mortal_a sin_n as_o be_v manifest_a in_o lucifer_n and_o in_o the_o angel_n who_o consent_v to_o he_o it_o be_v manifest_a also_o how_o much_o god_n be_v offend_v by_o one_o only_a transgression_n which_o our_o first_o parent_n adam_n and_o eve_n commit_v now_o what_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v do_v with_o thou_o who_o have_v so_o often_o offend_v the_o most_o holy_a king_n of_o glory_n deep_o

also_o venial_a and_o the_o least_o meditation_n ii_o of_o death_n division_n 1._o to_o think_v on_o death_n beforehand_o and_o diligent_o to_o prepare_v one_o self_n for_o it_o be_v true_a wisdom_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v happy_a if_o always_o and_o every_o where_o expect_v the_o hour_n of_o death_n thou_o shall_v so_o watch_v as_o thou_o permit_v nothing_o to_o reside_v in_o thy_o conscience_n which_o may_v cause_v thou_o anxious_o to_o fear_v although_o thou_o be_v just_a now_o to_o die_v it_o shall_v be_v well_o with_o thou_o if_o consider_v how_o vile_a thy_o flesh_n shall_v be_v thou_o be_v not_o proud_a nor_o do_v not_o follow_v carnal_a delight_n for_o how_o miserable_a i_o pray_v thou_o be_v thy_o flesh_n in_o this_o life_n how_o frail_a how_o full_a of_o filthe_n which_o continual_o flow_v with_o a_o intolerable_a stench_n through_o all_o the_o passage_n although_o outward_o it_o appear_v fair_a and_o neat_a so_o that_o thy_o body_n at_o present_a may_v right_o be_v call_v a_o sack_n of_o dung_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o filth_n but_o short_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o abject_a corrupt_a and_o putrid_a carcase_n and_o worm_n meat_n 2._o think_v therefore_o that_o thou_o must_v short_o die_v yea_o perhaps_o to_o day_n and_o must_v go_v hence_o into_o another_o unknown_a region_n and_o must_v leave_v here_o riches_n glory_n honour_n pomp_n pleasure_n friend_n vanity_n and_o all_o other_o transitory_a and_o perishable_a thing_n which_o thou_o inordinate_o love_v or_o in_o which_o thou_o be_v now_o delight_v and_o indeed_o every_o day_n every_o hour_n and_o every_o moment_n thou_o approach_v near_o thy_o death_n and_o the_o last_o hour_n of_o thy_o life_n therefore_o compose_v thyself_o as_o if_o thou_o be_v now_o to_o die_v think_v thy_o countenance_n to_o wax_v pale_a thy_o mouth_n to_o be_v contract_v thy_o sight_n to_o be_v darken_v thy_o breath_n to_o fail_v and_o the_o sweat_n of_o death_n to_o be_v now_o present_a which_o testify_v nature_n to_o be_v overcome_v 3._o think_v i_o pray_v thou_o how_o great_a a_o tremble_a and_o horror_n will_v then_o seize_v thou_o and_o how_o much_o thou_o will_v grieve_v if_o thou_o shall_v be_v unprovided_a because_o thou_o have_v not_o vigorous_o mend_v thyself_o o_o how_o short_a will_v the_o time_n of_o thy_o life_n seem_v to_o thou_o for_o it_o will_v appear_v like_o a_o dream_n and_o a_o shadow_n when_o thou_o shall_v reflect_v that_o eternity_n be_v at_o hand_n which_o shall_v never_o end_v perhaps_o thou_o will_v desire_v one_o little_a hour_n to_o correct_v thyself_o but_o it_o be_v uncertain_a whether_o thou_o shall_v obtain_v it_o what_o will_v thy_o pride_n profit_v thou_o what_o will_v it_o profit_v thou_o if_o thou_o shall_v now_o have_v follow_v thy_o own_o will_n and_o the_o