first_o he_o have_v respect_n to_o that_o excellent_a dignity_n of_o his_o lord_n when_o he_o say_v do_v thou_o lord_n i_o say_v he_o consider_v what_o a_o base_a employment_n it_o be_v to_o wash_v

own_o unworthiness_n when_o he_o say_v for_o i_o or_o my_o foot_n and_o that_o also_o be_v commendable_a from_o both_o which_o he_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v more_o fit_a for_o he_o to_o serve_v christ_n than_o for_o christ_n to_o serve_v he_o which_o also_o be_v praiseworthy_a we_o must_v needs_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n be_v nothing_o indebt_v to_o we_o but_o we_o much_o to_o he_o lord_n do_v thou_o wash_v my_o foot_n thou_o lord_n of_o majesty_n for_o i_o the_o vile_a of_o creature_n a_o wretched_a sinner_n but_o peter_n be_v mistake_v to_o think_v it_o a_o dishonourable_a thing_n for_o christ_n to_o serve_v we_o as_o some_o now_o adays_o think_v it_o a_o dishonour_n and_o disgrace_n to_o christ_n to_o give_v we_o his_o body_n to_o eat_v whereas_o it_o be_v his_o great_a glory_n for_o hereby_o his_o infinite_a love_n and_o mercy_n do_v perfect_o shine_v upon_o we_o but_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o flesh_n be_v such_o that_o it_o have_v no_o fear_n of_o god_n at_o all_o when_o it_o sin_v but_o when_o it_o shall_v pray_v for_o pardon_n it_o will_v seem_v to_o have_v such_o reverence_n that_o it_o confess_v itself_o to_o be_v so_o unworthy_a that_o it_o dare_v not_o

for_o he_o know_v that_o the_o high_a priest_n ask_v it_o to_o a_o ill_a intent_n a_o good_a judge_n will_v inquire_v out_o the_o truth_n not_o listen_v to_o every_o base_a report_n but_o this_o fellow_n seek_v only_o to_o defame_v he_o as_o to_o his_o doctrine_n then_o christ_n be_v not_o silent_a lest_o he_o shall_v seem_v to_o repent_v what_o he_o have_v teach_v but_o he_o stand_v to_o
