a_o this_o be_v the_o complain_v of_o lover_n what_o thing_n so_o ever_o hit_v be_v that_o be_v grete_o belove_v the_o defer_v thereof_o be_v painful_a and_o not_o withstand_v that_o if_o hit_v be_v

trybulacyon_n be_v draw_v from_o sin_n to_o virtuous_o ve_v and_o lytell_a setting_a by_o all_o the_o false_a worldly_a joye_n and_o also_o the_o virtuous_a innocent_n which_o be_v preserve_v by_o temptacyon_n and_o tribulation_n that_o hit_v be_v never_o blind_v and_o desceyve_v by_o that_o joy_n thê°_n no_o man_n neither_o woman_n may_v think_v that_o they_o be_v out_o of_o the_o love_n of_o our_o lord_n by_o trybulacyan_n but_o rather_o think_v that_o they_o be_v specyal_o belove_v of_o he_o the_o which_o send_v they_o trybulacyon_n to_o keep_v or_o to_o delyver_v they_o fro_o false_a desceyvable_a pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n and_o from_o the_o inordynate_n and_o foul_a delight_n of_o the_o flesh_n these_o pleasure_n be_v call_v false_a for_z they_o be_v full_o sweet_a in_o the_o begin_n but_o they_o end_v with_o great_a bitterness_n and_o sorrow_n as_o solomon_n say_v ¶_o extrema_fw-la gauditluctus_fw-la occupo_fw-la ¶_o the_o end_n of_o worde_o joye_n be_v occupy_v
