A reede shaken with the winde? 25But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and liue delicately, are in kings courts. 26But what went ye out for to see? A Prophet? Yea, I say vnto you, and much more then a Prophet. 27This is he of whome it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
