but_o that_o he_o somewhat_o more_o deep_o as_o i_o suppose_v consider_v the_o propriety_n of_o the_o greek_a howbeit_o it_o be_v not_o great_o material_a whether_o a_o man_n understande_v this_o place_n as_o mean_v of_o all_o carnal_a affection_n or_o else_o only_o of_o a_o external_a and_o outward_a intemperaunce_n this_o profitable_a lesson_n notwithstanding_o be_v hereby_o teach_v we_o that_o no_o man_n in_o this_o life_n can_v be_v perfect_o holy_a and_o thorough_o pure_a from_o sin_n this_o place_n the_o school_n man_n have_v gross_o mistake_v rove_a far_a wide_a from_o the_o true_a meaning_n thereof_o for_o they_o think_v it_o to_o be_v only_o speak_v and_o mean_v of_o they_o that_o be_v sinner_n as_o though_o the_o holy_a one_o be_v clear_a without_o all_o evil_a lust_n and_o carnal_a affection_n but_o he_o that_o will_v profitable_o search_v and_o read_v the_o scripture_n must_v with_o judgement_n and_o discretion_n weigh_v and_o thorough_o sift_v the_o nature_n sense_n and_o signification_n of_o every_o word_n for_o the_o prophet_n use_v sometime_o so_o to_o speak_v of_o they_o that_o be_v holy_a as_o that_o they_o seem_v to_o pronounce_v they_o pure_a and_o altogether_o clear_a from_o all_o manner_n of_o sin_n again_o sometime_o they_o so_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o that_o they_o confess_v they_o yet_o to_o have_v evil_a affection_n corrupt_a motion_n and_o to_o fight_v against_o sin_n this_o diversity_n and_o variety_n that_o in_o apparaunce_n seem_v to_o be_v in_o they_o marvellous_o gravel_v and_o offend_v these_o great_a rabbin_n and_o wonderful_o blind_v their_o sense_n from_o right_o understand_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n thus_o therefore_o stay_v thou_o thyself_o and_o for_o thy_o sure_a conceive_n of_o this_o and_o such_o like_a place_n be_v at_o this_o resolution_n thou_o ought_v to_o consider_v christian_n after_o two_o sort_n namely_o accord_v to_o their_o inward_a and_o hide_a life_n to_o wit_n faith_n and_o also_o accord_v to_o their_o outward_a and_o open_a life_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o flesh_n now_o if_o thou_o consider_v and_o respect_n a_o christian_n accord_v to_o faith_n he_o be_v all_o pure_a and_o without_o all_o filth_n and_o uncleanness_n but_o after_o the_o flesh_n he_o be_v not_o so_o for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n can_v abide_v no_o unclean_a thing_n to_o rest_n in_o that_o

for_o so_o much_o as_o we_o have_v faith_n be_v as_o yet_o clothe_v in_o this_o flesh_n and_o dwell_v on_o this_o earth_n it_o can_v not_o be_v but_o that_o now_o and_o then_o we_o feel_v within_o

of_o a_o certain_a man_n who_o go_v down_o from_o jerusalem_n to_o hiericho_n fall_v among_o thief_n who_o rob_v he_o of_o his_o raiment_n and_o wound_v he_o very_o sore_o and_o depart_v leave_v he_o

thereof_o as_o do_v the_o papist_n therefore_o when_o in_o the_o scripture_n thou_o read_v of_o holy_a meime_n that_o be_v say_v to_o be_v perfect_v thou_o must_v thus_o understande_v it_o that_o accord_v to_o faith_n they_o be_v altogether_o pure_a and_o without_o sin_n but_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v flesh_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o be_v entire_o clean_a whereupon_o christian_n in_o
