circumstance_n yet_o be_v not_o this_o second_o sin_n of_o equal_a fault_n with_o the_o former_a but_o much_o more_o grievous_a and_o consequentlye_o the_o three_o great_a than_o the_o second_o and_o so_o in_o order_n infinite_o increase_v the_o fault_n and_o punishment_n of_o every_o sin_n and_o the_o reason_n here_o of_o be_v because_o how_o much_o more_o time_n god_n grant_v unto_o the_o sinner_n for_o his_o conversion_n and_o return_v unto_o his_o grace_n so_o much_o the_o more_o increase_v his_o ingratitude_n while_o he_o use_v ill_o that_o time_n and_o rather_o offend_v he_o with_o new_a sin_n every_o day_n more_o and_o more_o ten_o the_o second_o evell_a be_v because_o when_o a_o man_n remain_v in_o one_o sin_n the_o way_n be_v make_v more_o easy_a for_o the_o fall_n into_o another_o for_o as_o s._n gregory_n say_v such_o be_v the_o burden_n of_o sin_n that_o if_o present_o it_o be_v not_o amend_v with_o the_o weight_n thereof_o it_o draw_v a_o man_n for_o to_o commit_v another_o sin_n and_o this_o other_o unto_o a_o three_o and_o so_o consequent_o there_o be_v make_v of_o many_o sin_n as_o it_o be_v a_o chain_n of_o many_o link_n whereof_o one_o draw_v the_o other_o and_o who_o pull_v one_o pull_v all_o for_o even_o so_o a_o man_n if_o fall_v into_o one_o sin_n he_o do_v not_o quick_o arise_v by_o little_a and_o little_o he_o fall_v into_o many_o other_o eleven_o the_o three_o evell_a be_v that_o he_o which_o be_v in_o mortal_a sin_n lose_v all_o the_o good_a work_n which_o he_o do_v because_o they_o avail_n not_o to_o obtain_v any_o merit_n of_o everlasting_a life_n and_o although_o he_o shall_v afterward_o return_v into_o god_n grace_n notwithstanding_o they_o be_v all_o lose_v wherefore_o without_o repentance_n of_o his_o sin_n he_o reap_v no_o fruit_n neither_o of_o a●mes_n nor_o of_o prayer_n nor_o of_o fast_n nor_o of_o indulgence_n no_o not_o of_o martyrdom_n itself_o and_o shed_v his_o blood_n for_o christ_n if_o that_o he_o be_v not_o

evell_a that_o sin_n cat_fw-mi faith_fw-mi unto_o the_o soul_n be_v that_o al●aies_v the_o gate_n of_o god_n mercy_n and_o pardon_n be_v more_o shut_v against_o it_o for_o unto_o the_o sinner_n there_o remain_v no_o other_o good_a or_o refuge_n but_o only_a faith_n and_o hope_v of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n but_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o he_o linger_v in_o sin_n by_o so_o much_o he_o be_v far_a of_o from_o mercy_n and_o approach_v unto_o god_n i●sti●●_n always_o provoke_v more_o his_o anger_n for_o to_o take_v revenge_n of_o his_o sin_n thirteen_o final_o as_o we_o see_v it_o happen_v in_o exterior_a thing_n that_o how_o much_o the_o more_o a_o spot_n in_o a_o garment_n be_v suffer_v to_o continue_v so_o much_o the_o hard_a it_o be_v afterward_o to_o take_v it_o away_o and_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o seldom_o a_o man_n comb_v and_o trim_v his_o hair_n by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o they_o be_v knot_v together_o and_o fill_v with_o filth_n so_o also_o a_o soul_n

also_o it_o be_v entangle_v with_o the_o multitude_n of_o sin_n and_o cast_v itself_o into_o so_o great_a anxietye_n that_o with_o great_a difficulty_n by_o never_o so_o skilful_a a_o confessor_n it_o may_v be_v free_v thereof_o and_o beside_o it_o engender_v &_o nourish_v in_o itself_o the_o worm_n of_o conscience_n which_o although_o it_o shall_v never_o feel_v in_o this_o life_n yet_o shall_v it_o in_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n be_v more_o fiercelye_a torment_v thereby_o and_o much_o more_o afterward_o in_o the_o other_o world_n where_o this_o worm_n shall_v never_o die_v and_o the_o

