The etymology and the Middle English spelling of "beginning" [closed]

This question is about historical spelling, but in my opinion the knowledge of the historical spelling relates with the etymology knowledge.

The questions are:
1. Is the fourth letter in image 1 (y) and the large yellow capital letter in image 2 the same letter?
2. Are the fifth and the sixth letters of the circled word in image 2 the same?

What are the precise letters in the word "beginning" in Wycliffe's Bible from originalbibles.com (Wycliffe's Bible, from 1382 to 1395, Middle English, page 151, Jn.1:1)?

The Oxford English Dictionary (subscription required), for the word "beginning, n" we find:

Forms: Also bi-, bygyn(n)yng; ME -unge.

Spelling was much less consistent in the 14th century than today.
