and_o tongue_n and_o then_o this_o immortal_a honour_n die_v and_o be_v as_o mortal_a as_o yourselves_o but_o come_v we_o to_o the_o life_n of_o mankind_n the_o age_n of_o the_o world_n indeed_o of_o

error_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o our_o day_n be_v so_o short_a and_o so_o few_o yet_o they_o seem_v to_o we_o to_o be_v so_o many_o much_o like_a to_o he_o who_o stand_v in_o his_o

cause_n of_o this_o error_n in_o the_o computation_n of_o our_o life_n be_v chief_o two_o first_o for_o that_o we_o never_o think_v how_o the_o time_n go_v till_o we_o see_v it_o be_v go_v but_o as_o the_o sun_n though_o it_o move_v most_o swift_o yet_o because_o we_o see_v not_o how_o it_o move_v it_o seem_v to_o stand_v still_o so_o our_o day_n though_o they_o pass_v away_o speedy_o yet_o because_o we_o mark_v they_o not_o in_o the_o passage_n they_o seem_v to_o continue_v still_o therefore_o happy_a be_v that_o man_n which_o every_o night_n can_v say_v to_o himself_o a_o day_n be_v go_v a_o part_n be_v cut_v off_o so_o much_o less_o have_v i_o leave_v of_o a_o short_a and_o miserable_a life_n we_o be_v in_o the_o world_n as_o merchant_n in_o a_o ship_n who_o whether_o they_o stand_v or_o sit_v or_o lie_v or_o sleep_v yet_o be_v carry_v on_o by_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o ship_n so_o we_o whether_o we_o eat_v or_o drink_v or_o wake_v or_o sleep_v yet_o grow_v on_o in_o age_n and_o wax_v old_a before_o we_o be_v aware_a and_o when_o our_o time_n be_v once_o go_v than_o every_o man_n can_v say_v to_o himself_o oh_o how_o short_a be_v this_o life_n how_o soon_o be_v it_o go_v and_o than_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o he_o who_o have_v live_v out_o his_o full_a fourscore_o as_o to_o he_o who_o have_v live_v but_o fourteen_o only_o this_o be_v the_o odds_n as_o saint_n hierome_n say_v quod_fw-la senior_fw-la peccatis_fw-la onustior_fw-la decedat_fw-la that_o the_o elder_a man_n and_o the_o long_a liver_n have_v still_o more_o sin_n to_o answer_v to_o god_n the_o other_o cause_n of_o this_o error_n be_v for_o that_o man_n consider_v the_o time_n only_o in_o itself_o and_o not_o compare_v with_o eternity_n which_o the_o devil_n himself_o be_v not_o so_o foolish_a to_o do_v for_o the_o devil_n know_v say_v saint_n john_n that_o he_o have_v but_o a_o short_a time_n revel_v 12.12_o a_o strange_a point_n of_o wisdom_n in_o the_o devil_n and_o of_o folly_n in_o we_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n ago_o the_o devil_n think_v that_o he_o have_v but_o a_o short_a time_n and_o we_o think_v a_o lease_n of_o three_o life_n to_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o eternity_n now_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o because_o we_o think_v of_o no_o other_o life_n then_o that_o which_o be_v present_a whereas_o the_o devil_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o world_n to_o come_v the_o life_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o respect_n whereof_o a_o thousand_o year_n be_v as_o nothing_o yea_o what_o be_v ten_o thousand_o to_o eternity_n the_o world_n pass_v away_o say_v
