¶_o a_o exhortation_n against_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v marueyl_v that_o worldly_a man_n do_v fear_n to_o dye_v for_o death_n deprive_v they_o of_o all_o worldly_a honour_n

soul_n without_o either_o appellation_n or_o hope_v of_o redemption_n unto_o everla_a pain_n in_o hell_n unto_o this_o state_n death_n send_v the_o unmercyfull_a and_o ungodly_a richeman_n xuj_o that_o luke_n speak_v of_o in_o his_o gospel_n who_o live_v in_o all_o wealth_n and_o pleasure_n in_o this_o world_n and_o cherish_v himself_o daily_a with_o dainty_a fare_n and_o gorgeous_a apparel_n

which_o common_o man_n suffer_v either_o before_o or_o at_o the_o time_n of_o death_n but_o the_o chief_a cause_n above_o all_o other_o third_o be_v the_o dread_n of_o the_o miserable_a state_n of_o
