a_o spiritual_a consideration_n the_o soul_n have_v no_o part_n nor_o member_n of_o the_o body_n because_o they_o be_v spirit_n yet_o they_o be_v say_v to_o suffer_v in_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n because_o in_o those_o member_n they_o have_v most_o offend_v as_o this_o rich_a man_n in_o his_o dainty_a fare_n and_o delicate_a diet_n balthazar_z after_o his_o banquet_n and_o bowl_n of_o

cut_v off_o and_o his_o tongue_n to_o be_v cut_v out_o and_o give_v to_o the_o fowl_n they_o that_o have_v abuse_v their_o tongue_n in_o swear_v and_o curse_v by_o god_n appointment_n at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o death_n can_v speak_v whereby_o they_o may_v confess_v their_o sin_n and_o crave_v mercy_n who_o as_o this_o rich_a man_n shall_v be_v cruel_o torment_v in_o hell_n when_o their_o soul_n be_v part_v from_o their_o body_n this_o torment_n be_v express_v by_o saint_n john_n in_o his_o revelation_n 16_o 10._o they_o gnew_v their_o tongue_n for_o sorrow_v and_o blaspheme_v the_o

because_o the_o poor_a be_v bring_v forth_o for_o the_o rich_a that_o they_o see_v they_o may_v be_v provoke_v to_o liberality_n and_o that_o god_n may_v favour_v they_o the_o more_o poor_a many_o good_a instruction_n in_o behold_v the_o poor_a and_o especial_o that_o the_o poor_a man_n prayer_n ascend_v above_o the_o sky_n may_v prevail_v for_o they_o not_o after_o death_n for_o our_o prayer_n

that_o we_o may_v give_v god_n thanks_n that_o he_o have_v provide_v for_o we_o better_o that_o we_o may_v learn_v devotion_n from_o they_o that_o we_o may_v be_v put_v in_o mind_n to_o ask_v of_o god_n as_o they_o ask_v of_o we_o that_o we_o be_v good_a to_o the_o poor_a we_o may_v cut_v off_o all_o languish_a expense_n and_o fulfil_v god_n commandment_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o mean_a to_o practice_v all_o virtue_n and_o god_n line_n now_o follow_v the_o answer_n of_o abraham_n to_o this_o rich_a man_n but_o abraham_n say_v son_n remember_v that_o thou_o in_o thy_o life_n time_n

he_o so_o much_o the_o more_o for_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o unhappy_a thing_n in_o our_o great_a misery_n to_o remember_v that_o we_o have_v be_v happy_a remember_v that_o thou_o in_o thy_o life_n

thou_o have_v have_v all_o the_o care_n for_o thyself_o and_o not_o for_o thy_o neighbour_n remember_v or_o else_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o sting_n of_o conscience_n for_o we_o will_v fain_o forget_v god_n grant_n the_o wicked_a many_o good_a thing_n in_o this_o life_n for_o special_a cause_n to_o teach_v we_o not_o to_o murmur_v at_o their_o estate_n as_o god_n do_v lay_v many_o affliction_n
