8 And going into the city, she
saw a certain prince, who had
married another prince's daughter;
9 But when he came to see her,
he perceived between her eyes the
signs of leprosy like a star, and
thereupon declared the marriage
dissolved and void.
10 When the woman saw these
persons in this condition, exceeding
sorrowful, and shedding abundance
of tears, she inquired of them
the reason of their crying;
11 They replied, inquire not
into our circumstances; for we
are not able to declare our
misfortunes to any, person,
whatsoever.
12 But she still pressed and
desired them to communicate their
case to her; intimating, that she
might be able to direct them
to a remedy.
13 So when they showed the young
woman to her, and the signs
of the leprosy, which appeared
between her eyes;
14 She said, I also whom ye
see in this place, was afflicted
with the same distemper, and going
on some business to Bethlehem, I
went into a certain cave, and saw
a woman named Mary, who had a
son called Jesus.
15 She seeing me to be leprous,
was concerned for me, and gave
me some water with which she
had washed her son's body, with
that I sprinkled my body, and
became clean.
16 Then said these women, Will
you Mistress, go along with us,
and show the Lady St. Mary to
us?
17 To which she consenting,
they arose and went to the Lady
St. Mary, taking with them very
noble presents.
