I to do with thee, Jesus, thou son
of Mary? Whither shall I flee
from thee?
19 So he drew back much
affrighted, and left the girl.
20 And she was delivered from
this trouble, and sang praises and
thanks to God, and with her all
who were present at the working
of the miracle.
CHAPTER XIV.
1 Judas when a boy possessed by Satan, and brought up
by his parents to Jesus to be cured, whom he tries to bite,
7 but failing, strikes Jesus and makes him cry out.
Whereupon Satan goes from Jesus in the shape of a dog.
ANOTHER woman likewise
lived there, whose son was
possessed by Satan,
2 This boy, named Judas, as
often as Satan seized him, was
inclined to bite all that were
present; and if he found no one else
near him, he would bite his own
hands and other parts.
3 But the mother of this miserable
boy, hearing of St. Mary and her son
Jesus, arose presently and taking
her son in her arms, brought him
to the Lady Mary.
4 In the meantime, James and
Joses had taken away the infant,
the Lord Jesus, to play at a proper
season with other children;
and when they went forth, they
sat down and the Lord Jesus with
them.
5 Then Judas, who was possessed,
came and sat down at the right hand
of Jesus.
6 When Satan was acting upon him
as usual, he went about to bite
the Lord Jesus.
7 And because he could not do
it, he struck Jesus on the right
side, so that he cried out.
8 And in the same moment Satan
went out of the boy, and ran
away like a mad dog.
9 This same boy who struck
Jesus, and out of whom Satan went
in the form of a dog, was Judas
Iscariot, who betrayed him to the
Jews.
10 And that same side, on which
Judas: struck him, the Jews
pierced with a spear.
CHAPTER XV.
1 Jesus and other boys play together,
and make clay figures of animals.
4 Jesus causes them to walk,
6 also makes clay birds, which he causes to fly,
and eat and drink.
7 The children's parents alarmed,
and take Jesus for a sorcerer.
8 He goes to a dyer's shop, and throws all the
cloths into the furnace, and works a miracle therewith.
15 Whereupon the Jews praise God.
AND when the Lord Jesus was
seven years of age, he was
on a certain day with other boys
his companions about the same
age;
2 Who, when they were at play,
made clay into several shapes,
namely--asses, oxen, birds, and
other figures;
3 Each boasting of his work,
and endeavouring to exceed the
rest.
4 Then the Lord Jesus said to
the boys, I will command these
figures which I have made to
walk.
5 And immediately they moved,
and when he commanded them to
return, they returned.
6 He had also made the figures
of birds and sparrows, which,
when he commanded to fly, did
fly, and when he commanded to
stand still, did stand still; and if
he gave them meat and drink, they
did eat and drink.
7 When at length the boys went
away, and related these things to
their parents, their fathers said to
them, Take heed, children, for the
future of his company, for he is a
sorcerer; shun and avoid him, and
from henceforth never play with
him.
8 On a certain day also, when
the Lord Jesus was playing with
the boys, and running about, he
passed by a dyer's shop, whose
name was Salem.
9 And there were in his shop
many pieces of cloth belonging to
the people of that city, which they
designed to dye of several colours.
10 Then the Lord Jesus going
into the dyer's shop, took all the
cloths, and threw them into the
furnace.
11 When Salem came home, and
saw the cloths spoiled, he began to
make a great noise, and to chide
the Lord Jesus, saying,
12 What hast thou done to me,
O thou son of Mary? Thou hast
injured both me and my neighbours;
they all desired their cloths
of a proper colour; but thou hast
come and spoiled them all.
13 The Lord Jesus replied, I
will change the colour of every
cloth to what colour thou desirest.
14 And then he presently began
to take the cloths out of the furnace,
and they were all dyed of those same
colours which the dyer desired.
15 And when the
