¶_o here_o begyn_v a_o lytell_a book_n that_o speak_v of_o purgatorye_n &_o what_o purgatorye_n be_v &_o in_o what_o place_n and_z of_o the_o pain_n that_o be_v therein_o and_o which_o soul_n do_v abide_v therein_o till_o they_o be_v pourge_v of_o sin_n and_o which_o abide_v not_o there_o and_o for_o what_o syne_v a_o soul_n go_v to_o hell_n &_o of_o the_o help_n that_o soul_n in_o purgatorye_n may_v have_v of_o their_o frendꝭ_n that_o be_v on_o fyve_o &_o what_o pardon_n aveyf_v to_o man_n soul_n ¶_o the_o prologue_n many_o man_n speak_v as_z they_o in_o the_o book_n rede_v of_o the_o pain_n of_o purgatorye_n but_o few_o it_o drede_v for_o many_o a_o man_n wot_v not_o what_o thing_n it_o be_v therefore_o they_o drede_v it_o the_z less_o ywy_n and_o for_o some_o man_n have_v thereof_o not_o know_v of_o the_o place_n of_o purgatorye_n not_o understand_v therefore_o i_o will_v tell_v what_o it_o be_v in_o likeness_n and_o in_o what_o place_n as_z the_o book_n be_v wytnes_n and_o which_o soul_n go_v thither_o and_z for_o what_o sin_v and_o what_o manner_n of_o pain_n been_v therein_o and_o also_o what_o thing_n be_v most_o in_o certain_a that_o may_v a_o man_n soul_n bring_v out_o of_o pain_n ¶_o first_o here_o it_o tell_v what_o be_v purgatorye_n purgatorye_n be_v nothing_o else_o to_o tell_v but_o a_o cleanse_v place_n soul_n in_o to_o dwell_v that_o have_v do_v

shall_v be_v or_z they_o then_v pass_v wherefore_o the_o pain_n that_o the_o soul_n there_o shall_v hent_v be_v more_o bitter_a than_o all_o the_o tourment_n that_o all_o martyr_n suffer_v both_z

for_o the_o pain_n there_o is_z more_o fierce_a and_o fell_a than_o herte_n may_v think_v or_o tongue_n may_v tell_v between_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n certain_o and_o between_o the_o pain_n of_o
