¶ W[hen] he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him. • And it came
to pass, when he was in a certain city, • behold, there came • a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus •
worshipped • beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, • fell on his face, and besought him, saying, •

unto him, • Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. • And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth
