desire_v that_o the_o title_n shall_v be_v alter_v thus_o wickedness_n be_v loath_a to_o be_v see_v when_o it_o do_v wicked_o but_o will_v fain_o palliate_v and_o cloak_v its_o naughtiness_n but_o pilate_n have_v not_o respect_n to_o their_o infamy_n and_o disgrace_n but_o to_o his_o own_o safety_n when_o he_o set_v up_o that_o title_n and_o therefore_o will_v not_o change_v it_o but_o if_o he_o do_v write_v that_o title_n contrary_a to_o their_o intention_n yet_o nevertheless_o our_o jesus_n christ_n of_o nazareth_n will_v have_v be_v king_n not_o only_o of_o the_o jew_n but_o of_o all_o other_o people_n beside_o for_o he_o have_v not_o his_o kingly_a name_n from_o pilate_n inscription_n but_o from_o the_o will_n and_o call_n of_o the_o father_n who_o anoint_v he_o thereunto_o but_o as_o those_o thing_n which_o christ_n have_v speak_v concern_v his_o kingdom_n do_v still_o continue_v so_o speak_v so_o what_o pilate_n have_v write_v remain_v still_o write_v and_o true_o pilate_n among_o so_o many_o error_n of_o fickleness_n and_o cowardice_n yet_o in_o this_o one_o thing_n he_o do_v well_o not_o to_o alter_v the_o title_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a title_n write_v on_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n then_o this_o it_o concern_v we_o to_o make_v good_a use_n of_o that_o title_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o write_v it_o on_o our_o wall_n unless_o we_o write_v it_o also_o in_o our_o heart_n wherefore_o if_o any_o misery_n or_o misfortune_n trouble_v thou_o remember_v that_o jesus_n be_v thy_o king_n and_o thy_o avenger_n and_o thou_o shall_v not_o want_v relief_n or_o comfort_n if_o thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n consider_v that_o jesus_n be_v he_o who_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n and_o thou_o will_v be_v encourage_v against_o thy_o sin_n etc._n etc._n it_o follow_v in_o the_o text._n then_o the_o soldier_n when_o they_o have_v crucify_v jesus_n 19.23_o john_n 19.23_o take_v his_o garment_n and_o make_v four_o part_n to_o every_o

cast_v lot_n and_o sit_v down_o they_o watch_v he_o there_o mat._n 27.36_o these_o thing_n therefore_o the_o soldier_n do_v when_o our_o most_o holy_a lord_n be_v suffer_v on_o the_o cross_n the_o soldier_n just_a as_o hangman_n use_v to_o do_v hale_v and_o pull_v his_o clothes_n off_o he_o and_o because_o they_o have_v power_n give_v they_o to_o put_v he_o to_o death_n when_o he_o be_v

dear_a friend_n who_o will_v careful_o have_v lay_v they_o up_o and_o keep_v they_o chary_o as_o a_o great_a treasure_n but_o when_o his_o body_n be_v brim_n full_a of_o reproach_n revile_n and_o abuse_n he_o be_v content_a that_o the_o hangman_n shall_v have_v his_o clothes_n for_o their_o pain_n all_o which_o be_v do_v 1._o that_o the_o scripture_n may_v be_v fulfil_v psa●…_n 22._o for_o

the_o scripture_n that_o by_o all_o alike_o we_o may_v be_v lead_v into_o the_o very_a truth_n itself_o and_o be_v keep_v from_o error_n by_o one_o as_o well_o as_o by_o another_o and_o true_o it_o be_v a_o great_a testimony_n to_o our_o faith_n that_o the_o prophecy_n of_o all_o the_o prophet_n be_v so_o clear_o and_o plain_o fulfil_v in_o our_o nazarite_n the_o jew_n be_v never_o able_a to_o

rash_a heretic_n rend_v and_o tear_v into_o divers_a and_o various_a sense_n for_o wicked_a man_n will_v take_v nothing_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n but_o what_o will_v serve_v their_o turn_n best_o and_o be_v content_a to_o hold_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n by_o part_n and_o parcel_n and_o so_o the_o devil_n will_v own_v and_o keep_v to_o scripture_n 4._o mat._n 4._o if_o he_o may_v be_v allow_v to_o pick_v and_o choose_v as_o he_o lift_v and_o whereas_o the_o lord_n have_v more_o than_o one_o garment_n it_o signify_v the_o many_o volume_n of_o the_o scripture_n with_o which_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v clad_v the_o seamless_a coat_n do_v fit_o set_v forth_o one_o entire_a inviolable_a catholic_n faith_n which_o those_o heretical_a soldier_n can_v not_o rend_v cut_v and_o abolish_v yet_o they_o will_v cast_v lot_n for_o it_o heretic_n do_v not_o deny_v faith_n and_o the_o gospel_n but_o they_o do_v so_o play_v with_o the_o scripture_n and_o darken_v it_o with_o such_o obscure_a word_n dead_a and_o dally_a gloss_n that_o one_o can_v hardly_o find_v and_o know_v christ_n by_o it_o or_o more_o proper_o thus_o the_o four_o part_n of_o christ_n clothes_n signify_v the_o church_n which_o be_v part_v into_o four_o part_n extend_v to_o the_o four_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o be_v and_o ever_o will_v be_v but_o one_o the_o seamless_a coat_n which_o be_v not_o divide_v signify_v the_o unity_n of_o all_o the_o part_n which_o be_v bind_v about_o with_o the_o girdle_n of_o charity_n if_o this_o unity_n be_v once_o dissolve_v the_o rent_n be_v still_o make_v wide_o and_o the_o schism_n wax_v great_a as_o augustine_n say_v but_o lot_n be_v cast_v for_o this_o coat_n for_o all_o man_n have_v not_o faith_n all_o run_v indeed_o but_o one_o receive_v the_o prize_n 1_o cor._n 9_o heretic_n endeavour_v to_o rend_v this_o unity_n and_o thereby_o cut_v themselves_o off_o from_o the_o church_n but_o yet_o the_o unity_n of_o faith_n still_o have_v and_o ever_o will_v be_v the_o same_o 2._o the_o garment_n of_o christ_n be_v his_o humanity_n which_o be_v distribute_v and_o preach_v over_o the_o four_o part_n of_o the_o world_n and_o be_v and_o have_v be_v so_o

bestow_v upon_o wicked_a man_n yea_o he_o do_v suffer_v they_o to_o snatch_v they_o off_o and_o scrape_v and_o rake_v they_o to_o themselves_o but_o spiritual_a thing_n he_o do_v bequeath_v and_o give_v to_o the_o godly_a and_o with_o they_o he_o do_v bestow_v himself_o also_o upon_o they_o 4._o the_o saint_n and_o good_a man_n be_v the_o garment_n of_o christ_n who_o cleave_v and_o keep_v close_o to_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v prophesy_v of_o they_o as_o the_o girdle_n cleave_v to_o the_o loin_n of_o a_o man_n so_o have_v i_o cause_v to_o cleave_v unto_o i_o the_o whole_a house_n of_o

for_o good_a man_n seem_v to_o lie_v open_a whole_o to_o the_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o evil_a man_n in_o this_o world_n but_o for_o all_o that_o christ_n coat_n be_v rend_v that_o be_v although_o
