***
This fragment from the York Corpus Christi Plays indicates a play based on Jesus's first miracle, in which he transformed water into wine. Appropriately, this was performed by the Guild of Vintners- the wine merchants.

Due to only remaining as a single line, it has never been performed in the modern productions. What might it have looked like?

The play is based on John 2:1-12.
