Matthew26:70

70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

Mark hath this, Ch. 14.66, 67. only he saith, Peter was beneath in the Palace, and warming himself. Luke hath this whole Story before, what he saith of Christ's Examination, and Condemnation, Ch. 22.56. And a certain Maid beh[illegible: 1 letter]ld him, as he sate by the F[illegible: 1 letter]re, and earnestly lookt upon him, and said, This Man was also with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. We before left Peter in the High Priests Palace, warming himself by the Fire amongst the Servants. It is a dangerous thing for Christians, to come into places of Temptation. A Maid comes to him, and Chargeth him to have been with Christ, whom she calls Iesus of Galilee: So they called Christ, sometimes Iesus of Nazareth, the City in Galilee where Christ lived the greatest part of his Life: He denied before them all: So loud that all heard it. I know not what thou sayest, or (as Luke saith) I know him not, I neither know him, nor what thou sayest.
