noble_a say_n of_o the_o apostle_n on_o which_o we_o shall_v oft_o meditate_v 1_o cor._n 15.31_o i_o die_v daily_o for_o if_o we_o so_o live_v as_o those_o who_o consider_v they_o may_v die_v every_o

if_o we_o continue_v as_o we_o be_v make_v we_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o virtue_n but_o if_o we_o purpose_v thing_n that_o be_v wicked_a we_o be_v arraign_v before_o god_n for_o wicked_a person_n if_o this_o accomplishment_n be_v such_o as_o that_o it_o must_v necessary_o be_v procure_v from_o without_o we_o it_o will_v be_v difficult_a but_o since_o it_o be_v within_o we_o let_v we_o keep_v

we_o let_v we_o be_v sincere_o sober_a and_o as_o it_o be_v write_v keep_v our_o heart_n with_o all_o diligence_n for_o we_o have_v shrewd_a and_o subtle_a enemy_n even_o wicked_a devil_n to_o which_o i_o add_v with_o the_o apostle_n we_o wrestle_v not_o against_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o against_o principality_n and_o power_n against_o the_o ruler_n of_o this_o world_n against_o spiritual_a wickedness_n in_o high_a place_n for_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a rout_n of_o they_o in_o the_o air_n against_o we_o nor_o be_v they_o far_o from_o we_o but_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n in_o

which_o lie_v upon_o we_o as_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v be_v their_o various_a subtlety_n against_o we_o and_o here_o be_v it_o know_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o by_o nature_n what_o they_o be_v by_o name_n for_o god_n make_v nothing_o evil_a but_o they_o be_v create_v fair_a and_o good_a but_o have_v fall_v from_o a_o heavenly_a prudence_n and_o now_o wheel_v about_o the_o earth_n they_o deceive_v the_o gentile_n with_o their_o fantasy_n and_o now_o that_o they_o envy_v we_o christian_n they_o leave_v no_o stone_n unturned_a to_o hinder_v we_o from_o enter_v into_o the_o

that_o say_v of_o the_o apostle_n and_o his_o follower_n for_o we_o be_v not_o ignorant_a of_o his_o device_n 2_o cor._n 2.11_o since_o therefore_o we_o be_v tempt_v by_o they_o we_o shall_v be_v

if_o they_o observe_v any_o christian_n especial_o monk_n labour_v hard_a to_o make_v a_o considerable_a progress_n in_o virtue_n they_o assault_v and_o tempt_v they_o by_o lay_v continual_a
