this_o for_o the_o general_a give_v i_o now_o leave_v more_o particular_o to_o show_v how_o we_o shall_v love_v our_o neighbour_n by_o a_o few_o similitude_n draw_v from_o the_o natural_a body_n of_o

grief_n and_o misery_n yet_o many_o man_n in_o these_o day_n be_v like_o caesar_n and_o pompey_n of_o which_o one_o can_v not_o abide_v his_o superior_a the_o other_o can_v not_o endure_v his_o

12.26_o 1_o cor._n 12.26_o all_o the_o member_n will_v suffer_v with_o it_o as_o if_o the_o foot_n be_v hurt_v the_o eye_n will_v look_v to_o it_o the_o hand_n will_v reach_v for_o it_o the_o tongue_n will_v speak_v for_o it_o etc._n etc._n even_o so_o must_v we_o take_v compassion_n of_o one_o another_o misery_n like_o scipio_n africanus_n minor_n who_o as_o appian_n report_v do_v weep_v when_o he_o see_v carthage_n burn_v say_v that_o rome_n his_o mother_n city_n may_v one_o day_n burn_v so_o even_o so_o we_o either_o be_v in_o misery_n like_o our_o brethren_n or_o we_o have_v be_v in_o such_o misery_n or_o before_o we_o die_v we_o may_v be_v as_o wretched_a as_o our_o neighbour_n therefore_o let_v we_o have_v a_o sympathy_n and_o fellow-feeling_n of_o each_o other_o calamity_n again_o if_o one_o member_n rejoice_v all_o the_o other_o member_n rejoice_v with_o it_o so_o must_v we_o be_v glad_a at_o other_o good_a for_o this_o be_v to_o be_v angelical_a 15.10_o luke_n 15.10_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n rejoice_v at_o the_o conversion_n of_o a_o sinner_n upon_o earth_n what_o seneca_n say_v to_o his_o friend_n that_o every_o christian_n must_v from_o his_o heart_n speak_v unto_o his_o neighbour_n mihi_fw-la id_fw-la expedit_fw-la quod_fw-la tibi_fw-la aut_fw-la non_fw-la sum_fw-la amicus_fw-la nisi_fw-la quicquid_fw-la agitur_fw-la ad_fw-la te_fw-la pertinens_fw-la

friend_n second_o one_o member_n in_o the_o body_n do_v not_o appropriate_v its_o good_a unto_o itself_o but_o to_o the_o whole_a body_n as_o the_o eye_n see_v not_o for_o itself_o but_o for_o the_o

of_o another_o wherefore_o love_n must_v be_v to_o our_o action_n as_o our_o hand_n be_v to_o our_o body_n the_o hand_n it_o clothe_v the_o back_n it_o feed_v the_o belly_n and_o do_v all_o other_o
