happy_o will_v say_v he_o do_v not_o compare_v they_o for_o the_o honesty_n but_o only_o for_o the_o difficulty_n and_o wonderment_n of_o the_o work_n and_o certain_o for_o aught_o i_o see_v he_o

suppose_v those_o example_n to_o be_v as_o canonical_a as_o some_o will_v they_o be_v and_o see_v then_o not_o only_o to_o the_o person_n themselves_o compare_v but_o unto_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n how_o foul_a a_o indignity_n be_v offer_v when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o scripture_n propose_v to_o our_o view_n some_o famous_a example_n as_o a_o pattern_n of_o imitation_n it_o light_o commend_v such_o a_o one_o as_o no_o precedent_n of_o antiquity_n before_o neither_o of_o the_o posterity_n to_o come_v shall_v be_v able_a to_o afford_v the_o like_a as_o who_o can_v either_o raise_v up_o

with_o david_n in_o courage_n with_o samson_n in_o might_n and_o if_o sixtus_n have_v search_v through_o the_o scripture_n for_o some_o rare_a example_n and_o mirror_n of_o magnanimity_n do_v pick_v

from_o humanity_n as_o nature_n detest_v they_o for_o abominable_a and_o courage_n condemn_v they_o as_o argument_n of_o undoubted_a cowardice_n and_o certain_o i_o see_v not_o what_o manhood_n be_v require_v to_o slaughter_v a_o man_n in_o his_o chamber_n which_o every_o base_a and_o timorous_a mind_n may_v accomplish_v yea_o even_o he_o which_o can_v endure_v to_o see_v himself_o let_v blood_n for_o unto_o such_o kind_n of_o revenge_n no_o man_n for_o shame_n proceed_v but_o he_o who_o in_o great_a faintness_n and_o weakness_n of_o mind_n continual_o meditate_v of_o flight_n and_o escape_v yea_o but_o say_v sixtus_n again_o eleazar_n know_v both_o his_o manner_n of_o death_n and_o place_n of_o burial_n why_o therefore_o shall_v i_o think_v that_o his_o attempt_n be_v more_o courageous_a for_o where_o the_o hope_n of_o life_n be_v less_o the_o adventure_n and_o courage_n undoubted_o be_v more_o but_o he_o know_v so_o certain_o of_o his_o death_n that_o he_o can_v likewise_o divine_a of_o his_o grave_n but_o hardly_o i_o brook_v to_o hear_v of_o so_o foul_a a_o untruth_n that_o your_o friar_n be_v so_o sore_o afraid_a of_o certain_a death_n and_o uncertain_a torment_n for_o why_o your_o factor_n and_o agent_n in_o the_o cause_n have_v provide_v a_o double_a medicine_n to_o salve_v that_o fear_n for_o so_o wise_o they_o wrought_v to_o provoke_v this_o parricide_n to_o resolve_v upon_o execution_n that_o notwithstanding_o the_o adventure_n in_o sight_n be_v perilous_a yet_o both_o in_o regard_n of_o that_o policy_n which_o they_o have_v at_o home_o contrive_v as_o also_o of_o the_o furtherance_n and_o assistance_n which_o in_o the_o camp_n of_o the_o king_n they_o expect_v there_o be_v a_o double_a comfort_n minister_v at_o home_o they_o have_v so_o provide_v that_o so_o

so_o bridle_v the_o fury_n of_o the_o king_n friend_n that_o notwithstanding_o himself_o before_o be_v murder_v yet_o to_o ransom_n the_o life_n and_o liberty_n of_o their_o friend_n they_o will_v be_v content_a to_o dismiss_v the_o friar_n &_o send_v he_o back_o to_o paris_n again_o they_o persuade_v he_o that_o in_o the_o king_n own_o camp_n there_o be_v abundant_a hope_n of_o present_a

and_o at_o hand_n to_o assist_v he_o but_o the_o contrary_a part_n will_v be_v so_o amaze_v at_o the_o sudden_a alteration_n that_o every_o man_n will_v rather_o apply_v his_o wit_n how_o to_o save_v

the_o persuade_v and_o proceed_v with_o the_o friar_n who_o in_o a_o fool_n paradise_n and_o conceit_n of_o a_o certain_a return_n tanquam_fw-la asinus_fw-la ad_fw-la caedem_fw-la go_v forward_o to_o

put_v on_o a_o cowl_n but_o as_o we_o have_v compare_v he_o with_o eleazar_n let_v we_o join_v and_o match_v he_o with_o judith_n i_o speak_v not_o of_o a_o matrimonial_a conjunction_n for_o clement_n

even_o a_o little_a before_o his_o death_n so_o cry_v david_n upon_o his_o death-head_n against_o joab_n and_o shimei_n 8_o charge_v his_o son_n solomon_n that_o for_o the_o offence_n they_o have_v

have_v never_o exclame_v for_o vengeance_n on_o they_o but_o it_o lay_v not_o in_o his_o power_n to_o pardon_v they_o such_o offence_n as_o be_v commit_v against_o our_o private_a state_n or_o

therefore_o in_o reason_n the_o remission_n of_o such_o offence_n must_v be_v resign_v up_o only_o to_o god_n can_v not_o david_n pardon_v shimei_n which_o have_v but_o bare_o rail_v on_o he_o and_o

to_o remit_v he_o before_o he_o can_v not_o with_o equity_n pardon_v he_o then_o therefore_o well_o may_v he_o say_v to_o navarra_n as_o david_n say_v to_o solomon_n suffer_v not_o those_o murderer_n
