our_o own_o proper_a sin_n we_o be_v by_o just_a sentence_n condemn_v to_o eternal_a pain_n of_o hell_n and_o banish_v for_o ever_o from_o glory_n and_o give_v up_o into_o the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n together_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o deliver_v we_o from_o he_o but_o only_o the_o son_n of_o god_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o other_o remedy_n suppose_v the_o divine_a ordination_n of_o god_n but_o his_o incarnation_n death_n and_o passion_n wherefore_o by_o every_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n and_o by_o every_o action_n of_o he_o

ponder_v very_o particular_o in_o every_o mystery_n of_o christ_n for_o every_o one_o by_o itself_o and_o every_o motion_n of_o he_o be_v sufficient_a to_o gain_v we_o all_o this_o profit_n but_o that_o his_o majesty_n will_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o abundance_n of_o his_o charity_n that_o our_o redemption_n may_v be_v more_o copious_a offer_v all_o his_o life_n death_n and_o passion_n as_o a_o total_a price_n of_o our_o redemption_n 3._o and_o here_o must_v be_v ponder_v beside_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o benefit_n these_o four_o point_n the_o first_o who_o be_v he_o that_o do_v it_o to_o wit_n the_o son_n of_o god_n himself_o who_o trouble_v no_o creature_n to_o redeem_v and_o deliver_v we_o but_o himself_o in_o person_n will_v do_v it_o the_o second_o that_o he_o bestow_v these_o benefit_n of_o we_o great_o to_o his_o own_o cost_n suffer_v so_o much_o for_o us._n the_o three_o the_o love_n wherewith_o he_o do_v it_o and_o the_o desire_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o the_o mind_n prepare_v to_o do_v much_o more_o if_o it_o have_v be_v necessary_a for_o us._n the_o four_o to_o consider_v every_o one_o of_o these_o benefit_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v do_v only_o to_o thyself_o and_o this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v to_o acknowledge_v and_o esteem_v the_o benefit_n and_o be_v mindful_a of_o it_o 4._o the_o second_o point_n must_v be_v to_o give_v thank_n to_o god_n very_o hearty_o for_o all_o he_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o for_o every_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n acknowledge_v that_o if_o all_o our_o member_n shall_v be_v convert_v into_o tongue_n and_o heart_n &_o shall_v praise_v he_o we_o shall_v not_o answer_v to_o the_o least_o drop_n of_o blood_n which_o he_o shed_v for_o we_o nor_o to_o the_o least_o of_o his_o labour_n which_o he_o suffer_v nor_o if_o we_o shall_v praise_v he_o as_o much_o as_o all_o the_o angel_n and_o man_n and_o all_o creature_n yet_o we_o shall_v come_v very_o short_a and_o therefore_o we_o must_v desire_v very_o hearty_o that_o all_o both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n will_v help_v we_o to_o praise_v he_o &_o we_o ought_v to_o invite_v they_o to_o it_o especial_o our_o angell-keeper_n and_o the_o saint_n to_o who_o we_o be_v most_o devote_a 5._o the_o three_o point_n be_v to_o answer_v with_o work_n to_o the_o benefit_n receive_v how_o great_a in_o gratitude_n will_v it_o be_v if_o to_o any_o person_n of_o who_o we_o have_v receive_v great_a benefit_n we_o may_v do_v some_o little_a service_n &_o will_v not_o do_v it_o and_o so_o thou_o must_v make_v firm_a purpose_n to_o do_v whatsoever_o thou_o do_v understand_v to_o be_v please_v to_o christ_n our_o lord_n and_o thou_o must_v be_v very_o sorry_a that_o thou_o have_v not_o do_v so_o already_o and_o these_o purpose_n must_v be_v very_o free_a from_o any_o interest_n for_o although_o he_o be_v to_o give_v thou_o no_o reward_n at_o all_o it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o it_o be_v so_o due_a unto_o he_o and_o that_o he_o have_v so_o much_o descrue_v it_o to_o show_v thyself_o grateful_a 6._o beside_o these_o three_o point_n remember_v to_o be_v thankful_a to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o all_o the_o bless_a trinity_n for_o all_o the_o