for_o as_o his_o bless_a soul_n see_v on_o the_o one_o part_v the_o divinity_n and_o how_o worthy_a it_o be_v to_o be_v belove_v and_o serve_v of_o all_o creature_n and_o he_o love_v it_o with_o

see_v clear_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n both_o past_a present_a and_o to_o come_v and_o these_o be_v so_o many_o he_o see_v that_o every_o one_o of_o they_o be_v a_o great_a injury_n to_o the_o divinity_n and_o great_a despect_n and_o offence_n to_o his_o divine_a majesty_n he_o receive_v from_o hence_o so_o perpetual_a and_o continual_a grief_n that_o he_o be_v like_o a_o huge_a sea_n of_o grief_n so_o great_a and_o so_o inward_a that_o no_o tongue_n can_v speak_v they_o or_o understanding_n think_v or_o imagine_v they_o so_o as_o the_o love_n he_o have_v to_o the_o divinity_n be_v

people_n that_o procure_v and_o give_v he_o his_o death_n with_o so_o great_a hatred_n and_o envy_n 6._o the_o second_o conside_fw-la ration_n be_v to_o see_v and_o know_v clear_o and_o distinct_o

of_o his_o passion_n and_o of_o his_o death_n for_o he_o have_v they_o always_o as_o present_a as_o when_o he_o suffer_v and_o so_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o the_o grief_n of_o his_o whip_n of_o the_o crown_n of_o thorn_n and_o the_o torment_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o the_o scorn_v of_o his_o passion_n be_v not_o suffer_v by_o he_o be_v the_o four_o nail_n which_o inward_o pass_v through_o

cross_n thou_o must_v consider_v that_o he_o be_v crucify_v all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n &_o so_o thou_o will_v not_o marvel_v at_o what_o be_v write_v of_o he_o that_o he_o be_v never_o see_v to_o laugh_v yea_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n worthy_a of_o great_a consideration_n his_o fortitude_n and_o magnanimity_n that_o have_v his_o soul_n inward_o so_o drown_v and_o run_v through_o with_o so_o many_o sorrow_n and_o grief_n have_v notwithstanding_o courage_n to_o show_v outward_o a_o good_a countenance_n and_o to_o converse_v with_o all_o so_o mild_o &_o with_o so_o great_a affability_n

for_o it_o it_o will_v not_o have_v be_v a_o thing_n so_o much_o to_o be_v admire_v or_o if_o he_o have_v suffer_v it_o for_o person_n of_o great_a account_n and_o dignity_n as_o for_o angel_n or_o

without_o exclude_v any_o which_o if_o it_o have_v be_v only_o for_o his_o friend_n it_o have_v not_o be_v so_o much_o but_o to_o suffer_v it_o for_o his_o enemy_n and_o those_o who_o actual_o do_v offend_v he_o and_o abhor_v he_o without_o exclude_v even_o those_o who_o be_v torment_v he_o accuse_v and_o condemn_v he_o to_o death_n this_o do_v extol_v very_o much_o the_o charity_n of_o our_o
