Then they took Jesus and led him
away to Caiaphas, the high priest, and the scribes and the elders. And men
followed him, and Peter followed him afar off unto the palace of the high priest
and went in, and sat with the servants. And they had a fire, and Peter warmed
himself. And as Peter sat in the palace, a maid came and looked upon him, and
said, Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth. But he denied, saying, I know not
what thou sayest. And another maid saw him, and said to them that stood there,
This man also of them. And again he denied, I am not, I know not. And after,
they that stood by said to Peter, Surely thou art also one of them with him,
thou art a Galilaean for thy speech. Then he began to curse and to swear,
saying, Man, I know not. And immediately the cock crew. And when Peter
remembered the word of Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt
deny me thrice, Peter went out into the porch, and he wept bitterly.
