by_o his_o work_n which_o how_o much_o the_o great_a they_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o they_o make_v we_o know_v he_o and_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o certain_a that_o among_o all_o the_o work_n of_o god_n the_o great_a without_o comparison_n be_v the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o eternal_a word_n which_o be_v that_o the_o most_o high_a god_n become_v man_n for_o man_n love_n and_o so_o

&_o other_o perfection_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o ladder_n which_o the_o patriarche_n jacob_n do_v see_v by_o which_o the_o angel_n ascend_v and_o descend_v for_o that_o by_o this_o way_n spiritual_a and_o devout_a man_n ascend_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o by_o the_o same_o way_n they_o descend_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o themselves_o 2._o secondlie_o because_o it_o be_v universallie_o profitable_a to_o all_o sort_n of_o person_n as_o well_o to_o those_o that_o begin_v as_o to_o those_o that_o be_v perfect_a for_o that_o it_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o

filthiness_n of_o their_o own_o sin_n to_o bewail_v they_o &_o have_v they_o in_o horror_n 3._o thirdlie_o because_o a_o true_a christian_a man_n ought_v always_o to_o go_v after_o christ_n and_o to_o

sight_n but_o do_v meditate_v all_o the_o passage_n and_o mystery_n of_o his_o most_o holy_a life_n which_o for_o those_o that_o be_v virtuous_a and_o good_a be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o most_o sweet_a balm_n pour_v out_o that_o in_o every_o time_n and_o place_n do_v always_o cast_v from_o itself_o a_o most_o pleasant_a savour_n of_o holy_a humility_n of_o charity_n of_o devotion_n of_o compassion_n and_o of_o all_o virtue_n and_o therefore_o as_o he_o that_o by_o proffession_n do_v still_o handle_v some_o sweet_a thing_n always_o give_v smell_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o touch_v so_o likewise_o whoesoever_o converse_v and_o deal_v with_o christ_n in_o this_o manner_n do_v many_o time_n cast_v forth_o a_o savour_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v he_o come_v to_o imitate_v he_o in_o humility_n in_o charity_n in_o obedience_n in_o patience_n and_o in_o all_o his_o other_o virtue_n 4._o fourthlie_o because_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o imitate_v and_o follow_v the_o

any_o thing_n unless_o he_o often_o look_v &_o cast_v his_o eye_n upon_o that_o which_o he_o be_v to_o draw_v out_o so_o be_v it_o not_o possible_a that_o a_o christian_a man_n can_v resemble_v and_o

necessary_a to_o look_v often_o upon_o the_o example_n therefore_o god_n say_v behold_v and_o make_v for_o even_o as_o a_o painter_n do_v often_o cast_v his_o eye_n on_o that_o he_o be_v to_o draw_v

thing_n well_o then_o to_o make_v it_o new_a at_o the_o first_o 2._o because_o god_n do_v show_v far_o great_a love_n in_o the_o reparation_n of_o man_n then_o in_o the_o creation_n of_o he_o for_o that_o before_o man_n be_v make_v he_o have_v do_v nothing_o yet_o by_o which_o he_o may_v deserve_v not_o to_o be_v make_v but_o after_o that_o he_o be_v make_v and_o have_v through_o sin_n offend_v god_n he_o deserve_v to_o lose_v his_o first_o be_v and_o therefore_o this_o pity_n bountifulness_n benignity_n and_o charity_n of_o god_n be_v infinite_a when_o with_o the_o death_n of_o his_o own_o only_o beget_v son_n he_o renew_v and_o restore_v man_n who_o have_v deserve_v to_o be_v bring_v to_o nothing_o 3._o because_o in_o this_o benefit_n god_n have_v give_v we_o lesus_fw-la christ_n god_n and_o man_n so_o that_o how_o much_o more_o he_o be_v worth_a than_o all_o other_o creature_n so_o much_o great_a be_v the_o obligation_n we_o have_v for_o christ_n then_o for_o all_o other_o creature_n 4._o because_o by_o this_o mean_v god_n deliver_v man_n from_o infinite_a evil_n cause_v his_o son_n to_o enter_v into_o a_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o torment_n of_o pain_n and_o of_o danger_n who_o with_o his_o death_n do_v purchase_v for_o we_o innumerable_a good_n so_o that_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o god_n infinite_o for_o the_o seven_o thing_n that_o follow_v 1._o because_o he_o have_v deliver_v he_o from_o infinite_a evil_n 2._o because_o he_o have_v purchase_v for_o he_o infinite_a good_n 3._o for_o the_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v use_v of_o the_o incarnation_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n 4._o for_o the_o infinite_a love_n which_o induce_v he_o to_o this_o 5._o for_o the_o desire_n which_o he_o also_o have_v to_o suffer_v more_o for_o we_o and_o this_o be_v the_o thirst_n that_o he_o so_o much_o endure_v 6._o because_o in_o this_o god_n show_v the_o great_a love_n that_o he_o can_v declare_v unto_o we_o for_o see_v that_o man_n can_v not_o satisfy_v for_o sin_n if_o god_n himself_o do_v not_o become_v man_n he_o become_v man_n for_o man_n and_o die_v also_o for_o man_n rather_o than_o he_o will_v suffer_v that_o man_n who_o be_v his_o creature_n shall_v perish_v o_o what_o wonderful_a maruail_v 7._o because_o man_n ought_v to_o give_v himself_o and_o all_o that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o god_n as_o well_o because_o he_o make_v he_o of_o nothing_o as_o also_o because_o he_o renew_v he_o with_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n but_o man_n not_o be_v able_a to_o give_v himself_o if_o christ_n do_v not_o help_v he_o and_o when_o he_o shall_v give_v himself_o thousand_o and_o thousand_o of_o time_n yet_o he_o give_v little_a therefore_o that_o man_n may_v have_v what_o to_o give_v and_o repay_v to_o god_n for_o all_o the_o benefit_n gift_n and_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v receive_v and_o do_v daily_o receive_v christ_n give_v himself_o to_o man_n and_o first_o die_v upon_o the_o cross_n give_v himself_o to_o his_o father_n and_o rise_n from_o death_n he_o give_v himself_o to_o man_n that_o man_n may_v offer_v he_o to_o god_n with_o his_o merit_n or_o with_o his_o infinite_a love_n as_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o as_o a_o oblation_n for_o his_o benefit_n and_o so_o a_o man_n may_v offer_v unto_o god_n the_o father_n the_o infinite_a price_n of_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n yea_o and_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o 8._o because_o the_o benefit_n of_o creation_n of_o conservation_n and_o all_o otherlike_a will_v little_o avail_v we_o without_o this_o of_o our_o redemption_n and_o the_o other_o benefit_n of_o grace_n without_o this_o can_v not_o be_v obtain_v and_o therefore_o when_o a_o man_n do_v receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n or_o when_o he_o do_v do_v speak_v or_o think_v any_o good_a let_v he_o remember_v that_o christ_n have_v obtain_v &_o purchase_v this_o for_o he_o with_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n the_o thing_n that_o ought_v
