talk_v in_o his_o court_n what_o a_o huge_a sum_n of_o money_n a_o certain_a knight_n in_o rome_n owe_v at_o his_o death_n and_o that_o all_o his_o good_n be_v to_o be_v sell_v to_o make_v payment_n

whatsoever_o other_o cause_n we_o may_v conceive_v let_v we_o ingenious_o acknowledge_v one_o cause_n of_o our_o sickness_n to_o be_v our_o sin_n for_o if_o we_o will_v prevent_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n by_o timely_a repentance_n and_o judge_v ourselves_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v judge_v of_o the_o lord_n but_o because_o man_n will_v not_o when_o they_o be_v in_o health_n think_v of_o he_o that_o give_v health_n therefore_o oftentimes_o they_o be_v sick_a and_o now_o and_o then_o also_o fall_v a_o sleep_n 11.30_o for_o even_o as_o malefactor_n which_o will_v not_o by_o gentle_a mean_n

and_o to_o water_v his_o couch_n with_o his_o tear_n the_o second_o note_n be_v that_o a_o great_a act_n of_o sin_n must_v be_v bewail_v with_o a_o great_a act_n of_o repentance_n i_o mean_v not_o that_o any_o pain_n or_o grief_n of_o we_o can_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o the_o least_o of_o our_o sin_n or_o that_o our_o contrition_n can_v be_v any_o cause_n of_o remission_n but_o only_o that_o where_o sin_n have_v abound_v there_o sorrow_n shall_v abound_v also_o that_o grace_n may_v superabound_v at_o the_o last_o ●0_n the_o schoolman_n show_v here_o that_o great_a grief_n may_v be_v consider_v two_o way_n according_a to_o a_o man_n appretiation_n and_o according_a to_o his_o intention_n 11._o as_o the_o patriarch_n jacob_n in_o his_o intention_n do_v lament_v his_o son_n josep_n hwhome_fw-mi he_o think_v to_o be_v dead_a more_o pitiful_o than_o he_o do_v any_o sin_n that_o we_o read_v of_o 37.34_o but_o in_o the_o appretiation_n or_o estimation_n which_o he_o have_v of_o the_o heinousness_n of_o sin_n certain_o he_o will_v rather_o have_v lose_v ten_o son_n than_o once_o have_v find_v against_o god_n therefore_o howsoever_o in_o intention_n sorrow_n for_o sin_n be_v none_o of_o the_o great_a yet_o in_o appretiation_n they_o will_v ever_o have_v it_o excessive_a but_o we_o need_v not_o borrow_v such_o uncoth_a word_n of_o the_o schoolman_n to_o express_v our_o
