therefore_o have_v hell_n enlarge_v its_o munch_v without_o bound_n believe_v i_o a_o adulterer_n or_o adulteress_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n worse_o than_o a_o thief_n or_o robber_n for_o a_o thief_n and_o a_o robber_n do_v but_o take_v away_o a_o man_n temporal_a good_n but_o a_o adulterer_n or_o adulteress_n do_v commit_v a_o more_o heinous_a crime_n by_o commit_v adultery_n for_o god_n himself_o institute_v matrimony_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v proper_o he_o and_o he_o himself_o do_v so_o strong_o join_v twain_o mutual_o together_o in_o all_o faithfulness_n that_o they_o be_v call_v one_o body_n and_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o least_o unfaithfulness_n one_o to_o the_o other_o since_o they_o have_v both_o vow_v and_o promise_v to_o god_n that_o they_o will_v constant_o be_v faithful_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o a_o thief_n therefore_o as_o i_o say_v and_o a_o robber_n take_v away_o a_o man_n good_n but_o a_o adulterer_n and_o adulteress_n incur_v the_o guilt_n of_o perjury_n and_o therefore_o steal_v that_o which_o belong_v to_o god_n and_o asmuch_o as_o in_o they_o be_v spoil_n and_o rob_v he_o for_o certain_o sacred_a wedlock_n be_v

speak_v the_o naked_a and_o simple_a truth_n true_o i_o see_v some_o in_o those_o most_o vehement_a pain_n and_o be_v take_v with_o extreme_a admiration_n that_o they_o shall_v desire_v to_o remain_v so_o long_o in_o so_o great_a anguish_n since_o some_o of_o they_o have_v depart_v this_o life_n many_o year_n before_o who_o whilst_o they_o live_v i_o do_v believe_v be_v both_o good_a and_o pious_a

they_o deserve_v wherefore_o this_o i_o from_o my_o heart_n do_v counsel_n all_o that_o we_o slight_v not_o purgatory_n but_o be_v speedy_o convert_v and_o serious_o reform_v ourselves_o certain_o if_o you_o do_v know_v how_o above_o measure_n valuable_a and_o profitable_a the_o present_a time_n be_v you_o will_v not_o esteem_v it_o so_o little_a nor_o suffer_v it_o to_o pass_v away_o so_o

discourse_v of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n how_o ready_a he_o be_v to_o show_v it_o to_o all_o in_o this_o life_n i_o fear_v on_o the_o other_o hand_n some_o will_v presume_v so_o upon_o it_o that_o
