21 Text|           but dog-like angels.~Then Nero said to Simon: What is it,
22 Text|         thoughts of every man?~Then Nero, turning to Paul, said:
23 Text|           empire from its position. Nero said to Simon: What sayest
24 Text|       bestow upon me due reverence. Nero said: And now, why dost
25 Text|        shame as uneducated men. And Nero said to Peter: Hast thou
26 Text|          that he is full of demons. Nero said: Why do you make to
27 Text|       unbelieving Simon had said to Nero: Order me to be beheaded
28 Text|            I am the Son of God.~And Nero having ordered this, in

40 Text|          thou shouldst be in doubt. Nero said: I neither doubt nor
41 Text| Henceforward I answer thee nothing. Nero said: Seeing that thou liest,
42 Text|            I no longer answer thee. Nero said: Nor do I consider
43 Text|      kingdom there shall be no end. Nero said: What king is lord?
44 Text|        Simon said: Listen, O Caesar Nero, that thou mayst know that
45 Text|      punishment. Simon said: Caesar Nero, listen to me. Separate