vicious_a passion_n of_o thy_o mind_n o_o how_o sad_a will_v thou_o be_v when_o thou_o shall_v have_v lose_v thy_o precious_a time_n or_o spend_v it_o unprofitable_o how_o will_v thou_o be_v vex_v that_o thou_o have_v live_v so_o wicked_o negligent_o &_o remiss_o that_o thou_o be_v so_o greedy_a to_o see_v hear_v and_o talk_v vain_a thing_n that_o thou_o have_v not_o more_o manful_o contemn_v the_o allurement_n of_o thy_o flesh_n and_o sense_n that_o thou_o have_v be_v so_o slack_a to_o the_o mortification_n of_o thyself_o and_o to_o follow_v true_a humility_n and_o charity_n and_o to_o gather_v together_o all_o spiritual_a good_a thing_n now_o therefore_o whilst_o thou_o have_v yet_o time_n amend_v thyself_o and_o study_v to_o live_v better_o and_o more_o holy_o 4._o think_v when_o thy_o soul_n gall_v with_o the_o sharp_a pricking_n of_o death_n shall_v cease_v to_o see_v the_o light_n of_o this_o world_n and_o shall_v begin_v with_o its_o inward_a eye_n to_o behold_v the_o state_n of_o the_o other_o life_n and_o those_o thing_n which_o before_o it_o will_v not_o believe_v cruel_a beast_n and_o horrible_a troop_n of_o devil_n will_v present_v themselves_o by_o divers_a mean_n endeavour_v to_o ensnare_v thy_o same_o soul_n and_o expect_v it_o to_o make_v a_o prey_n of_o it_o if_o it_o shall_v have_v depart_v here_o without_o true_a repentance_n it_o be_v therefore_o good_a and_o healthful_a to_o salvation_n now_o to_o provide_v for_o one_o self_n to_o cut_v off_o bad_a and_o unprofitable_a desire_n to_o leave_v vain_a and_o worldly_a thing_n and_o to_o convert_v one_o self_n whole_o to_o love_v and_o seek_v after_o celestial_a and_o eternal_a good_n 5._o consider_v how_o that_o thy_o soul_n be_v go_v out_o of_o thy_o body_n it_o shall_v immediate_o be_v present_v before_o the_o tribunal_n of_o a_o terrible_a judge_n who_o can_v judge_v thou_o otherwise_o than_o thy_o work_n deserve_v see_v that_o he_o be_v the_o supreme_a and_o immutable_a justice_n in_o this_o particular_a judgement_n thou_o must_v render_v a_o most_o exact_a account_n of_o thy_o whole_a life_n of_o all_o thy_o time_n spend_v unprofitable_o of_o all_o thy_o bad_a work_n of_o all_o the_o good_a thou_o have_v omit_v of_o all_o thy_o idle_a word_n and_o of_o all_o thy_o thought_n and_o inordinate_a affection_n the_o devil_n shall_v propose_v all_o thy_o sin_n and_o all_o thy_o negligence_n which_o have_v not_o be_v blot_v out_o by_o repentance_n final_o a_o sentence_n shall_v be_v pronounce_v by_o the_o just_a judge_n concern_v thy_o soul_n which_o shall_v never_o be_v recall_v for_o all_o eternity_n for_o where_o the_o tree_n shall_v fall_v whether_o towards_o the_o south_n or_o towards_o the_o north_n there_o it_o shall_v for_o ever_o remain_v and_o shall_v belong_v either_o to_o eternal_a salvation_n or_o damnation_n 6._o it_o be_v profitable_a for_o thou_o often_o to_o think_v on_o these_o thing_n that_o thou_o may_v with_o diligence_n correct_v thy_o life_n and_o make_v thy_o peace_n with_o god_n before_o that_o thou_o shall_v be_v call_v hence_o this_o thou_o will_v do_v if_o thou_o be'e_v wise_a for_o our_o lord_n god_n be_v very_o merciful_a and_o receive_v most_o courteous_o all_o those_o who_o timely_a return_n unto_o he_o by_o true_a repentance_n because_o he_o