benefit_n bestow_v upon_o the_o humanity_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v reason_n that_o the_o child_n be_v grateful_a for_o the_o benefit_n do_v unto_o their_o father_n as_o if_o they_o be_v do_v to_o themselves_o and_o the_o member_n must_v be_v thankful_a for_o the_o benefit_n do_v to_o the_o head_n especial_o for_o all_o the_o benefit_n and_o grace_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n do_v turn_v to_o our_o profit_n for_o he_o make_v we_o participate_v of_o they_o all_o §._o four_o of_o the_o affect_n of_o admiration_n admiration_n be_v cause_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v rare_a extraordinary_a and_o marvellous_a for_o see_v it_o and_o not_o know_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o a_o man_n remain_v astonish_v &_o desirous_a to_o know_v it_o the_o which_o in_o nothing_o in_o the_o world_n have_v place_n more_o then_o in_o the_o divine_a mystery_n for_o all_o of_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o very_o marvellous_a therefore_o the_o prophet_n esay_n say_v that_o christ_n shall_v be_v call_v admirable_a because_o all_o thing_n in_o he_o be_v so_o very_o great_a and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o cause_v admiration_n in_o we_o it_o be_v because_o though_o we_o belecue_v they_o by_o faith_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o consider_v they_o with_o attention_n and_o hereof_o it_o proceed_v that_o when_o with_o most_o attention_n we_o consider_v they_o they_o seem_v new_a unto_o we_o as_o if_o we_o have_v not_o know_v they_o before_o and_o then_o they_o cause_v admiration_n in_o we_o &_o so_o much_o the_o more_o by_o how_o much_o we_o do_v consider_v they_o with_o attention_n 2._o and_o here_o upon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v also_o that_o they_o who_o be_v very_o contemplative_a and_o who_o our_o saniour_n do_v illuminate_v with_o particular_a light_n in_o their_o soul_n to_o see_v the_o divine_a mystery_n of_o pure_a admiration_n they_o remain_v absorb_v and_o so_o elevate_v that_o many_o time_n they_o remain_v without_o their_o sense_n &_o so_o this_o affect_n be_v proper_a to_o prayer_n for_o every_o thing_n consider_v in_o it_o be_v worthy_a to_o cause_v admiration_n as_o to_o consider_v the_o greatness_n of_o god_n his_o majesty_n his_o power_n his_o wisdom_n his_o justice_n his_o mercy_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o attribute_n and_o perfection_n 3._o but_o particular_o in_o the_o holy_a mystery_n of_o christ_n our_o saviour_n that_o which_o must_v cause_v admiration_n be_v to_o consider_v those_o inestimable_a riches_n of_o charity_n with_o which_o god_n love_v man_n who_o have_v one_o only_o son_n which_o be_v all_o his_o delight_n and_o not_o have_v nor_o be_v possible_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v any_o other_o give_v he_o for_o our_o remedy_n &_o consent_v that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v so_o many_o labour_n and_o torment_n and_o give_v his_o life_n for_o they_o and_o that_o the_o son_n himself_o love_v they_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v have_v offer_v himself_o with_o a_o very_a good_a will_n to_o have_v suffer_v all_o that_o he_o suffer_v for_o he_o esteem_v man_n so_o much_o that_o the_o whole_a b._n trinity_n employ_v themselves_o for_o their_o remedy_n god_n the_o father_n send_v his_o son_n the_o son_n make_v himself_o man_n &_o suffer_v &_o die_v for_o they_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o incarnation_n 4._o admire_v also_o much_o to_o see_v
