  13. While Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came by.

When the servant girl saw him there, she said again to those standing around, “This fellow is one of them.” Again, he denied it. Mark 14:66-70a

  14. After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.” He began to call down curses on himself, and he swore to them, “I don’t know this Man you’re talking about.” Immediately, the rooster crowed the second time. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice you will disown Me three times.” And he broke down and wept. Mark 14:70b-72
