  5 2    |         to her her servant, and said to her: Dost thou see me
  6 2    |       murmur, thus answered and said: If God hath shut up thy
  7 3    |         feeding his flocks, and said to him: Why dost thou not
  8 3    |        to thy wife? And Joachim said: I have had her for twenty
  9 3    |      thus spoken, the young man said to him: I am an angel of
 10 3    |   Joachim adored the angel, and said to him: If I have found
 11 3    |      thy servant. And the angel said to him: Do not say servant,
 12 3    |        a lamb without spot, and said to the angel: I should not
 13 3    |         offering. And the angel said to him: I should not have
 14 3    |        worshipped the Lord, and said to him: See that thou no

 16 5    |    filled with the Holy Spirit, said before them all: The Lord
 17 7    |   Israel. But Mary answered and said unto them: God is worshipped
 18 8    |   silence had been obtained, he said: Hear me, O sons of Israel,
 19 8    |        of Judah. And the priest said: To-morrow let every one
 20 8    |       of the Lord. And the Lord said to him: Put all their rods
 21 8    |          And the priests having said to him, Take her, because
 22 8    |        Abiathar the high priest said to him: Remember, Joseph,
 23 8    |        high priest answered and said: Five virgins indeed shall

 25 9    |     feared and trembled. And he said to her: Hail, Mary, full
 26 10   |      virgins who were with Mary said to him: Joseph, what art
 27 10   |         made her pregnant. Then said Joseph: Why do you mislead
 28 10   |     thus speaking, he wept, and said: With what face shall I
 29 12   |       and her parents wept, and said to Mary: Confess to the
 30 12   |         they summoned Mary, and said: And what excuse canst thou
 31 12   |        of the people. Then Mary said, stedfastly and without
 32 12   |    conflicting statements: some said that she was holy and unspotted,
 33 12   |      them to be wholly cleared, said in the hearing of all, with
 34 12   |         And they cried out, and said: Blessed be the name of
 35 13   |        leads to Bethlehem, Mary said to Joseph: I see two peoples
 36 13   |  blessed. ~And when he had thus said, the angel ordered the beast
 37 13   |       brought forth. And Joseph said to the blessed Mary: I have
 38 13   |          she smiled; and Joseph said to her: Do not smile; but
 39 13   |   having stayed without, Zelomi said to Mary: Allow me to touch
 40 13   |      out with a loud voice, and said: Lord, Lord Almighty, mercy
 41 13   |     hearing these words, Salome said: Allow me to handle thee,
 42 13   |  prophets who were in Jerusalem said that this star pointed out
 43 14   |        fulfilled that which was said by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
 44 14   |        fulfilled that which was said by Abacuc the prophet, saying:
 45 15   |        and kissed His feet, and said: Lord, now lettest Thou
 46 16   |        should be born. And they said: In Bethlehem of Judah.
 47 16   |   sending them to Bethlehem, he said: Go and make strict inquiry
 48 17   |      the angel of the Lord, who said to him: Take Mary and the
 49 18   |        fulfilled that which was said by David the prophet, saying:
 50 18   |       by the dragons. And Jesus said to them: Do not be afraid,
 51 19   |         joyful countenance, and said: Be not afraid, mother;
 52 20   |         seeing a palm tree, she said to Joseph: Let me rest a
 53 20   |       saw it full of fruit, and said to Joseph: I wish it were
 54 20   |        of this palm. And Joseph said to her: I wonder that thou
 55 20   |        the bosom of His mother, said to the palm: O tree, bend
 56 20   |         it to stoop. Then Jesus said to it: Raise thyself, O
 57 21   |         turned to the palm, and said: This privilege I give thee,
 58 21   |     upon thee, that it shall be said of all who conquer in any
 59 21   |         it were dead. And Jesus said to them: Why are your hearts
 60 22   |   goingon their journey, Joseph said to Jesus: Lord, it is a
 61 22   |      cities on the coast. Jesus said to him: Fear not, Joseph;
 62 23   |        fulfilled that which was said by the prophet Isaiah: Behold,
 63 24   |      bosom, and adored Him, and said to all his army and all
 64 25   |    After no long time the angel said to Joseph: Return to the
 65 26   |        Jesus had built up. Then said Jesus to him: Woe unto thee,
 66 26   |         of the Jews. But Joseph said privately to Mary: I dare
 67 26   |         about his death? And He said: He deserved death, because
 68 26   |      parts of the dead boy, and said to him: Rise, thou son of
 69 27   |         seen Him doing this, he said to Joseph: Joseph, dost
 70 27   |         His hands together, and said to His sparrows: Fly! And
 71 27   |        of all that stood by, He said to the birds: Go and fly
 72 28   |         when Jesus saw this, He said to that boy who had destroyed
 73 29   |          if he could. And Jesus said to him: Thou shall not go
 74 29   |         boy came to Joseph, and said to him: Take away that Jesus
 75 29   |          And Jesus answered and said unto Joseph: No one is a
 76 30   |    speak against Joseph. And he said: Dost thou not wish to entrust
 77 30   |      Joseph, on the other hand, said to him: And is there any
 78 30   |   having heard what Zachyas had said, answered and said unto
 79 30   |  Zachyas had said, answered and said unto him: The precepts of
 80 30   |       one else, nor has it been said or at any time heard by
 81 30   |          And Jesus answered and said unto them: At this do ye
 82 30   |    wonder, that such things are said by a child? Why, then, do
 83 30   |       those things which I have said to you? And you all wonder
 84 30   |        you all wonder because I said to you that I know when
 85 30   |        dare to speak. And Jesus said to them: I have been among
 86 31   |     Zachyas, doctor of the law, said to Joseph and Mary: Give
 87 31   |     tongue. And the master Levi said one letter to Jesus, and,
 88 31   |         the first letter Aleph, said to Him: Answer. But Jesus
 89 31   |      Him on the head. And Jesus said to the teacher Levi: Why
 90 31   |    sound. And Jesus in addition said to Zachyas: Every letter
 91 31   |       Aleph is. And again Jesus said to them: Those who do not
 92 31   |       believe you when you have said Beth. And Jesus began to
 93 31   |         letters one by one, and said: Let the master of the law
 94 31   |      with a joyful countenance, said in a commanding voice to
 95 31   |        when the child Jesus had said this, forthwith all who
 96 32   |         Him: My lord. And Jesus said to him: Was it I that threw
 97 32   |      roof to the ground? And he said: No, my lord. And the parents
 98 35   |      the ark of the covenant is said to have rested. And Jesus
 99 35   |     afar off, not seeing Jesus, said: Unless he or his parents
100 36   |        and on the left. Then He said to the lions, in the hearing
101 37   |       as the longer one. And He said to Joseph: Go and work,
102 38   |    saying: Say Alpha. And Jesus said to him: Do thou tell me
103 38   |         called Mary to him, and said to her: Know of a surety
104 38   |      die. But Mary answered and said: O man of God! do not believe
105 39   |     when the master saw him, he said to him: Thou hast given
106 40   | lamenting over the dead man, He said to Joseph: Why dost thou
107 40   |        him a benefit? And Jesus said to him: Take the handkerchief
108 40   |         lying in the couch, and said: Jesus heal thee. And forthwith
109 41   |          becoming exhausted, he said, with a bitter cry: Alas!
