bonos facit: mala autem arbor malos fructus facit. Non potest arbor bona malos fructus fácere: neque arbor mala bonos fructus fácere. Omnis arbor, quæ non facit fructum bonum, excidétur, et in ignem mittétur. Ígitur ex frúctibus eórum cognoscétis eos. Non omnis qui dicit mihi, Dómine, Dómine, intrábit in regnum cælórum: sed qui facit voluntátem Patris mei, qui in cælis est, ipse intrábit in regnum cælórum.

Rochester Leaf 02 Recto Translation
[Matthew 7:17-21]
bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them. 21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.
