1 The Elder vnto the beloven Gayus whom I love in ye trueth.

2 Beloved I wisshe in all thinges that thou prosperedest and faredest well eve as thy soule prospereth.

3 I reioysed greatly when the brethren came and testified of the trueth that is in the how thou walkest in trouthe.

4 I have no greater ioye then for to heare howe that my sonnes walke in veritie.

5 Beloved thou doest faythfully what soever thou doest to the brethren and to straungers

6 which bare witnes of thy love before all the congregacion. Which brethren whe thou bryngest forwardes on their iorney (as it besemeth god) thou shalt do well:

7 because that for his names sake they went forth and toke nothinge of the gentyls.

8 We therfore ought to receave soche that we also myght be helpers to the trueth.
