qui male vixit He cannot die euill that hath liued wel and hardly hardly sayth he can he die wel that hath liued euil He saith hardlye for that no mā can limit the measure of gods mercies he may whē his merciful wil is cal at y e xi houre as Christ our sauiour in the parable of the woorkemen sent into the vineyard declareth He may cal at the last end of our life as he did the theefe on the crosse But that is not his ordinarye way let no mā presume vpon that but let euery man obey the voice of god whē he calleth him who by his holy word calleth al men at altimes when they reade or heare it When I saye that to liue wel is the verye best preparation to die wel let no man thincke that I herein go about to extoll the dignitie or merite of mans woorkes But that I vnderstande by lyuynge well all those qualities and vertues whiche pertayne to a true Christian manne amonges which those that be of the first table of the commaundementes of God are moste principall As namelye Christian beliefe the true knowledge of god assured faith in the mercies of God for the merites of Christe onelye Out of which as out of a most plentiful fountaine springeth true innocation of God true mortification of the old man and contempt of the world with all the woorkes of charity mercye Of which I wil cease to speake any further at this present both for that I am excluded by tyme now ouerpast and also for that the particular tractation of these is the principal matter of all our other sermons Of the which as ye haue often times hearde heretofore so shal you also hereafter heare often of me other my brethren by the grace and ayd of almighty God who graunt vnto euerye one of vs that when the vncertaine houre of death shal come we may be found vigilant and well prepared that departing from hence wyth a ioyfull conscience we may be partakers of that blessednes felicitye whiche in the Scriptures our sauiour promiseth to those seruauntes whom the Lorde at his commyng shall finde watchyng and ready Whiche blessednes God graunte vs all and that through the merites and death of the same our Sauiour Iesus Christ.
