IN GETHSEMANE
Judas:
Hail, Master!
Jesus:
Whom seek ye ?
Chorus (Men):
Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus:
I am He: if therefore ye seek Me, let these go their way.
Narrator 2:
And they all forsook Him and fled but Peter followed Him afar off, to see the end.
Chorus (Men)
And they that had laid hands on Jesus, led Him away to the High Priest.
IN THE PALACE OF THE HIGH PRIEST
Servants:
Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth. This man was also with Him.
Peter:
I know not what thou sayest.
Servants:
Art not thou also one of His disciples?
Peter:
As thy soul liveth, I am not.
Servants:
Did not we see thee in the garden with Him? Surely thou also art one of them.
Peter:
I swear by the Lord, I know not this Man of whom ye speak.
Chorus (women)
Then led they Jesus unto the hall of judgment.
And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter, and he went out, and wept bitterly.
