my son, they went on to a city in
which were several idols; which,
as soon as they came near to it,
was turned into hills of sand.
9 Hence they went to that
sycamore tree, which is now called
Matarea.
10 And in Materea the Lord
Jesus caused a well to spring
forth, in which St. Mary washed
his coat;
11 And a balsam is produced,
or grows, in that country, from
the sweat which ran down there
from the Lord Jesus.
12 Thence they proceeded to
Memphis, and saw Pharoah, and
abode three years in Egypt.
13 And the Lord Jesus did very
many miracles, in Egypt, which
are neither to be found in
Gospel of the Infancy nor in the
Gospel of Perfection.
14 At the end of three years
he returned out of Egypt, and
when he came near to Judea,
Joseph was afraid to enter;
15 For hearing that Herod was
dead, and that Archelaus his son
reigned in his stead, he was afraid.
16 And when he went to Judea,
an, angel of God appeared to
him, and said, O Joseph go
into the city of Nazareth, and
abide there.
17 It is strange indeed, that he,
who is the Lord of all countries,
should be thus carried backward and
forward, through so many countries.
CHAPTER IX.
2 Two sick children cured by water
wherein Christ was washed.
WHEN they came afterwards
into the city of Bethlehem,
they found there several very
desperate distempers, which became
so troublesome to children by seeing
them, that most of them died.
2 There was there a woman who
had a sick son, whom she brought,
when he was at the point of death,
to the Lady St. Mary, who saw
her when she was washing Jesus
Christ.
3 Then said the woman, O my
Lady Mary, look down upon this
my son, who is afflicted with most
dreadful pains.
4 St. Mary hearing her, said,
Take a little of that water with
which I have washed my son, and
sprinkle it upon him.
5 Then she took a little of that
water, as St. Mary had commanded,
and sprinkled it upon her son,
who being wearied with his violent
pains, was fallen asleep; and after
he had slept a little, awaked
perfectly well and recovered.
6 The mother being abundantly
glad of this success, went again to
St. Mary, and St. Mary said to
her, Give praise to God, who hath
cured this thy son.
7 There was in the same place
another woman, a neighbour of
her, whose son was now cured.
8 This woman's son was afflicted
with the same disease, and his eyes
were now almost quite shut, and
she was lamenting for him day
and night.
9 The mother of the child which
was cured, said to her, Why do
you not bring your son to St. Mary,
as I brought my son to her, when
he was in the agonies of death;
and he was cure by that water,
with which the body of her son
Jesus was washed?
10 When the woman heard her
say this, she also went, and having
procured the same water, washed
her son with it, whereupon his
body and his eyes were instantly
restored to their former state.
11 And when she brought her
son to St. Mary, and opened his
case to her, she commanded her to
give thanks to God for the recovery
