and_o other_o truth_n or_o thing_n of_o this_o quality_n which_o the_o least_o and_o of_o you_o be_v capable_a of_o now_o he_o that_o love_v god_n above_o all_o thing_n god_n especial_o if_o he_o have_v do_v it_o long_o can_v choose_v but_o desire_v to_o know_v and_o see_v he_o who_o he_o love_v so_o much_o wherefore_o when_o he_o die_v and_o have_v no_o more_o any_o distraction_n dispose_n by_o his_o sense_n he_o be_v whole_o set_v upon_o that_o object_n and_o so_o extreme_o miserable_a unless_o he_o and_o can_v obtain_v it_o wherefore_o if_o god_n be_v not_o hard-hearted_a as_o

have_v to_o love_v be_v god_n s._n yes_o for_o see_v we_o natural_o love_v that_o which_o be_v good_a as_o good_a meat_n good_a drink_n good_a all-good_n clothes_n etc._n etc._n and_o god_n be_v

we_o all_o we_o have_v by_o which_o we_o know_v he_o love_v we_o and_o for_o both_o these_o cause_n be_v to_o be_v love_v by_o we_o and_o m._n very_o well_o and_o you_o may_v add_v that_o we_o be_v like_o he_o be_v bear_v make_v whole_o to_o his_o image_n and_o thing_n that_o be_v like_o one_o another_o be_v apt_a to_o love_v one_o another_o as_o we_o see_v all_o creature_n love_v their_o own_o

yourself_o know_v you_o why_o you_o be_v to_o do_v so_o s._n sir_n not_o well_o m._n why_o do_v you_o not_o see_v that_o all_o knife_n be_v to_o cut_v hammer_n god_n to_o knock_v and_o therefore_o who_o will_v have_v a_o hammer_n to_o cut_v or_o knife_n to_o knock_v be_v out_o of_o ●●ason_n so_o likewise_o all_o man_n be_v of_o one_o nature_n be_v for_o one_o ●nd_v and_o fit_a for_o the_o

unreasonable_a and_o if_o he_o wish_v the_o like_a to_o his_o neighbour_n as_o to_o himself_o he_o love_v he_o as_o himself_o but_o tell_v i_o now_o he_o that_o love_v god_n have_v he_o not_o reason_n to_o hope_v he_o shall_v see_v god_n s._n yes_o sir_n since_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o who_o love_v god_n shall_v see_v god_n no_o doubt_n but_o he_o have_v reason_n
that_o something_o be_v make_v by_o god_n therefore_o see_v god_n can_v do_v whatever_o any_o thing_n make_v by_o he_o it_o be_v clear_a he_o can_v almighty_a do_v all_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o be_v almighty_a but_o tell_v i_o now_o do_v himself_o you_o think_v when_o god_n do_v a_o thing_n he_o know_v what_o he_o do_v s._n it_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o doubt_v of_o that_o since_o we_o account_v he_o a_o fool_n who_o know_v not_o what_o he_o do_v beside_o since_o god_n make_v we_o know_v what_o we_o do_v and_o be_v or_o himself_o perfect_a than_o we_o he_o must_v needs_o know_v what_o he_o do_v even_o better_o than_o we_o m._n and_o he_o that_o know_v a_o do_v thing_n do_v not_o he_o know_v what_o that_o thing_n can_v do_v for_o example_n can_v a_o man_n know_v a_o knife_n or_o a_o

any_o work_n of_o he_o can_v do_v m._n see_v again_o how_o you_o show_v allknowing_a that_o god_n know_v all_o thing_n for_o since_o he_o know_v what_o himself_o make_v and_o what_o all_o the_o thing_n he_o make_v can_v do_v and_o nothing_o be_v or_o can_v be_v do_v but_o what_o himself_o and_o they_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o god_n know_v all_o and_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v great_a and_o little_a to_o the_o number_n of_o the_o thought_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n to_o the_o division_n of_o dust_n and_o sand_n and_o whatever_o else_o be_v do_v nay_o and_o wherhfore_n what_o can_v be_v do_v though_o it_o neither_o be_v nor_o ever_o will_v be_v do_v but_o now_o tell_v i_o do_v you_o know_v by_o your_o body_n or_o by_o your_o soul_n s._n by_o my_o soul_n m._n and_o wherein_o differ_v your_o spirit_n soul_n from_o your_o body_n be_v it_o not_o in_o this_o that_o your_o body_n have_v many_o part_n and_o take_v up_o room_n or_o place_n your_o soul_n on_o the_o contrary_a be_v indivisible_a and_o want_v no_o place_n nor_o have_v any_o part_n but_o be_v a_o spirit_n s._n all_o this_o i_o remember_v to_o have_v learn_v now_o you_o put_v i_o in_o mind_n of_o it_o m._n then_o see_v you_o sin_v that_o god_n know_v all_o thing_n what_o do_v judge_v he_o to_o be_v s._n certain_o a_o spirit_n but_o yet_o spirit_n i_o know_v not_o well_o what_o a_o spirit_n be_v nor_o what_o conceit_n or_o apprehension_n to_o make_v of_o it_o m._n do_v you_o conceive_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o these_o word_n mind_n understanding_n wit_n think_v knowledge_n etc._n etc._n if_o you_o do_v you_o have_v make_v some_o apprehension_n of_o a_o spirit_n it_o suffice_v then_o at_o present_a to_o conceive_v god_n to_o be_v and_o such_o a_o thing_n that_o he_o be_v a_o knowledge_n and_o work_n by_o it_o but_o tell_v i_o be_v god_n a_o spirit_n join_v with_o a_o body_n as_o our_o soul_n be_v or_o a_o pure_a spirit_n without_o anybody_o s._n methinks_v if_o god_n be_v make_v necessary_a up_o of_o spirit_n and_o body_n there_o be_v no_o impossibility_n i●_z he_o but_o his_o spirit_n may_v be_v without_o his_o body_n and_o so_o god_n may_v die_v or_o not_o be_v which_o make_v against_o the_o necessity_n spirit_n of_o his_o be_v always_o former_o prove_v m._n but_o yet_o this_o mind_n or_o spirit_n must_v have_v the_o perfection_n of_o all_o body_n in_o it_o since_o as_o be_v already_o show_v it_o can_v do_v whatever_o all_o body_n can_v s._n this_o be_v very_o clear_a in_o my_o mind_n m._n then_o you_o see_v that_o god_n be_v imaginable_a a_o pure_a spirit_n or_o mind_n contain_v in_o itself_o the_o nature_n and_o perfection_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v all_o be_v and_o all_o goodness_n here_o the_o catechist_n aught_o to_o exhart_o the_o cathecumen_n

omnipotence_n and_o to_o the_o love_n of_o he_o out_o of_o his_o all-goodness_n second_o conference_n m._n you_o remember_v you_o tell_v i_o that_o god_n almighty_a therefore_o make_v adam_n can_v you_o tell_v i_o why_o he_o make_v he_o and_o first_o ada_z whether_o he_o want_v he_o s._n no_o sir_n he_o can_v not_o want_v he_o for_o see_v he_o be_v all-goodness_n he_o can_v want_v no_o good_a
