to_o quiet_v thy_o conscience_n and_o then_o mark_v what_o sin_n those_o place_n speak_v against_o or_o condemn_v or_o what_o duty_n they_o commend_v and_o by_o that_o you_o may_v discover_v what_o

speak_v against_o covetousness_n he_o speak_v as_o david_n do_v to_o his_o army_n when_o they_o go_v out_o against_o absalon_n deal_v kind_o with_o the_o young_a man_n absolo●_n say_v david_n as_o

when_o thou_o always_o speak_v against_o such_o a_o sin_n when_o its_o contrary_a be_v speak_v against_o but_o not_o e_fw-la contra_fw-la as_o for_o example_n when_o one_o speak_v against_o

place_n that_o speak_v any_o thing_n concern_v that_o sin_n or_o the_o contrary_a grace_n or_o concern_v the_o act_n of_o either_o of_o they_o as_o if_o pride_n be_v the_o sin_n thou_o will_v

for_o though_o many_o time_n humane_a reason_n judge_v other_o to_o be_v more_o effectual_a yet_o he_o that_o will_v be_v wise_a than_o god_n shall_v find_v himself_o a_o fool_n 2._o improve_v

thyself_o with_o meek_a person_n for_o as_o he_o that_o keep_v company_n with_o angry_a person_n will_v learn_v their_o way_n so_o if_o thy_o sin_n bec_fw-la pride_n be_v acquaint_v with_o those_o that_o be_v humble_a and_o be_v often_o in_o their_o company_n three_o great_a advantage_n come_v by_o it_o 1._o it_o will_v hinder_v thou_o from_o many_o act_n of_o that_o sin_n for_o even_o as_o profane_a person_n do_v very_o much_o abstain_v from_o all_o sin_n when_o they_o be_v in_o the_o company_n of_o saint_n so_o will_v thou_o also_o be_v ashamed_a to_o commitact_n of_o pride_n in_o the_o company_n of_o one_o that_o be_v eminent_a for_o humility_n 2._o such_o a_o one_o will_v be_v more_o able_a to_o discern_v even_o the_o most_o minute_n and_o small_a act_n of_o pride_n in_o thou_o and_o if_o it_o be_v thy_o christian_a friend_n for_o for_o that_o end_n i_o will_v have_v thou_o choose_v he_o he_o will_v reprove_v thou_o not_o only_o for_o gross_a act_n of_o pride_n but_o for_o the_o appearance_n thereof_o as_o he_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o a_o critic_n in_o latin_a shall_v not_o only_o be_v admonish_v of_o he_o of_o incongruous_a latin_a but_o also_o of_o un-elegant_a 3._o the_o constant_a example_n of_o humility_n and_o so_o of_o other_o grace_n will_n as_o it_o be_v transform_v thou_o into_o that_o image_n the_o four_o remedy_n be_v to_o resist_v

cure_v heat_n in_o the_o face_n the_o way_n be_v not_o by_o application_n of_o outward_a medicine_n only_o but_o cure_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o the_o indisposition_n of_o the_o liver_n from_o whence_o the_o blood_n come_v to_o be_v vitiate_a so_o to_o cure_v anger_n the_o best_a way_n be_v by_o cure_v the_o cause_n and_o root_n from_o whence_o it_o spring_v pride_n for_o general_o if_o not_o

it_o up_o by_o the_o root_n and_o it_o be_v cure_v for_o ever_o so_o i_o will_v have_v you_o find_v out_o the_o root_n and_o cause_n of_o the_o sin_n you_o find_v yourself_o addict_v to_o if_o it_o
