be_v yet_o speak_v the_o cock_n crow_v again_o 14._o mat._n 26._o mar._n 14._o and_o our_o lord_n turn_v and_o behold_v peter_n and_o peter_n remember_v himself_o of_o the_o word_n of_o our_o lord_n 22._o luc._n 22._o as_o he_o have_v say_v that_o before_o the_o cock_n crow_v twice_o thou_o shall_v deny_v i_o thrice_o and_o peter_n go_v out_o of_o door_n weep_v bitter_o consider_v first_o that_o when_o peter_n be_v come_v again_o to_o the_o fire_n he_o begin_v to_o speak_v more_o free_o with_o the_o servant_n to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v take_v away_o all_o suspicion_n from_o himself_o for_o by_o his_o speech_n he_o be_v judge_v to_o be_v a_o galilaean_a thou_o therefore_o who_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n take_v heed_n of_o familiarity_n with_o the_o wicked_a let_v thy_o

thy_o outward_a conversation_n may_v know_v thou_o to_o be_v the_o follower_n of_o christ_n and_o a_o galilaean_a that_o be_v one_o fly_v from_o the_o worldly_a to_o a_o spiritual_a life_n and_o

thou_o be_v a_o most_o grievous_a sinner_n may_v have_v great_a hope_n of_o pardon_n see_v that_o the_o mercy_n of_o our_o lord_n give_v so_o free_a pardon_n for_o this_o grievous_a sin_n that_o

consider_v first_o when_o the_o high_a priest_n can_v draw_v nothing_o worthy_a of_o death_n from_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n than_o he_o ask_v the_o stander_n by_o who_o have_v be_v often_o at_o

because_o they_o be_v of_o great_a moment_n that_o by_o they_o thou_o may_v know_v the_o vanity_n of_o the_o other_o or_o else_o because_o they_o contain_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n which_o be_v then_o in_o handle_v but_o they_o be_v not_o convenient_a first_o because_o the_o witness_n can_v not_o agree_v together_o the_o one_o saying_n i_o will_v destroy_v and_o the_o other_o i_o can_v destroy_v second_o because_o our_o lord_n have_v speak_v no_o word_n of_o destroy_v and_o build_v again_o 12._o joan._n 12._o but_o he_o say_v dissolve_v and_o i_o will_v
