¶_o the_o remedy_n against_o the_o trouble_n of_o temptacyon_n ●here_o after_o follow_v four_o proufytable_a thing_n to_o have_v in_o mind_n which_o have_v be_v take_v out_o of_o y_z e_z three_o chapter_n of_o a_o devoute_a treatyse_n and_o a_o form_n of_o lyvinge_v that_o the_o dyscrete_a &_o virtuous_a richard_n hampole_a write_v to_o a_o devoute_a &_o a_o holy_a person_n for_o great_a love_n the_o first_o measure_n of_o thy_o lyf_v which_o be_v so_o short_a that_o unnethe_n it_o be_v any_o thing_n for_z we_o live_v here_o but_o in_o a_o point_n that_o be_v the_o least_fw-mi thing_n y_fw-mi it_o may_v be_v and_o for_o to_o say_v sothe_o our_o life_n be_v less_o than_o a_o point_n if_o we_o shall_v liken_v it_o to_o the_o life_n everla_a an_o other_o thing_n be_v the_o uncertaynte_n of_o our_o end_n for_o we_o wot_v not_o when_o we_o shall_v dye_v nor_o how_o we_o shall_v dye_v nor_o whether_o we_o shall_v go_v when_o we_o be_v deed_n and_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v that_o it_o be_v to_o we_o uncertain_a for_z he_o wyll_v that_o we_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o dye_v the_o three_o be_v y_o it_o we_o shall_v answer_v before_o the_o right_a wise_a juge_n of_o all_o the_o time_n y_fw-fr t_o we_o have_v be_v here_o how_o we_o have_v live_v what_o our_o occupacyon_n have_v be_v and_z what_o good_a we_o may_v have_v do_v when_o we_o have_v be_v idle_a therefore_o you_o e_o prophet_n say_a he_o have_v call_v the_o time_n against_o i_o that_o be_v for_o every_o day_n he_o have_v lent_fw-la we_o here_o to_o spend_v in_o good_a use_n as_o in_o penance_n and_o in_o god_n seruyce_n and_o if_o we_o waste_v it_o in_o erthly_a love_n and_o vanytee_n full_a grevous_o must_v we_o be_v deem_v and_o punyssh_v therefore_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o moo_v sorrow_n y_o it_o may_v be_v to_o we_o but_o if_o we_o enforce_v we_o to_o the_o contrary_a &_o set_v our_o herte_n to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o do_v good_a to_o all_o that_o we_o may_v in_o y_z e_z short_a while_n that_o our_o time_n last_v for_o each_o time_n y_fw-fr t_o we_o think_v not_o of_o god_n we_o may_v count_v it_o as_o lose_v the_o four_o be_v that_o we_o think_v how_o moche_n the_o joy_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v have_v which_o contynu_v in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o their_o end_n for_z they_o shall_v be_v brother_n &_o fellow_n with_o angel_n sing_v the_o king_n of_o joy_n in_o his_o beauty_n and_o shine_a majesty_n the_o which_o shall_v be_v to_o they_o above_o all_o the_o delight_n that_o any_o creature_n may_v think_v than_o to_o remember_v the_o great_a and_o intolerable_a sorrow_n pain_n &_o turmente_n which_o they_o shall_v have_v that_o love_v not_o god_n above_o all_o thing_n as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o this_o world_n many_o of_o that_o

with_o the_o devyll_n who_o they_o serve_v as_o long_o as_o god_n be_v in_o heaven_n with_o his_o servant_n that_o last_v ever_o ¶_o here_o follow_v and_o ensew_v a_o soverayne_a notable_a sentence_n

temptacyon_n for_o every_o virtue_n be_v prove_v by_o his_o contrary_n our_o enemy_n the_o fiend_n be_v besy_n day_n and_o night_n to_o tarry_v and_o travail_v good_a man_n and_o woman_n with_o
