of_o these_o two_o commandment_n all_o the_o law_n do_v hang_v and_o the_o prophet_n and_o forasmuch_o also_o as_o we_o can_v not_o love_n god_n well_o except_o we_o do_v love_v our_o neighbour_n in_o a_o due_a order_n ne_o yet_o love_v our_o neighbour_n well_o except_o we_o do_v love_n god_n in_o that_o due_a order_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v saint_n john_n the_o evangelist_n so_o testifyeng_v

and_o forasmuch_o as_o almost_o every_o man_n make_v &_o frame_v to_o himself_o a_o charity_n after_o his_o own_o appetyte_n and_o how_o detestable_a so_o ever_o his_o life_n be_v both_o unto_o god_n
