the_o reason_n that_o the_o good_a work_n of_o monk_n caeteris_fw-la paribus_fw-la be_v more_o acceptable_a to_o god_n than_o those_o of_o other_o people_n because_o they_o spring_v from_o that_o

vouchsafe_v to_o do_v for_o if_o there_o go_v no_o more_o to_o salvation_n than_o the_o sprinkle_v of_o a_o little_a water_n what_o a_o gap_n be_v there_o open_v to_o all_o sort_n of_o carnal_a

that_o he_o give_v he_o thanks_o and_o confess_v himself_o guilty_a but_o one_o of_o the_o company_n wonder_v at_o such_o a_o acknowledgement_n i_o have_v do_v worse_o than_o all_o this_o say_v st._n francis_n if_o god_n grace_n have_v not_o restrain_v i_o how_o come_v st_n francis_n now_o then_o to_o be_v vindictive_a th._n so_o it_o be_v for_o though_o the_o saint_n will_v bear_v any_o thing_n upon_o earth_n they_o will_v take_v no_o affront_v in_o heaven_n be_v ever_o any_o man_n gentle_a than_o cornelius_n mild_a than_o anthony_n or_o more_o patient_a than_o john_n the_o baptist_n when_o

part_n i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o they_o rather_o cure_v our_o disease_n than_o cause_v they_o but_o however_o assure_v yourself_o that_o what_o you_o say_v to_o i_o be_v speak_v to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v neither_o profane_a nor_o a_o blab_n th._n go_v to_o then_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o confidence_n what_o i_o have_v hear_v as_o to_o this_o matter_n be_v it_o speak_v without_o
