The same was in the beginning with God.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Then I was by him, {\i as} a master workman;\par\tab And I was daily {\i his} delight,\par\tab Rejoicing always before him,
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
All things were made through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made.
And if I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I cannot {\i contain}.
