ANd when he had called the people unto him, with his disciples also, he said unto them, who­soever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever [Page] [...] save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall [...] his life for my sake and the Gospels, the same shall [...] it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain [...] whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what [...] a man give in exchange for his soul?
