god_n have_v rather_o live_v sin_n remain_v or_o not_o to_o destroy_v sin_n by_o his_o death_n he_o will_v answer_v that_o he_o will_v rather_o die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o one_o man_n be_v more_o grievous_a to_o god_n and_o trouble_v he_o more_o than_o the_o torment_n and_o death_n of_o god_n himself_o then_o if_o the_o sin_n of_o one_o man_n grieve_v he_o so_o much_o what_o grief_n shall_v we_o think_v that_o he_o undergo_v through_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n in_o general_n here_o we_o may_v perceive_v after_o what_o manner_n man_n trouble_v god_n by_o sin_v and_o where_o god_n be_v man_n or_o in_o a_o deify_v man_n there_o be_v no_o complaint_n of_o any_o thing_n but_o of_o sin_n neither_o do_v any_o thing_n else_o cause_n grief_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v or_o be_v do_v without_o sin_n

until_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n though_o he_o shall_v live_v to_o the_o last_o day_n and_o for_o ever_o from_o hence_o do_v and_o do_v arise_v the_o hide_a sorrow_n of_o christ_n which_o no_o man_n can_v either_o utter_v or_o know_v but_o only_o christ_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v both_o call_v and_o indeed_o be_v a_o hide_a sorrow_n and_o sure_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n proper_a to_o god_n who_o will_v have_v it_o so_o and_o delight_v therewith_o in_o man_n and_o be_v certain_o appertain_v to_o god_n for_o it_o do_v not_o belong_v to_o man_n neither_o be_v it_o in_o man_n power_n and_o where_o god_n can_v attain_v to_o this_o he_o hold_v it_o most_o dear_a and_o acceptable_a to_o he_o but_o to_o man_n it_o be_v most_o bitter_a and_o grievous_a all_o thing_n which_o be_v here_o

that_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v love_v for_o itself_o and_o not_o for_o reward_v therefore_o wheresoever_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o deify_v man_n shall_v be_v or_o be_v there_o also_o

what_o need_n be_v there_o then_o that_o he_o shall_v do_v any_o thing_n this_o life_n be_v not_o follow_v to_o this_o end_n that_o thence_o profit_v aught_o to_o arise_v or_o any_o other_o thing_n

be_v deceive_v christ_n have_v this_o life_n not_o for_o reward_v but_o for_o love_n and_o love_n make_v this_o life_n easy_a and_o not_o grievous_a cause_v it_o to_o pass_v away_o cheerfu_o and_o

that_o god_n do_v not_o love_v himself_o as_o himself_o for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n better_o than_o god_n god_n will_v love_v it_o and_o not_o himself_o for_o in_o this_o true_a light_n
