against the counsel of men ,
it came to pass that Christ should be put to death upon the solemn day of the passover ,

two days was [
the feast of ]
the passover ,
and of unleavened bread :

as he sate at table ,

very costly ,
and shee brake the boxe ,
and powred it on his head .

and have been given to the poor .
And they murmured against her .

this also that she hath done ,
shalbe spoken of in remembrance of her .

And when they heard it ,
they were glad ,
and promised that they woulde giue him monie :
therefore he sought howe he might conueniently betraie him .
