school_n then_o repentance_n say_v unto_o i_o son_n thou_o must_v enter_v in_o at_o this_o straight_a hole_n whereout_o i_o come_v but_o when_o i_o complain_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v unpossible_a because_o my_o head_n will_v not_o in_o she_o say_v there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n or_o entrance_n into_o her_o school_n then_o i_o call_v to_o mind_v what_o our_o lord_n have_v say_v in_o the_o gospel_n of_o matthew_n the_o way_n be_v straight_o which_o lead_v to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o very_o few_o walk_n that_o way_n now_o as_o i_o stand_v wonder_v at_o the_o narrow_a hole_n i_o see_v

new_a man_n which_o be_v to_o be_v create_v according_a to_o god_n in_o justice_n holiness_n and_o truth_n the_o old_a man_n be_v the_o affection_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o former_a evil_a life_n which_o be_v leave_v behind_o in_o the_o school_n of_o repentance_n and_o the_o new_a man_n be_v the_o good_a life_n which_o be_v new_o begin_v in_o holiness_n and_o truth_n as_o god_n grace_n be_v thus_o teach_v i_o i_o see_v a_o old_a eagle_n heavy-eyed_a and_o thick_o feather_v flutter_v aloft_o this_o eagle_n fall_v down_o dive_v three_o time_n into_o a_o fair_a fountain_n thereabouts_o and_o present_o return_v young_a and_o lusty_a which_o miracle_n make_v i_o marvel_n more_o than_o that_o of_o the_o serpent_n then_o say_v god_n grace_n as_o the_o eagle_n be_v renew_v from_o the_o

thou_o shall_v receive_v thy_o first_o innocency_n which_o i_o give_v thou_o in_o thy_o baptism_n then_o god_n grace_v enter_v into_o the_o school_n of_o repentance_n before_o i_o say_v i_o will_v

now_o therefore_o let_v no_o man_n glorine_v himself_o see_v it_o be_v god_n grace_n that_o go_v before_o man_n will_n and_o that_o by_o its_o mean_n be_v make_v good_a then_o i_o eutr_v in_o after_o

how_o be_v it_o strange_a see_v he_o be_v every_o where_o not_o only_o in_o heaven_n but_o also_o in_o earth_n and_o in_o hell_n true_o i_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v every_o where_o but_o i_o deny_v

justice_n and_o vengeance_n true_o by_o such_o presence_n of_o god_n they_o have_v no_o joy_n no_o consolation_n no_o benefit_n or_o selicity_n for_o that_o all_o be_v curse_v in_o who_o god_n dwell_v

most_o true_a though_o marvellous_a for_o the_o evil_n be_v always_o where_o god_n be_v but_o yet_o god_n dwell_v not_o in_o they_o wheresoever_o the_o wicked_a be_v they_o can_v hide_v themselves_o from_o god_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o dweller_n with_o god_n nor_o god_n a_o dweller_n with_o they_o they_o be_v where_o god_n be_v as_o the_o blind_a man_n in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n the_o light_n be_v not_o in_o he_o because_o he_o have_v not_o the_o use_n of_o it_o but_o the_o good_a be_v always_o with_o god_n and_o god_n dwell_v in_o they_o as_o in_o his_o temple_n saint_n
