INCLUSIVE

First Point. First: They take Him bound from the house of Annas to the house of Caiphas, where St. Peter denied Him twice, and looked at by the Lord, going forth he wept bitterly.

Second Point. Second: Jesus was all that night bound.

Third Point. Third: Besides, those who held Him captive mocked Him and struck Him and covered His face and gave Him buffets and asked Him: "Prophesy to us, who is he that struck Thee?'" and like things, blaspheming against Him.

Matthew 26, Luke 23, Mark 15.

First Point. First: The whole multitude of the Jews [28] take Him to Pilate and accuse Him before him, saying: "We have found that this man tried to ruin our people and forbade to pay tribute to Caesar.'"

Second Point. Second: Pilate, after having examined Him once and again, said: "I find no fault.'"

Third Point. Third: The robber Barabbas was preferred to Him. "They all cried, saying: Give us not this man, but Barabbas!'"

[28] The whole multitude of the Jews is inserted here in the handwriting of St. Ignatius, a phrase being erased after accuse.
