exercise_v in_o ponder_v any_o of_o the_o mysterye_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n the_o great_a benefit_n he_o have_v do_v unto_o we_o for_o by_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n and_o for_o our_o own_o proper_a sin_n we_o be_v by_o just_a sentence_n condemn_v to_o eternal_a pain_n of_o hell_n and_o banish_v for_o ever_o from_o glory_n and_o give_v up_o into_o the_o power_n of_o the_o

remedy_n suppose_v the_o divine_a ordination_n of_o god_n but_o his_o incarnation_n death_n and_o passion_n wherefore_o by_o every_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n and_o by_o every_o action_n of_o he_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o sin_n from_o the_o devil_n from_o death_n eternal_a from_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n and_o from_o the_o subjection_n and_o tyranny_n of_o all_o our_o enemy_n and_o by_o the_o same_o we_o be_v restore_v to_o the_o grace_n and_o friendship_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v adopt_v child_n of_o he_o and_o all_o the_o grace_n and_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o and_o the_o title_n to_o get_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o to_o be_v member_n of_o christ_n and_o participate_v of_o all_o his_o merit_n all_o these_o benefit_n must_v be_v ponder_v very_o particular_o in_o every_o mystery_n of_o christ_n for_o every_o one_o by_o itself_o and_o every_o motion_n of_o he_o be_v sufficient_a to_o gain_v we_o all_o this_o profit_n but_o that_o his_o majesty_n will_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o abundance_n of_o his_o charity_n that_o our_o redemption_n may_v be_v more_o copious_a offer_v all_o his_o life_n death_n and_o passion_n as_o a_o total_a price_n of_o our_o redemption_n 3._o and_o here_o must_v be_v ponder_v beside_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o benefit_n these_o four_o point_n the_o first_o who_o be_v he_o that_o do_v it_o to_o wit_n the_o son_n of_o god_n himself_o who_o trouble_v no_o creature_n to_o redeem_v and_o deliver_v we_o but_o himself_o in_o person_n will_v do_v it_o the_o second_o that_o he_o bestow_v these_o benefit_n of_o we_o great_o to_o his_o own_o cost_n suffer_v so_o much_o for_o us._n the_o three_o the_o love_n wherewith_o he_o do_v it_o and_o the_o desire_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o the_o mind_n prepare_v to_o do_v much_o more_o if_o it_o have_v be_v necessary_a for_o us._n the_o four_o to_o consider_v every_o one_o of_o these_o benefit_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v do_v only_o to_o thyself_o and_o this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n which_o be_v to_o acknowledge_v and_o esteem_v the_o benefit_n and_o be_v mindful_a of_o it_o 4._o the_o second_o point_n must_v be_v to_o give_v thank_n to_o god_n very_o hearty_o for_o all_o he_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o and_o for_o every_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n acknowledge_v that_o if_o all_o our_o member_n shall_v be_v convert_v into_o tongue_n and_o heart_n &_o shall_v praise_v he_o we_o shall_v not_o answer_v to_o the_o least_o drop_n of_o blood_n which_o he_o shed_v for_o we_o nor_o to_o the_o least_o of_o his_o labour_n which_o he_o suffer_v nor_o if_o we_o shall_v praise_v he_o as_o much_o as_o all_o the_o angel_n and_o man_n and_o all_o creature_n yet_o we_o shall_v come_v very_o short_a and_o therefore_o we_o must_v desire_v very_o hearty_o that_o all_o both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n will_v help_v we_o to_o praise_v he_o &_o we_o ought_v to_o invite_v they_o to_o it_o especial_o our_o angell-keeper_n and_o the_o saint_n to_o who_o we_o be_v most_o devote_a 5._o the_o three_o point_n be_v to_o answer_v with_o work_n to_o the_o benefit_n receive_v how_o great_a in_o gratitude_n will_v it_o be_v if_o to_o any_o person_n of_o who_o we_o have_v receive_v great_a benefit_n we_o may_v do_v some_o little_a service_n &_o will_v not_o do_v it_o and_o so_o thou_o must_v make_v firm_a purpose_n to_o do_v whatsoever_o thou_o do_v understand_v to_o be_v please_v to_o christ_n our_o lord_n and_o thou_o must_v be_v very_o sorry_a that_o thou_o have_v not_o do_v so_o already_o and_o these_o purpose_n must_v be_v very_o free_a from_o any_o interest_n for_o although_o he_o be_v to_o give_v thou_o no_o reward_n at_o all_o it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o it_o be_v so_o due_a unto_o he_o and_o that_o he_o have_v so_o much_o descrue_v it_o to_o show_v thyself_o grateful_a 6._o beside_o these_o three_o point_n remember_v to_o be_v thankful_a to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o all_o the_o bless_a trinity_n for_o all_o the_o benefit_n bestow_v upon_o the_o humanity_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v reason_n that_o the_o child_n be_v grateful_a for_o the_o benefit_n do_v unto_o their_o father_n as_o if_o they_o be_v do_v to_o themselves_o and_o the_o member_n must_v be_v thankful_a for_o the_o benefit_n do_v to_o the_o head_n especial_o for_o all_o the_o benefit_n and_o grace_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n do_v turn_v to_o our_o profit_n for_o he_o make_v we_o participate_v of_o they_o all_o §._o four_o of_o the_o affect_n of_o admiration_n admiration_n be_v cause_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v rare_a extraordinary_a and_o marvellous_a for_o see_v it_o and_o not_o know_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o a_o man_n remain_v astonish_v &_o desirous_a to_o know_v it_o the_o which_o in_o nothing_o in_o the_o world_n have_v place_n more_o then_o in_o the_o divine_a mystery_n for_o all_o of_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o very_o marvellous_a therefore_o the_o prophet_n esay_n say_v that_o christ_n shall_v be_v call_v admirable_a because_o all_o thing_n in_o he_o be_v so_o very_o great_a and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o cause_v admiration_n in_o we_o it_o be_v because_o though_o we_o belecue_v they_o by_o faith_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o consider_v they_o with_o attention_n and_o hereof_o it_o proceed_v that_o when_o with_o most_o attention_n we_o consider_v they_o they_o seem_v new_a unto_o we_o as_o if_o we_o have_v not_o know_v they_o before_o and_o then_o they_o cause_v admiration_n in_o we_o &_o so_o much_o the_o more_o by_o how_o much_o we_o do_v consider_v they_o with_o attention_n 2._o and_o here_o upon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v also_o that_o they_o who_o be_v very_o contemplative_a and_o who_o our_o saniour_n do_v illuminate_v with_o particular_a light_n in_o their_o soul_n to_o see_v the_o divine_a mystery_n of_o pure_a admiration_n they_o remain_v absorb_v and_o so_o elevate_v that_o many_o time_n they_o remain_v without_o their_o sense_n &_o so_o this_o affect_n be_v proper_a to_o prayer_n for_o every_o thing_n consider_v in_o it_o be_v worthy_a to_o cause_v admiration_n as_o to_o consider_v the_o greatness_n of_o god_n his_o majesty_n his_o power_n his_o wisdom_n his_o justice_n his_o mercy_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o attribute_n and_o perfection_n 3._o but_o particular_o in_o the_o holy_a mystery_n of_o christ_n our_o saviour_n that_o which_o must_v cause_v admiration_n be_v to_o consider_v those_o inestimable_a riches_n of_o charity_n with_o which_o god_n love_v man_n who_o have_v one_o only_o son_n which_o be_v all_o his_o delight_n and_o not_o have_v nor_o be_v possible_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v any_o other_o give_v he_o for_o our_o remedy_n &_o consent_v that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v so_o many_o labour_n and_o torment_n and_o give_v his_o life_n for_o they_o and_o that_o the_o son_n himself_o love_v they_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v

