But the fruyt of the spirit is charite, ioye, pees, pacience, long abidyng,

But ech man preue his owne werk, and so he schal haue glorie in him silf, and not in an othere.

for tho thingis that a man sowith, tho thingis he schal repe. For he that sowith in his fleisch, of the fleisch he schal repe corrupcioun; but he that sowith in the spirit, of the spirit he schal repe euerelastynge lijf.

Therfor while we han tyme, worche we good to alle men; but most to hem that ben homliche of the feith.

For nether thei that ben circumcidid kepen the lawe; but thei wolen that ye be circumcidid, that thei haue glorie in youre fleisch.

But fer be it fro me to haue glorie, no but in the crosse of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, bi whom the world is crucified to me, and Y to the world.

For in Jhesu Crist nether circumcisioun is ony thing worth, ne prepucie, but a newe creature.

aboue ech principat, and potestat, and vertu, and domynacioun, and aboue ech name that is named, not oneli in this world, but also in the world to comynge;

but God, that is riche in merci, for his ful myche charite in which he louyde vs,

But now in Crist Jhesu ye that weren sum tyme fer, ben maad nyy in the blood of Crist.

Therfor now ye ben not gestis and straungeris, but ye ben citeseyns of seyntis, and houshold meine of God;

But to ech of vs grace is youun bi the mesure of the yyuyng of Crist;

But what is it, that he stiede vp, no but that also he cam doun first in to the lowere partis of the erthe?

But do we treuthe in charite, and wexe in him by alle thingis, that is Crist oure heed;

But ye han not so lerud Crist, if netheles ye herden hym,

He that stal, now stele he not; but more trauele he in worchinge with hise hondis that that is good, that he haue whereof he schal yyue to nedi.

Ech yuel word go not of youre mouth; but if ony is good to the edificacioun of feith, that it yyue grace to men that heren.

ethir filthe, or foli speche, or harlatrye, that perteyneth not to profit, but more doyng of thankyngis.

For ye weren sum tyme derknessis, but now `ye ben liyt in the Lord. Walke ye as the sones of liyt.

And nyle ye comyne to vnfruytouse werkis of derknessis; but more repreue ye.
