The Seven Sleepers Were Born In the City Of Ephesus. And When Decius The Emperor Came Into Ephesus For The Persecution Of Christian Men, He Commanded to Edify The Temples In the Middle Of The City, So That All Should Come With Him To Do Sacrifice To The Idols, And Did Do Seek All The Christian People, And Bind Them For To Make Them To Do Sacrifice, Or Else To Put Them To Death; In such Wise That Every Man Was Afeard Of The Pains That He Promised, That The Friend Forsook His Friend, And The Son Renied his Father, And The Father The Son. And Then In this City Were Founden Seven Christian Men, That Is To Wit, Maximian, Malchus, Marcianus, Denis, John, Serapion, And Constantine. And When They Saw This, They Had Much Sorrow, And Because They Were The First In the Palace That Despised the Sacrifices, They Hid Them In their Houses, And Were In fastings And In prayers. And Then They Were Accused tofore Decius, And Came Thither, And Were Found Very Christian Men. Then Was Given To Them Space For To Repent Them, Unto The Coming again Of Decius. And In the Meanwhile They Dispended their Patrimony In alms To The Poor People; And Assembled them Together, And Took Counsel, And Went To The Mount Of Celion, And There Ordained to Be More Secretly, And There Hid Them Long Time. And One Of Them Administered and Served them Always. And When He Went Into The City, He Clothed him In the Habit Of A Beggar.

And Malchus Set Tofore Them The Loaves Of Bread That He Had Brought, So That They Were Comforted of The Meat, And Were More Strong For To Suffer Torments. And When They Had Taken Their Refection And Sat In Weeping and Wailings, Suddenly, As God Would, They Slept, And When It Came On The Morn They Were Sought And Could Not Be Found. Wherefore Decius Was Sorrowful Because He Had Lost Such Young Men. And Then They Were Accused that They Were Hid In the Mount Of Celion, And Had Given Their Goods To Poor Men, And Yet Abode In their Purpose. And Then Commanded decius That Their Kindred should Come To Him, And Menaced them To The Death If They Said Not Of Them All That They Knew. And They Accused them, And Complained that They Had Dispended all Their Riches. Then Decius Thought What He Should Do With Them, And, As Our Lord Would, He Inclosed the Mouth Of The Cave Wherein They Were With Stones, To The End That They Should Die Therein For Hunger And Fault Of Meat.
