among_o man_n yet_o be_v it_o nothing_o worth_a before_o god_n and_o why_o for_o god_n will_v be_v honour_v at_o our_o hand_n he_o will_v have_v man_n too_o enjoy_v their_o right_a in_o such_o wise_n as_o neither_o he_o be_v forget_v nor_o they_o as_o it_o be_v deface_v therefore_o if_o we_o will_v but_o only_o obey_v man_n and_o despise_v the_o thing_n which_o god_n will_v have_v too_o be_v as_o a_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n too_o himself_o what_o a_o deal_n be_v that_o then_o let_v we_o tend_v always_o too_o he_o and_o dedicate_v ourselves_o too_o he_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v his_o

that_o although_o they_o who_o we_o serve_v be_v so_o froward_a as_o we_o can_v tell_v how_o too_o content_v they_o and_o we_o have_v not_o any_o hope_n that_o ever_o we_o shall_v get_v the_o value_n of_o a_o button_n at_o their_o hand_n yet_o we_o must_v nevertheless_o perform_v our_o duty_n towards_o god_n and_o here_o we_o have_v too_o gather_v that_o in_o all_o thing_n which_o god_n command_v

that_o belong_v too_o the_o heritage_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n must_v it_o not_o needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v too_o unthankful_a if_o we_o consider_v not_o how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

of_o his_o wife_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n require_v nothing_o at_o the_o husband_n hand_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v love_v his_o wife_n in_o another_o text_n too_o the_o

as_o ourselves_o then_o if_o we_o think_v too_o be_v allow_v of_o god_n and_o charity_n reign_v not_o in_o we_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o the_o world_n may_v like_v well_o of_o we_o but_o all_o our_o

work_v all_o our_o work_v by_o she_o now_o then_o see_v that_o love_n be_v the_o true_a perfection_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o of_o all_o god_n child_n let_v we_o see_v what_o it_o import_v for_o if_o a_o man_n brag_v that_o he_o have_v it_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n have_v neither_o lowliness_n nor_o gentleness_n nor_o patience_n he_o make_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o liar_n who_o not_o

in_o such_o wise_n as_o all_o pride_n may_v be_v correct_v in_o we_o and_o therewithal_o enforce_v ourselves_o always_o too_o humility_n that_o we_o may_v be_v kind_a heart_a and_o fellowlyke_a with_o the_o faithful_a which_o can_v be_v do_v but_o by_o bear_v one_o with_o another_o the_o very_a heathen_a man_n have_v the_o skill_n too_o say_v that_o if_o we_o have_v the_o wit_n and_o discretion_n

that_o as_o paul_n allege_v afterward_o god_n have_v in_o his_o law_n set_v down_o a_o more_o general_a term_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n honour_n for_o god_n mean_v too_o do_v we_o too_o understand_v

nevertheless_o have_v a_o spiteful_a a_o proud_a and_o a_o lofty_a heart_n and_o despise_v the_o party_n who_o he_o serve_v but_o when_o as_o our_o lord_n command_v we_o too_o honour_v our_o father_n and_o moother_n therunder_o he_o mean_v too_o comprehend_v reverence_n and_o moreover_o a_o performance_n of_o all_o duty_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o child_n shall_v understand_v that_o they_o

of_o we_o all_o and_o also_o as_o manifest_v as_o may_v be_v howbeit_o besyd_n that_o which_o we_o know_v natural_o god_n add_v his_o own_o will_n for_o a_o further_o and_o more_o ample_a

under_o awe_n of_o our_o father_n and_o moother_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o unexcuzable_a if_o every_o of_o we_o submit_v not_o himself_o with_o meekness_n and_o

thereunto_o they_o have_v not_o the_o help_n that_o we_o have_v and_o yet_o they_o perform_v their_o duty_n that_o then_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o saint_n paul_n intend_v in_o say_v that_o child_n
