| of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come
| and anoint him. And very early in the morning the first day of the
| week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. And
| they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from
| the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked, they saw that the
| stone was rolled away: for it was very great. And entering into
| the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side,

| he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth,
| which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place
| where they laid him. But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter

| sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they
| any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

ever one God, world without end. _Amen_.