merit_n which_o he_o get_v with_o they_o as_o if_o for_o he_o only_o he_o have_v suffer_v and_o so_o thou_o ought_v to_o consider_v this_o one_o thing_n which_o be_v so_o indeed_o that_o when_o christ_n suffer_v he_o have_v thou_o as_o present_v in_o his_o memory_n as_o if_o thou_o have_v be_v there_o real_o present_a &_o he_o have_v also_o present_a before_o his_o eye_n all_o thy_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o set_v his_o eye_n upon_o thou_o and_o say_v with_o great_a love_n and_o tenderness_n for_o thou_o o_o man_n and_o for_o thy_o sin_n i_o suffer_v this_o and_o i_o suffer_v it_o willing_o for_o thy_o salvation_n and_o remedy_n of_o thy_o soul_n with_o great_a desire_n that_o thou_o profit_v thyself_o by_o it_o and_o know_v certain_o that_o if_o for_o thou_o only_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o suffer_v all_o this_o and_o much_o more_o i_o love_v thou_o so_o dear_o that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o suffer_v for_o thou_o alone_o and_o this_o be_v so_o it_o be_v most_o just_a that_o every_o one_o take_v to_o himself_o that_o which_o christ_n suffer_v and_o make_v account_n of_o it_o so_o do_v the_o glorious_a apostle_n s._n paul_n when_o he_o say_v i_o live_v in_o the_o say_v of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o love_v i_o and_o die_v for_o i_o §._o four_o for_o why_o 1._o the_o four_o circumstance_n be_v to_o consider_v for_o why_o that_o be_v for_o what_o cause_n our_o savour_n suffer_v all_o this_o the_o precedent_n who_o give_v the_o sentence_n after_o he_o have_v very_o well_o examine_v his_o cause_n do_v affirm_v thrice_o that_o he_o find_v no_o cause_n at_o all_o either_o to_o condemn_v he_o or_o give_v he_o any_o punishment_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v so_o that_o he_o have_v not_o any_o fault_n for_o he_o be_v most_o innocent_a not_o know_v what_o sin_n be_v never_o do_v harm_n to_o any_o but_o good_a to_o all_o so_o that_o the_o cause_n be_v well_o examine_v it_o be_v find_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o of_o his_o part_n but_o his_o bounty_n and_o mercy_n and_o those_o bowel_n of_o infinite_a charity_n with_o which_o he_o take_v compassion_n of_o the_o misery_n of_o man_n who_o be_v all_o condemn_v to_o eternal_a death_n and_o have_v no_o possibility_n to_o be_v deliver_v from_o this_o sentence_n and_o all_o that_o he_o suffer_v be_v only_o to_o do_v good_a unto_o man_n &_o to_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o their_o offence_n and_o from_o eternal_a pain_n which_o they_o deserve_v for_o they_o without_o any_o necessity_n profit_n or_o interest_n of_o his_o part_n 2._o and_o conformable_a to_o this_o you_o must_v consider_v very_o well_o as_o you_o meditate_v any_o thing_n that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v that_o he_o suffer_v it_o of_o his_o own_o free_a will_n &_o may_v have_v excuse_v it_o if_o he_o will_v and_o he_o will_v not_o but_o suffer_v so_o great_a pain_n and_o torment_n only_o for_o our_o good_a this_o be_v the_o cause_n which_o be_v of_o his_o part_n for_o which_o he_o suffer_v to_o wit_n his_o bounty_n his_o mercy_n his_o charity_n and_o love_n but_o of_o our_o part_n there_o be_v our_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o suffering_n and_o so_o when_o you_o meditate_v how_o they_o apprehend_v our_o saviour_n accuse_v he_o besett_n he_o spit_v upon_o he_o whip_v and_o scourge_v he_o with_o all_o the_o rest_n consider_v that_o thou_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o that_o and_o that_o they_o be_v thy_o sin_n that_o accuse_v he_o and_o abuse_v he_o and_o give_v testimony_n unto_o the_o process_n that_o he_o may_v be_v judge_v to_o death_n and_o put_v upon_o the_o cross_n §._o v._o of_o who_o the_o five_o circumstance_n be_v to_o consider_v of_o who_o he_o suffer_v that_o be_v who_o be_v they_o that_o inflict_v those_o pain_n upon_o he_o and_o in_o this_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o point_n follow_v 1._o first_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o own_o choose_a and_o elect_v people_n of_o who_o he_o in_o particular_a be_v lord_n and_o king_n to_o who_o he_o have_v be_v promise_v so_o many_o year_n since_o who_o he_o bring_v out_o of_o captivity_n of_o egypt_n with_o so_o great_a miracle_n and_o prodigious_a wonder_n to_o who_o himself_o give_v the_o law_n write_v with_o his_o finger_n who_o he_o sustain_v forty_o year_n with_o bread_n from_o