will_v work_v great_a effect_n in_o such_o as_o use_v this_o an_o other_o sort_n of_o meditate_v of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n by_o way_n of_o reioyesinge_v as_o we_o use_v most_o common_o to_o contemplate_v the_o passion_n of_o our_o redeemer_n with_o compassion_n to_o break_v our_o heart_n with_o contrition_n and_o true_a repentance_n so_o may_v we_o to_o the_o same_o effect_n think_v

and_o for_o the_o advauncement_n of_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n who_o by_o the_o death_n passion_n and_o resurrection_n of_o his_o son_n our_o saviour_n have_v not_o only_o set_v we_o free_a from_o

death_n if_o it_o be_v often_o exercise_v will_v work_v in_o man_n such_o compunction_n as_o he_o shall_v not_o die_v without_o perfect_a repentance_n and_o so_o by_o a_o consequence_n obtain_v such_o remission_n as_o his_o sin_n shall_v not_o burden_v he_o for_o ever_o and_o seint_a augustin_n say_v that_o nothing_o more_o withdraw_v a_o man_n from_o sin_n than_o often_o to_o remember_v that_o he_o must_v die_v and_o seynt_a basil_n the_o great_a be_v ask_v what_o be_v philosophy_n answer_v that_o the_o definition_n of_o the_o principal_a philosophy_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o

say_v seynt_a augustin_n let_v man_n be_v ashamed_a to_o swell_v with_o pride_n sith_o christ_n his_o creator_n and_o redeemer_n be_v so_o humble_a as_o to_o suffer_v death_n for_o he_o the_o three_o help_n be_v the_o remembrance_n of_o sin_n comit_v and_o by_o god_n forgeven_v therefore_o when_o thou_o be_v tempt_v to_o sin_n consider_v with_o thyself_o weather_v thou_o have_v be_v culpable_a of_o that_o sin_n before_o or_o no._n if_o thou_o have_v not_o be_v so_o then_o impute_v it_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o thou_o be_v so_o preserve_v but_o if_o thou_o have_v offend_v therein_o before_o and_o by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n god_n have_v forgeven_v thou_o then_o think_v that_o he_o have_v do_z more_o for_o thou_o than_o if_o he_o have_v make_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n for_o seynt_a augustin_n say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a importance_n to_o justifye_v a_o sinner_n than_o to_o create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n of_o new_a the_o fourth_n preseruature_n be_v often_o to_o think_v and_o meditate_v of_o the_o last_o judgement_n or_o day_n of_o doom_n where_o upon_o seynt_a jerom_n write_v thus_o whether_o i_o sleep_v or_o
