Now when these three kings were passed out of Jerusalem the Star appeared to them again as it did erst, and went before them till they were come to Bethlehem. Now, the nearer the kings came to the place where Christ was born, the brighter shined the Star, and they entered Bethlehem the sixth hour of the day. And they rode through the streets till they came before a little house.
They woulde in no wise permitte that the moates in the Sunnebeames should be full mouthde beholders of theyr cleane phinikde appareil, theyr shooes shined as bright as a slike-stone, theyr handes troubled and soyled more water with washing, than the camell doth, that nere drinkes till the whole streame bee troubled.

'Prayer was made earnestly of the Church unto God for him' and so when Herod would have brought him forth, behold, the angel of the Lord came, and the light shined into the prison.
I'm an old fool about wimmen, hey? Mebbe I was years ago. But I can see now.... Didn't Wils always get ory-eyed when any of the other boys shined up to you?" "I can't remember that he did," replied Columbine. She felt a desire to laugh, yet the subject was anything but amusing to her. "Wal, you've always been innocent-like.
