A00686	A briefe conference betwixt mans frailtie and faith wherein is declared the true vse, and comfort of those blessings pronounced by Christ in the fifth of Matthew, that euery Christian man and woman ought to make and take hold of in their seuerall tentations and conflicts: laide downe in this plaine order of dialogue, to helpe, if it please God, the conceit and feeling of the simplest.

argument_n of_o favour_n and_o succour_n and_o holowe_v smooth_a glaverie_n a_o note_n of_o reprooch_n and_o a_o argument_n to_o persuade_v the_o contrary_n now_o therefore_o let_v we_o gather_v uppe_o all_o these_o again_o together_o and_o if_o heathen_n hate_v it_o christian_n loathe_v it_o and_o the_o god_n of_o life_n and_o death_n abhor_v it_o what_o strength_n shall_v any_o cause_n in_o the_o earth_n have_v to_o tempt_v you_o unto_o it_o nay_o frailty_n how_o dare_v you_o for_o any_o favour_n or_o gain_v under_o the_o sun_n oppose_v your_o practice_n to_o his_o allowance_n who_o

your_o eye_n look_v with_o a_o other_o sight_n upon_o these_o thing_n and_o be_v assure_v if_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v assure_v that_o since_o honest_a heart_n and_o plain_a deal_n have_v a_o

be_v accurse_v if_o the_o pure_a in_o heart_n be_v bless_v as_o i_o have_v often_o now_o repeat_v and_o judge_v if_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n will_v want_v his_o effect_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o at_o first_o or_o at_o last_o but_o now_o if_o all_o this_o shall_v not_o yet_o full_o strengthen_v you_o which_o god_n forbid_v then_o proceed_v with_o the_o sentence_n in_o matthew_n and_o ponder_v well_o the_o other_o part_n also_o of_o it_o for_o they_o shall_v see_v god_n say_v it_o what_o be_v this_o but_o the_o lord_n shall_v reveile_v unto_o they_o daily_o more_o and_o more_o as_o a_o reward_n of_o their_o sincerity_n and_o honest_a walk_n his_o will_n his_o mercy_n his_o favour_n his_o comfort_n his_o joy_n prepare_v and_o all_o his_o goodness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n toward_o

that_o shall_v ever_o profit_v by_o read_v or_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n namely_o a_o pure_a heart_n that_o be_v even_o a_o sincere_a mind_n and_o upright_o purpose_n to_o learn_v of_o the_o
