rep!aced ith a cross. #n the body of the tet are bib!ica! 8uotations from the Pro!ogue to 6t. JohnKs =ospe!, a variation not recorded in continenta! tets. The parts of the !avic!e on these !eaves concern the e!aborate preparations for invo*ing demons %ith variations on their names+ e.g. eatonay, -!"eph, Terebinthus& and various spe!!s of a !arge!y protective or beneficia! nature QTo ma*e theives standeR. QTo ma*e one fairR. The pages are numbered from 20: to 295, but in a much !ater hand, and as no *non version of the ley of 6o!omon has anything remote!y approaching another to hundred pages, this fragment may be presumed to have been disbound from a misce!!aneous manuscript vo!ume.
