ease_n content_v and_o rest_v and_o will_v not_o be_v offend_v for_o that_o i_o plain_o defend_v the_o honour_n of_o my_o god_n i_o proceed_v chap._n ix_o that_o hope_n in_o god_n be_v also_o necessary_a to_o the_o content_a and_o happiness_n of_o man_n but_o not_o only_a hope_n without_o other_o virtue_n and_o how_o act_n of_o hope_n make_v by_o catholic_n include_v sacrament_n and_o other_o virtue_n and_o not_o exclude_v they_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v save_v or_o find_v content_a without_o hope_n in_o god_n be_v manifest_a by_o reason_n first_o for_o that_o no_o man_n labour_v for_o that_o which_o he_o no_o way_n hope_v to_o obtain_v nor_o yet_o be_v careful_a to_o keep_v that_o which_o he_o esteem_v impossible_a to_o enjoy_v again_o upon_o want_n of_o hope_n arise_v despair_n and_o pusillanimity_n of_o mind_n both_o which_o be_v passion_n of_o sadness_n and_o discontent_n deprive_v we_o of_o the_o joy_n and_o content_v we_o seek_v after_o second_o it_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o scripture_n which_o in_o plain_a term_n affirm_v that_o by_o hope_n we_o 4._o rom_n 8._o 39_o rom._n 15._o 4._o be_v save_v again_o what_o thing_n soever_o have_v be_v write_v to_o our_o learning_n they_o have_v be_v write_v that_o by_o the_o patience_n and_o consolatiof_o the_o scripture_n we_o may_v have_v hope_n so_o saint_n paul_n say_v the_o 13._o rom._n 15._o 13._o god_n of_o hope_n replenish_v you_o with_o all_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v that_o you_o may_v abound_v in_o hope_n in_o the_o psalm_n it_o be_v say_v they_o that_o 124._o ps_n 124._o hope_v in_o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v confound_v again_o they_o that_o trust_v in_o 9_o ps_n 33._o 9_o our_o lord_n as_o mount_n zion_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v move_v for_o ever_o again_o bless_a be_v that_o man_n that_o hope_v in_o 4._o ps_n 36._o 4._o god_n again_o he_o will_v take_v they_o 144._o ps_n 144._o away_o from_o sinner_n and_o save_v they_o because_o they_o have_v hope_v in_o he_o whereby_o be_v manifest_a that_o without_o the_o virtue_n of_o hope_n no_o man_n can_v be_v happy_a or_o save_v but_o as_o we_o say_v before_o of_o only_a faith_n that_o faith_n without_o other_o

also_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o only_o hope_v without_o other_o virtue_n be_v a_o vain_a and_o dead_a hope_n without_o any_o true_a content_a in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o all_o eternity_n as_o be_v manifest_v first_o by_o reason_n because_o hope_n end_v with_o death_n so_o if_o the_o content_a and_o happiness_n of_o man_n shall_v consist_v in_o only_a hope_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o content_a in_o the_o other_o life_n second_o we_o see_v some_o few_o except_v who_o fall_v into_o utter_a despair_n that_o all_o man_n of_o all_o sect_n and_o sort_n and_o how_o wicked_a soever_o hope_v for_o happiness_n and_o content_a so_o if_o hope_n without_o the_o assistance_n of_o other_o virtue_n be_v sufficient_a to_o happiness_n man_n may_v be_v happy_a and_o wretched_a both_o together_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o experience_n three_o to_o hope_v for_o happiness_n be_v not_o to_o be_v happy_a since_o none_o hope_v for_o that_o he_o have_v but_o enjoy_v whereby_o be_v manifest_a that_o only_a hope_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o be_v happy_a again_o the_o scripture_n say_v not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v lord_n 21._o mat._n 7._o 21._o lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n again_o many_o shall_v say_v to_o i_o in_o that_o day_n 22._o mat._n 7._o 22._o lord_n lord_n have_v

use_v the_o mean_n he_o have_v ordain_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n unto_o foolish_a virgin_n who_o invite_v to_o a_o marriage_n neglect_v to_o prepare_v themselves_o for_o the_o marriage_n until_o it_o be_v too_o late_o and_o so_o be_v shut_v out_o with_o this_o answer_n amen_o i_o say_v to_o you_o i_o know_v you_o not_o 12._o mat._n 25._o 12._o whereby_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o
