i_o can_v not_o tell_v but_o this_o i_o see_v there_o die_v so_o many_o young_a y_fw-fr ●_o there_o remain_v but_o a_o few_o old_a soul_n now_o thou_o tell_v a_o pretty_a thing_n must_v not_o all_o die_v at_o length_n just_a well_o i_o will_v grant_v thou_o that_o old_a age_n have_v not_o more_o of_o these_o dangerous_a infirmity_n than_o have_v any_o other_o age_n but_o of_o certain_a cough_n catarrh_n palseis_fw-mi and_o other_o disease_n which_o young_a man_n have_v not_o and_o old_a man_n be_v full_a what_o say_v thou_o now_o soul_n i_o say_v unto_o thou_o that_o they_o rather_o come_v of_o themselves_o than_o of_o age_n just_a how_o so_o soul_n if_o thou_o consider_v well_o the_o life_n of_o such_o as_o now_o be_v or_o have_v be_v in_o that_o age_n thou_o shall_v know_v it_o of_o thyself_o for_o thou_o shall_v find_v they_o man_n which_o either_o not_o consider_v their_o age_n and_o how_o less_o their_o power_n be_v to_o that_o they_o be_v young_a they_o will_v drink_v and_o eat_v as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v wont_a or_o peradventure_o more_o whereby_o nature_n for_o that_o occasion_n not_o be_v able_a to_o make_v digestion_n gender_n in_o they_o that_o superfluity_n that_o cause_v these_o accident_n or_o else_o in_o their_o youth_n have_v make_v so_o many_o disorder_n y_z t_z they_o have_v get_v these_o evyls_n which_o show_v themselves_o in_o age_n when_o they_o be_v more_o weak_a of_o nature_n but_o a_o old_a man_n that_o consider_v well_o his_o virtue_n how_o much_o and_o what_o it_o be_v and_o live_v orderly_o thereunto_o eat_v and_o drynk_n only_o so_o much_o as_o may_v restore_v his_o strength_n and_o not_o oppress_v he_o will_v live_v much_o more_o hole_n than_o a_o young_a man_n and_o thou_o know_v i_o have_v many_o time_n teach_v thou_o what_o way_n to_o use_v in_o it_o just_a then_o if_o a_o old_a man_n will_v be_v hole_n he_o must_v mark_v so_o many_o thing_n as_o he_o shall_v lose_v all_o his_o contentation_n for_o so_o thou_o have_v confess_v of_o thyself_o that_o this_o other_o blame_n which_o we_o gyve_v to_o this_o age_n that_o it_o take_v away_o all_o pleasure_n be_v not_o give_v for_o naught_o soul_n let_v we_o proceed_v in_o order_n that_o thou_o may_v see_v thou_o have_v not_o yet_o catch_v i_o do_v thou_o not_o remember_v that_o that_o i_o have_v say_v a_o other_o time_n that_o eat_v and_o drink_n and_o other_o thing_n come_v of_o some_o lack_n be_v no_o pleasure_n but_o as_o a_o man_n have_v need_n for_o when_o he_o be_v suffice_v they_o be_v unpleasant_a to_o he_o just_a if_o these_o be_v no_o pleasure_n there_o be_v enough_o of_o other_o that_o be_v take_v from_o she_o that_o she_o may_v well_o be_v blame_v and_o without_o respect_n soul_n rather_o ought_v she_o to_o be_v praise_v most_o for_o if_o thou_o consider_v well_o she_o deprive_v only_o those_o that_o be_v reprovable_a in_o other_o age_n just_a that_o will_v not_o i_o grant_v for_o a_o man_n that_o can_v have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o world_n be_v as_o though_o he_o be_v not_o soul_n true_a but_o what_o understand_v thou_o by_o pleasure_n just_a those_o delight_n which_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n bring_v with_o they_o know_v thou_o not_o that_o thou_o be_v like_o one_o bear_v yesterday_o &_o yet_o there_o be_v many_o year_n since_o we_o first_o meet_v together_o soul_n if_o thou_o understand_v of_o those_o pleasure_n that_o eat_v and_o drink_n bring_v &_o idleness_n with_o those_o vain_a &_o wanton_a thought_n that_o proceed_v of_o it_o just_a of_o what_o think_v thou_o i_o mean_v of_o those_o that_o we_o have_v by_o fast_v or_o labour_n or_o waste_v ourselves_o with_o study_n as_o some_o fool_n do_v soul_n thou_o be_v much_o deceive_v rather_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o that_o nature_n have_v not_o give_v to_o man_n as_o archita_n the_o tarentine_n pleasure_n say_v if_o thou_o remember_v of_o his_o life_n for_o i_o know_v thou_o haste_v red_a it_o oft_o a_o great_a nor_o more_o hurtful_a evil_a than_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n of_o the_o body_n just_a thou_o say_v so_o perhaps_o because_o the_o least_o part_n be_v thou_o soul_n rather_o because_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o whereof_o come_v for_o the_o most_o part_n treason_n of_o the_o country_n ruin_n of_o city_n enimity_n of_o man_n &_o other_o wickedness_n murder_n ravine_n of_o richesse_n and_o adultery_n but_o of_o volupt_a and_o

it_o fear_v not_o they_o as_o thou_o do_v say_v soul_n there_o be_v no_o such_o enemy_n as_o pleasure_n which_o of_o good_a reason_n be_v call_v of_o wise_a man_n the_o bait_n of_o all_o evil_a for_o