heaven_n to_o who_o he_o give_v the_o land_n of_o promise_n who_o he_o honour_v so_o much_o as_o to_o take_v flesh_n of_o their_o lineage_n and_o come_v in_o person_n to_o preach_v unto_o they_o and_o teach_v they_o 2._o the_o seçond_n that_o he_o suffer_v of_o they_o to_o who_o he_o have_v do_v so_o great_a good_a and_o give_v so_o many_o benefit_n raise_v their_o dead_a deliver_v their_o possess_a during_o their_o disease_a and_o converse_v amongst_o they_o with_o such_o love_n and_o benevolence_n 3._o the_o three_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o cruel_a enemy_n who_o for_o the_o space_n of_o two_o year_n have_v seek_v his_o life_n and_o to_o dishonour_v he_o &_o will_v have_v drink_v his_o blood_n so_o great_a be_v their_o hatred_n and_o detestation_n towards_o he_o and_o to_o these_o he_o commit_v himself_o willing_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v use_v he_o at_o their_o pleasure_n 4._o the_o four_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o most_o vile_a &_o base_a vassal_n of_o no_o account_n at_o all_o without_o any_o shame_n measure_n or_o any_o other_o respect_n for_o doubtless_o they_o who_o do_v torment_v he_o be_v the_o public_a executioner_n who_o be_v wont_a to_o punish_v the_o malefactor_n if_o it_o be_v not_o that_o perhaps_o the_o chief_a priest_n do_v commit_v this_o to_o some_o base_a servant_n of_o their_o own_o that_o they_o may_v torment_v he_o with_o the_o more_o cruelty_n of_o he_o that_o give_v he_o the_o buffet_n say_v s._n john_n the_o evangelist_n that_o he_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o so_o we_o may_v think_v other_o be_v also_o who_o torment_v he_o but_o howsoever_o we_o see_v they_o be_v base_a fellow_n and_o slave_n very_o poor_a and_o abject_a for_o they_o part_v his_o poor_a garment_n in_o four_o part_n among_o they_o 5._o the_o five_o that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n suffer_v of_o all_o kind_n of_o people_n gentile_n and_o jew_n of_o great_a and_o small_a of_o the_o principal_a &_o of_o the_o common_a sort_n all_o it_o seem_v concur_v against_o he_o and_o those_o who_o six_o day_n before_o have_v do_v he_o so_o great_a honour_n receive_v he_o with_o palm_n and_o cry_v out_o that_o he_o be_v king_n of_o israël_n now_o they_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o all_o his_o miracle_n be_v devise_n &_o craft_n and_o that_o he_o pretend_v to_o usurp_v the_o kingdom_n and_o now_o they_o desire_v to_o have_v he_o crucify_v and_o that_o the_o thief_n and_o homicide_n barrabas_n shall_v be_v set_v free_a 6._o the_o sixth_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o own_o disciple_n which_o be_v not_o the_o least_o of_o his_o pain_n to_o see_v that_o the_o disciple_n who_o he_o have_v teach_v so_o long_o and_o bring_v up_o under_o

his_o enemy_n and_o final_o he_o suffer_v even_o of_o his_o own_o mother_n for_o although_o the_o most_o bless_a virgin_n mary_n have_v no_o fault_n at_o all_o but_o very_o great_a merit_n in_o be_v present_a at_o the_o passion_n of_o her_o son_n yet_o with_o her_o presence_n she_o do_v increase_v great_o his_o grief_n &_o pain_n in_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v have_v suffer_v they_o double_a not_o to_o have_v see_v that_o which_o his_o mother_n suffer_v and_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v pass_v all_o this_o that_o our_o redemption_n may_v be_v more_o copious_a although_o so_o great_o to_o his_o cost_n and_o cost_v of_o his_o most_o bless_a mother_n §._o vi_o how_o the_o sixth_o circumstance_n be_v how_o he_o suffer_v in_o the_o which_o there_o be_v three_o point_n to_o be_v consider_v 1._o the_o first_o that_o he_o suffer_v with_o exceed_a great_a charity_n in_o so_o much_o that_o although_o the_o work_n he_o wrought_v be_v so_o excellent_a and_o great_a and_o so_o excessive_a the_o pain_n he_o suffer_v yet_o we_o must_v rather_o ponder_v the_o manner_n how_o he_o suffer_v they_o than_o what_o he_o suffer_v for_o how_o much_o soever_o it_o be_v he_o suffer_v
