¶Now the vbirth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: *When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child wof the Holy *Ghost.

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her xa publick example, was minded to put her away *privily.

x De. 24.1; 22.13-25.
20

But while he thought on these things, behold, ythe angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is 2conceived in her zis of the Holy *Ghost.
