For as the body is one, and hath yet many membres, neuertheles all the membres of the body though they be many, are yet but one body: euen so Christ also.

For the body also is not one membre, but many.

But now hath God set the membres, euery one seuerally in the body, as it hath pleased him.

But now are the membres many, yet is the body but one.

but rather a greate deale the mebres of the body which seme to be most feble, are most necessary:

For oure honest membres neade it not. But God hath so measured ye body, and geuen most honoure vnto that mebre which had nede,

Laboure for loue. Couet spirituall giftes, but specially that ye maye prophecye.

For he yt speaketh with tunges, speaketh not vnto men, but vnto God: for no man heareth him. Howbeit in ye sprete he speaketh misteries.

But he that prophecieth, speaketh vnto men to edifienge, & to exhortacion, and to coforte.

I wolde that ye all spake with tunges, but rather that ye prophecied. For greater is he that prophecieth, then he that speaketh wt tuges: excepte he also expounde it, that the congregacion maye haue edifienge.