contrition_n confession_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o as_o a_o man_n in_o three_o manner_n sin_v and_o offend_v god_n that_o be_v with_o hart_n word_n &_o deed_n so_o be_v it_o mere_a that_o he_o submit_v himself_o unto_o the_o key_n of_o the_o church_n in_o those_o very_a thing_n wherewith_o he_o offend_v and_o that_o he_o force_v himself_o to_o pacify_v god_n wrath_n first_o with_o contrition_n of_o hart_n second_o with_o confession_n of_o mouth_n three_o with_o satisfaction_n of_o work_n of_o the_o first_o part_n of_o penance_n which_o be_v contrition_n chap._n 3._o 1._o contrition_n be_v a_o sorrow_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o a_o detestation_n of_o sin_n commit_v because_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n of_o god_n who_o we_o love_v above_o all_o thing_n with_o a_o firm_a purpose_n of_o change_v of_o life_n and_o not_o offend_v any_o more_o hereafter_o 2_o whence_o we_o do_v gather_v that_o it_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o a_o man_n that_o he_o may_v obtain_v grace_n only_o for_o to_o leave_v sin_n or_o to_o make_v a_o purpose_n of_o a_o new_a life_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o he_o have_v both_o the_o ●re_n and_o the_o other_o that_o be_v that_o he_o be_v ●●ry_v and_o ha●e_v a_o detestation_n of_o his_o life_n past_a and_o withal_o make_v a_o firm_a resolution_n of_o si●●ing_v no_o more_o and_o this_o sorrow_n it_o be_v nor_o necestary_n tha●_n it_o be_v sensible_a although_o this_o be_v also_o very_o good_a and_o profitable_a when_o it_o may_v be_v ●a●_n but_o that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o will_n which_o take_v displeasure_n and_o detestaion_n against_o the_o sin_n commit_v and_o resolve_v to_o commit_v it_o no_o more_o 3_o this_o sorrow_n also_o aught_o to_o be_v the_o great_a of_o all_o other_o sorrow_n because_o even_o as_o god_n for_o that_o he_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a aught_o for_o to_o be_v chief_o love_v and_o his_o love_n must_v be_v prefer_v before_o all_o other_o thing_n so_o also_o sin_n by_o which_o a_o man_n offend_v god_n be_v the_o chief_a evell_a wherefore_o it_o ought_v chief_o and_o above_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v hate_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o for_o nothing_o in_o all_o the_o world_n no_o not_o for_o to_o save_v our_o own_o life_n it_o be_v lawful_a any_o manner_n of_o way_n for_o to_o sin_n whereas_o our_o lord_n say_v who_o love_v his_o father_n or_o mother_n more_o than_o i_o be_v not_o

have_v offend_v god_n or_o ever_o more_o to_o offend_v he_o 4_o finallye_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o penitent_n carry_v a_o hatred_n towards_o all_o his_o sin_n commit_v and_o be_v sorry_a for_o the_o same_o for_o if_o he_o be_v penitent_a and_o sorrowful_a for_o some_o only_a &_o not_o for_o other_o this_o be_v not_o true_a penance_n but_o counterfeit_n and_o feign_a according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o s._n james_n who-soev_a shall_v keep_v the_o whole_a law_n but_o offend_v in_o one_o be_v make_v guilty_a of_o all_o 5_o furthermore_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o the_o end_n that_o it_o may_v be_v true_a contrition_n that_o a_o man_n ●o_o sorrow_n and_o repent_v for_o that_o which_o be_v past_a but_o he_o ought_v to_o make_v a_o firm_a and_o steadfast_a purpose_n of_o a_o

and_o sin_n no_o more_o 6_o to_o this_o contrition_n also_o if_o it_o be_v a_o true_a sorrow_n join_v with_o a_o purpose_n of_o amendment_n appertain_v a_o resolution_n of_o make_v satisfaction_n unto_o all_o such_o as_o we_o have_v in_o whatsoever_o manner_n offend_v whether_o it_o be_v in_o life_n or_o in_o good_n or_o in_o honour_n because_o as_o s._n augustine_n say_v sin_n be_v not_o
