that_o he_o have_v grievous_o offend_v god_n 4._o if_o he_o be_v hearty_o sorry_a for_o it_o 5._o if_o he_o resolve_v to_o forsake_v his_o sin_n if_o god_n give_v he_o leave_v 6_o if_o he_o hope_v and_o believe_v to_o come_v to_o eternal_a salvation_n not_o by_o his_o own_o merit_n but_o by_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o anselme_n say_v that_o these_o six_o question_n be_v to_o be_v ask_v of_o every_o one_o at_o the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n and_o say_v further_a thus_o then_o say_v to_o the_o sick_a person_n if_o satan_n object_n any_o thing_n against_o thou_o oppose_v thou_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n betwixt_o thou_o and_o he_o and_o thus_o without_o all_o doubt_n he_o shall_v be_v save_v this_o consolation_n of_o the_o sick_a and_o preparation_n to_o their_o death_n be_v in_o ancient_a copy_n ascribe_v to_o anselme_n who_o live_v more_o than_o 500_o year_n ago_o even_o when_o popery_n be_v almost_o grow_v to_o perfect_a age_n now_o if_o any_o man_n make_v

error_n and_o superstition_n condemn_v or_o reprove_v by_o the_o church_n and_o be_v thou_o glad_a that_o thou_o die_v in_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o unity_n and_o obedience_n of_o thy_o
