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

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

consider_v second_o the_o purity_n of_o the_o life_n of_o thy_o lord_n which_o be_v so_o great_a that_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o frame_v such_o a_o lie_n of_o he_o as_o may_v carry_v any_o colour_n of_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

because_o it_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v beyond_o his_o power_n who_o have_v raise_v lazarus_n from_o death_n after_o he_o have_v be_v dead_a four_o day_n five_o because_o such_o kind_n of_o brag_v word_n seem_v rather_o worthy_a of_o laughter_n and_o contempt_n then_o of_o death_n learn_v thou_o first_o not_o to_o wrest_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n to_o a_o contrary_a sense_n second_o not_o

reason_n by_o which_o he_o admonish_v peter_n not_o to_o go_v about_o to_o hinder_v his_o passion_n thou_o may_v learn_v hereby_o the_o willingness_n of_o christ_n to_o suffer_v who_o use_v so_o

learn_v to_o leave_v all_o revenge_n unto_o god_n four_o consider_v the_o great_a multitude_n of_o angel_n which_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o help_v good_a man_n that_o thou_o may_v learn_v to_o

the_o greatness_n thereof_o that_o thou_o shall_v not_o light_o complain_v of_o the_o grievousnes_n of_o thy_o misery_n he_o acknowledge_v that_o his_o father_n give_v it_o he_o because_o thou_o

when_o he_o chastise_v six_o consider_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v fulfil_v by_o the_o passion_n of_o christ_n &_o be_v likewise_o fulfil_v by_o thy_o passion_n for_o through_o many_o tribulation_n we_o must_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n give_v thanks_n to_o christ_n who_o with_o so_o ready_a &_o so_o prepare_v a_o mind_n come_v to_o his_o passion_n for_o thy_o sake_n stir_v up_o

thou_o may_v find_v out_o the_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v just_a which_o thou_o do_v suffer_v and_o when_o he_o have_v touch_v his_o ear_n he_o heal_v it_o 22._o luc._n 22._o consider_v first_o with_o

thou_o may_v learn_v to_o be_v ready_a to_o mercy_n then_o to_o severity_n and_o to_o do_v good_a for_o evil_n though_o thy_o adversary_n deserve_v it_o not_o second_o the_o force_n of_o the_o touch_n of_o our_o saviour_n hand_n that_o thereby_o thou_o may_v know_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n for_o if_o the_o only_a touch_n of_o his_o hand_n do_v restore_v his_o enemy_n ear_n will_v not_o his_o whole_a body_n receive_v in_o the_o eucharist_n cure_v both_o the_o body_n &_o soul_n of_o his_o friend_n three_o that_o christ_n be_v ready_a to_o suffer_v do_v heal_v the_o ear_n for_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o chief_a fruit_n of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n to_o make_v our_o soul_n capable_a of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n &_o to_o cure_v they_o through_o faith_n and_o
