Appropinquat IESVS colloquentibus. // C. Committem se illis adiungit; tenetur oculi // eorum, ne cum agnoscant; varie verbis // suis illos permovet IESVS se longius ire simulat. // D. Persuadent illi, vt cum ipsis maneat. // E. Emmaus in tribu Beniamin sexaginta sta: // dijs ab Hierusalem, quo vehmenter // rogant, vt secum diurtat. // f. Domus Cleophae, quo deductus est IESVS. // G. Ibi recumbens cum illis, consecratum // & fractum panem porrigens, ab // oculis eorum evanescit. // H. Repleti dono et agnitione coelesti IESVM // agnoscunt, & quae ab eo in itinere // adviverant plenius intelligent. // I. Redeunt e vestigio Hierosolymam. // K. Reperium congregatos undecim, narrant // que gesserat Christus; audiunt eum // Simoni apparuisse.”
