Ihesu Cristes ascensioun
euen the fourty day [was] done
after his Resurrectioun,
and how I schal declar [ȝ]owe sone:

Circa Christi ascensionem septem sunt consideranda, Primo, vnde ascendit, Secundo, quare non statim post resurrectionem ascendit, Set tot dies expectauit, Tercio qualiter ascendit, quarto cum quibus ascendit, Quinto quo ascendit, sexto quare ascendit.
