other_o and_o fly_v in_o themselves_o fear_v death_n who_o servant_n and_o messenger_n they_o be_v 2_o the_o second_o cause_n be_v either_o the_o lack_n or_o the_o small_a quantity_n of_o faith_n in_o

who_o so_o be_v possess_v it_o can_v not_o be_v avoid_v but_o unto_o he_o the_o very_a remembrance_n of_o death_n which_o take_v from_o he_o that_o he_o love_v must_v be_v sour_a &_o bitter_a as_o the_o scripture_n say_v to_o say_v somewhat_o to_o these_o three_o thing_n which_o make_v life_n sweet_a &_o death_n sour_a be_v the_o three_o part_n of_o my_o matter_n which_o i_o promise_v to_o

man_n sith_o christ_n our_o patron_n be_v more_o than_o man_n confess_v to_o have_v some_o feel_v of_o it_o in_o himself_o but_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o he_o be_v weak_a to_o make_v we_o strong_a

contemn_v it_o triumph_v in_o torment_n conquer_a in_o weakness_n not_o say_v sad_a &_o heavy_a be_v my_o heart_n until_o death_n be_v past_a but_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v in_o the_o feel_v to_o

unto_o a_o faithful_a &_o christian_n man_n be_v it_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n that_o a_o christian_n man_n desire_v who_o be_v able_a to_o say_v i_o long_o to_o be_v dissolve_v be_v it_o
