The story in a nutshell

When Jesus was brought into the high priest's house, Peter followed afar off and sat down among them by a fire in the midst of the hall. A certain maid said, "This man was also with him," and Peter denied him, saying, "Woman, I know him not." Two more times people said he was with Jesus, and Peter denied it; immediately the cock crew.