follow_v to_o wit_n to_o love_v what_o he_o love_v and_o hate_v what_o he_o hate_v and_o receive_v content_a in_o all_o thing_n with_o he_o by_o these_o point_n the_o love_n of_o god_n must_v be_v exercise_v the_o first_o to_o receive_v great_a content_n and_o pleasure_n that_o god_n be_v who_o he_o be_v and_o have_v all_o the_o good_a he_o have_v that_o he_o be_v so_o great_a so_o infinite_a so_o powerful_a so_o wise_a and_o the_o like_a of_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o perfection_n and_o greatness_n 2._o the_o second_o suppose_v that_o we_o can_v desire_v god_n more_o good_a than_o he_o have_v because_o in_o he_o be_v all_o good_a thing_n and_o his_o greatness_n can_v be_v no_o more_o than_o it_o be_v nor_o his_o glory_n more_o than_o he_o have_v in_o himself_o but_o it_o may_v be_v great_a exterior_o in_o his_o creature_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o we_o desire_v he_o shall_v have_v 3._o the_o three_o suppose_v also_o that_o we_o can_v do_v any_o work_n that_o may_v be_v profitable_a unto_o he_o for_o he_o have_v no_o need_n of_o we_o neither_o of_o all_o our_o good_n can_v any_o profit_n come_v unto_o he_o but_o we_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o show_v that_o we_o

we_o must_v make_v many_o act_n and_o firm_a purpose_n to_o fulfil_v perfect_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o break_v any_o of_o they_o for_o all_o the_o world_n and_o this_o same_o love_n of_o god_n we_o must_v excercise_n in_o a_o certain_a manner_n with_o the_o sacred_a humanity_n of_o christ_n which_o we_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o love_n more_o they_o all_o creature_n

from_o the_o bottom_n of_o our_o hart_n thy_o will_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n this_o be_v the_o most_o perfect_a act_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n &_o in_o which_o the_o soul_n ought_v to_o excercise_n itself_o much_o and_o in_o this_o must_v spend_v the_o great_a part_n of_o it_o excercise_n 5._o and_o this_o affect_v of_o love_n of_o god_n in_o the_o meditation_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v exercise_v consider_v the_o great_a and_o unspeakable_a love_n that_o he_o show_v we_o in_o these_o mystery_n do_v and_o suffer_v so_o much_o for_o we_o and_o with_o so_o great_a affection_n and_o love_n that_o it_o can_v be_v express_v for_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o force_v so_o much_o to_o love_v another_o as_o to_o see_v himself_o love_v of_o he_o especial_o if_o the_o person_n which_o love_v be_v of_o great_a dignity_n and_o nobility_n and_o that_o he_o have_v no_o need_n of_o i_o nor_o hope_v for_o any_o profit_n of_o i_o and_o i_o who_o be_o love_v be_o of_o vile_a and_o low_a condition_n and_o very_o unworthy_a to_o be_v at_o all_o as_o i_o be_o 6._o and_o so_o the_o christian_a must_v make_v with_o himself_o this_o account_n
