As  Jesus  sat  over  against  the  Treasury,  he  beheld  how  the
people  cast  money  into  it :  and  many  rich  men  cast  in  much  :
and  he  saw  also  a  certain  poor  widow  which  cast  in  '  two
mites.  And  he  said.  Of  a  truth  I  say  unto  you,  that  this  poor
widow  hath  cast  in  more  than  they  all :  for  they '  of  their
superfluity  cast  into '  the  offerings  of  God;  but  she  of  her
penury  hath  cast  in  all  the  "  living  that  she  had.    Mark  xii.  41.
