thou_o be_v the_o man_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o judas_n conscience_n be_v not_o awake_a this_o be_v indeed_o matter_n of_o admiration_n that_o a_o man_n conscience_n shall_v be_v so_o fast_o asleep_a but_o how_o many_o instance_n of_o such_o sleepy_a conscience_n do_v this_o very_a age_n afford_v but_o do_v judas_n conscience_n sleep_v always_o no._n then_o judas_n which_o betray_v he_o when_o he_o see_v that_o jesus_n be_v condemn_v he_o bring_v again_o the_o 30_o piece_n of_o silver_n to_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v in_o that_o i_o have_v betray_v innocent_a blood_n but_o miserable_a comforter_n be_v those_o christ-buyer_n they_o buy_v he_o to_o be_v crucify_v they_o do_v reply_n to_o he_o when_o he_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v what_o be_v that_o to_o we_o see_v thou_o to_o that_o and_o he_o cast_v down_o the_o thirty_o piece_n of_o silver_n in_o the_o temple_n and_o go_v and_o hang_v himself_o and_o now_o his_o conscience_n be_v so_o awake_a that_o it_o will_v not_o suffer_v he_o to_o live_v i_o assure_v you_o howsoever_o conscience_n may_v be_v asleep_a for_o a_o great_a while_n yet_o the_o time_n will_v come_v that_o conscience_n will_v do_v its_o office_n and_o therefore_o it_o do_v great_o concern_v we_o to_o take_v great_a care_n that_o conscience_n may_v have_v no_o occasion_n to_o reproach_v we_o o_o happy_a judas_n if_o thou_o have_v never_o make_v a_o bargain_n to_o sell_v thy_o master_n and_o have_v never_o seek_v opportunity_n to_o betray_v he_o o_o happy_a if_o thou_o have_v never_o accompany_v the_o band_n of_o
