Matthew 14:5-15

5 And when he wold have put him to deeth he feared the people because they counted him as a prophet.
6 But when Herodes birth daye was come the doughter of Herodias daunsed before them and pleased Herod.
7 Wherfore he promised wt an oth that he wolde geve hir whatsoever she wolde axe.
8 And she beinge informed of her mother before sayde: geve me here Ihon baptistes heed in a platter.
9 And ye kynge sorowed. Neverthelesse for his othes sake and for their sakis which sate also at ye table he comaunded yt to be geven hir:
10 and sent and beheeded Ihon in the preson
11 and his heed was brought in a platter and geven to the damsell and she brought it to her mother.
12 And his disciples came and toke vp his body and buryed it: and went and tolde Iesus.
13 When Iesus hearde that he departed thence by shippe in to a desert place out of ye waye. And when the people had hearde therof they folowed him afote out of their cities.
14 And Iesus went forth and sawe moche people and his herte did melte vpon them and he healed of them those that were sicke.
15 When even was come his disciples came to him sayinge. This is a deserte place and the daye is spent: let the people departe yt they maye go into ye tounes and bye them vytayllis.
