of_o isaiah_n a_o siren_n be_v a_o monster_n of_o the_o sea_n the_o head_n whereof_o resemble_v a_o virgin_n but_o the_o foot_n a_o fish_n and_o such_o a_o monster_n be_v all_o worldly_a delight_n the_o head_n whereof_o the_o beginning_n allure_v we_o as_o a_o amiable_a virgin_n but_o the_o foot_n the_o end_n devour_v we_o as_o a_o ravenous_a fish_n therefore_o as_o ulysses_n stop_v his_o ear_n and_o bind_v himself_o to_o the_o mast_n of_o the_o ship_n that_o he_o may_v not_o hea●e_v the_o siren_n song_n so_o must_v we_o stop_v our_o ear_n and_o refuse_v to_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o these_o charm_a siren_n charm_v they_o and_o sing_v they_o never_o so_o sweet_o yea_o we_o must_v bind_v ourselves_o to_o the_o mast_n of_o the_o ship_n that_o be_v to_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n 55_o every_o one_o of_o we_o say_v with_o our_o heavenly_a ulysses_n god_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v delight_v in_o any_o thing_n but_o in_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o the_o world_n be_v crucify_v unto_o i_o and_o i_o unto_o the_o world_n for_o the_o world_n and_o all_o worldly_a delight_n be_v liken_v to_o a_o hedgehog_n 23._o a_o hedgehog_n seem_v to_o be_v but_o a_o poor_a silly_a creature_n not_o likely_a to_o do_v any_o great_a harm_n yet_o indeed_o it_o be_v full_a of_o bristle_n or_o prickle_n whereby_o it_o may_v annoy_v a_o man_n very_o shrewd_o so_o worldly_a delight_n seem_v to_o be_v little_a or_o nothing_o dangerous_a at_o the_o first_o yet_o afterward_o as_o with_o bristle_n or_o prick_n it_o pierce_v through_o the_o very_a conscience_n with_o untollerable_a pain_n therefore_o we_o must_v deal_v with_o this_o delight_n as_o a_o man_n will_v handle_v a_o hedgehog_n the_o safe_a way_n to_o handle_v a_o hedgehog_n be_v to_o take_v he_o by_o the_o heel_n so_o must_v we_o deal_v with_o this_o delight_n as_o jacob_n take_v esau_n that_o rough_a hedgehog_n by_o the_o heel_n in_o like_a sort_n we_o must_v take_v worldly_a delight_n not_o by_o the_o head_n but_o by_o the_o heel_n consider_v not_o the_o beginning_n but_o the_o end_n of_o it_o that_o so_o we_o may_v never_o be_v deceive_v by_o it_o for_o though_o it_o have_v a_o fair_a show_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o have_v a_o black_a shadow_n at_o the_o last_o though_o it_o be_v sweet_a at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o be_v bitter_a at_o the_o last_o though_o it_o be_v drunkenness_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o be_v wormwood_n at_o the_o last●_n though_o it_o be_v naomie_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o be_v mara_fw-mi at_o the_o last_o though_o it_o be_v a_o song_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o siren_n at_o the_o last_o though_o it_o be_v a_o silly_a hedgehog_n at_o the_o first_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o sharp_a prickle_n at_o the_o last_o wherefore_o delight_v not_o

a_o promise_n in_o these_o word_n and_o he_o shall_v give_v thou_o the_o desire_n of_o thy_o heart_n first_o &_o he_o shall_v give_v thou_o then_o the_o desire_n last_o of_o thy_o heart_n delight_n
