And before the baptism let the baptiser and him who is to be baptised fast, and any others who are able. And thou shalt bid him who is to be baptised to fast one or two days before.

Let not your fasts be with the hypocrites, for[*](Fasting) they fast on Mondays and Thursdays, but do you fast on Wednesdays and Fridays.