beast_n which_o lack_v reason_n think_v thou_o then_o that_o age_n be_v to_o be_v blame_v when_o she_o defend_v we_o from_o great_a enemy_n ▪_o take_v from_o they_o that_o force_n wherewith_o they_o offend_v just_a if_o it_o be_v as_o thou_o say_v but_o grant_v there_o be_v one_o man_n that_o have_v no_o pleasure_n be_v not_o he_o in_o deed_n as_o he_o be_v not_o alive_a or_o as_o a_o thing_n wtout_fw-fr sense_n soul_n yes_o but_o she_o take_v not_o all_o always_o from_o man_n but_o only_o those_o that_o be_v common_a with_o other_o beast_n just_a then_o what_o be_v they_o y_z e_z remain_z soul_n all_o they_o that_o be_v proper_o meet_v for_o man_n and_o be_v permit_v be_v by_o reason_n which_o principal_o be_v those_o delight_n that_o be_v take_v of_o operation_n which_o rise_v in_o

that_o thou_o pass_v not_o reasonable_a term_n but_o i_o will_v say_v unto_o thou_o that_o delight_n that_o be_v take_v in_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o talk_v withthy_a friend_n be_v much_o more_o acceptable_a to_o old_a age_n than_o to_o the_o other_o age_n just_a what_o be_v the_o cause_n soul_n because_o there_o be_v in_o old_a man_n more_o moderate_a appetite_n they_o fall_v not_o into_o drunkenness_n or_o any_o other_o alteration_n of_o the_o mind_n as_o young_a man_n do_v which_o have_v their_o will_n disordinate_a if_o they_o have_v not_o in_o their_o youth_n make_v then selue_o worse_o further_o they_o know_v to_o reason_n of_o more_o thing_n and_o better_a by_o the_o mean_a of_o time_n and_o experience_n and_o better_o enjoy_v the_o conversation_n of_o man_n &_o with_o much_o more_o sweetness_n embrace_v the_o presence_n of_o they_o than_o young_a man_n do_v for_o of_o their_o peer_n they_o be_v honour_v and_o of_o their_o less_o they_o be_v reverence_v which_o thing_n br_v they_o no_o small_a delight_n just_a if_o they_o have_v see_v many_o thing_n they_o remember_v few_o because_o memory_n in_o that_o age_n diminish_v much_o soul_n yea_o in_o they_o that_o

of_o himself_o more_o than_o other_o and_o other_o like_a want_n but_o when_o she_o lose_v any_o of_o her_o strength_n there_o increase_v so_o much_o for_o it_o in_o wit_n and_o judgement_n that_o they_o supply_v full_o for_o her_o the_o fruit_n which_o bring_v much_o more_o pleasure_n to_o old_a man_n than_o do_v armure_v horse_n hunt_n dance_n and_o such_o other_o that_o delight_n young_a man_n of_o the_o pleasure_n of_o venus_n i_o will_v not_o reason_n see_v there_o be_v nothing_o cause_v more_o error_n in_o man_n than_o it_o but_o these_o thing_n that_o i_o speak_v just_o come_v not_o to_o all_o old_a man_n but_o to_o they_o only_o that_o have_v so_o live_v in_o other_o age_n that_o their_o reputation_n and_o year_n have_v increase_v in_o they_o a_o like_a just_a which_o be_v they_o tell_v i_o soul_n the_o great_a part_n that_o thou_o shall_v not_o think_v they_o be_v as_o white_a crow_n for_o who_o so_o ever_o live_v

in_o any_o age_n though_o not_o all_o yet_o in_o part_n according_a to_o reason_n not_o be_v possible_a but_o he_o that_o be_v a_o man_n must_v err_v sometime_o so_o the_o error_n he_o make_v be_v comportable_a he_o be_v excuse_v of_o the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n &_o that_o age_n after_o of_o herself_o bring_v he_o such_o authority_n and_o reputatation_n that_o he_o be_v honour_v of_o every_o

man_n which_o thing_n be_v more_o worth_a than_o all_o the_o pleasure_n of_o any_o age_n just_a well_o i_o will_v prove_v thy_o opinion_n in_o this_o for_o i_o know_v the_o pleasure_n i_o have_v have_v some_o time_n when_o i_o have_v see_v myself_o honour_v for_o my_o age_n sake_n but_o to_o the_o other_o that_o more_o import_v than_o all_o the_o rest_n what_o say_v thou_o soul_n what_o be_v that_o just_a that_o we_o be_v nigh_o death_n soul_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o term_n and_o end_n of_o old_a age_n be_v death_n where_o natural_o to_o the_o other_o age_n it_o hap_v not_o so_o the_o end_n of_o childhode_n be_v youth_n the_o end_n of_o youth_n middle_a age_n the_o end_n of_o middle_a age_n old_a age_n nevertheless_o there_o be_v none_o of_o all_o these_o age_n can_v

now_o it_o seem_v thou_o know_v thy_o weal_n for_o of_o our_o discord_n shall_v come_v the_o evil_a of_o both_o us._n therefore_o let_v we_o apply_v to_o live_v together_o in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o let_v we_o ever_o hold_v before_o our_o eye_n these_o three_o thing_n the_o first_o that_o god_n be_v make_v man_n to_o advance_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o this_o dignity_n that_o man_n

be_v make_v his_o enemy_n through_o the_o fault_n of_o our_o first_o father_n the_o three_o be_v that_o we_o be_v mortal_a wherefore_o the_o two_o first_o like_z to_z spur_n of_o love_n do_v make_v we_o to_o go_v cheerful_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o our_o power_n through_o his_o most_o holy_a law_n for_o he_o shall_v be_v very_o hard_a that_o will_v not_o be_v kindle_v with_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n jesu_n our_o saviour_n if_o he_o consider_v he_o be_v make_v man_n for_o we_o and_o after_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n the_o third_o shall_v be_v a_o bridle_n of_o fear_n that_o shall_v not_o
