ought_v to_o love_n and_o embrace_v one_o another_o it_o be_v a_o prodigious_a sight_n to_o see_v one_o stone_n in_o a_o building_n to_o justle_v with_o another_o we_o be_v as_o 2.5_o live_v stone_n in_o god_n spiritual_a building_n let_v we_o therefore_o by_o love_n lie_v close_o by_o one_o another_o let_v we_o not_o justle_v one_o another_o if_o a_o house_n be_v divide_v against_o itself_o how_o shall_v it_o stand_v we_o be_v god_n house_n &_o houshold-seruant_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o be_v divide_v against_o ourselves_o lest_o his_o house_n fall_v down_o upon_o our_o head_n division_n be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o destruction_n therefore_o as_o one_o stone_n in_o a_o build_n bear_v up_o another_o sometime_o a_o little_a one_o bear_v a_o great_a and_o sometime_o the_o great_a bear_v a_o lesser_a even_o so_o let_v we_o bear_v up_o and_o bear_v with_o one_o another_o let_v we_o not_o fly_v out_o of_o the_o wall_n let_v we_o not_o stomach_n &_o envy_v one_o another_o always_o remember_v that_o we_o be_v the_o stone_n of_o one_o building_n and_o all_o lay_v by_o one_o maistermason_n corn_n in_o one_o field_n plant_n in_o one_o orchard_n tree_n in_o one_o wood_n flower_n in_o one_o garden_n and_o vine_n in_o one_o vineyard_n do_v grow_v together_o without_o molest_v and_o hinder_v one_o another_o they_o stand_v together_o without_o discontentment_n they_o

therefore_o as_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n holy_a and_o belove_a put_v on_o the_o bowel_n of_o mercy_n kindness_n humility_n meekness_n long_o suffer_v put_v away_o wrath_n anger_n malice_n curse_v and_o hate_v not_o one_o another_o 11._o for_o he_o that_o hate_v his_o brother_n be_v in_o darkness_n but_o let_v we_o love_v one_o another_o for_o 4.7_o love_n come_v of_o god_n and_o every_o one_o that_o love_v be_v bear_v of_o god_n will_v thou_o know_v that_o thou_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o life_n then_o love_v thy_o brethren_n we_o know_v say_v 3.14_o john_n that_o we_o be_v translate_v

thy_o brother_n for_o 2.10_o he_o that_o love_v his_o brother_n abide_v in_o the_o light_n &_o there_o be_v none_o occasion_n of_o evil_n in_o he_o will_v thou_o be_v like_o the_o lord_n that_o do_v

love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o final_o will_v thou_o show_v thyself_o a_o true_a disciple_n of_o christ_n thy_o saviour_n then_o love_v thy_o fellow_n for_o 13.35_o by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v say_v christ_n that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o have_v love_v one_o unto_o another_o let_v we_o therefore_o affect_v one_o another_o with_o true_a love_n we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o one_o father_n the_o child_n of_o one_o mother_n the_o temple_n of_o one_o god_n the_o field_n of_o one_o husbandman_n the_o house_n of_o one_o inhabitant_n the_o branch_n of_o one_o vine_n the_o

we_o must_v be_v content_a with_o his_o husband_n we_o must_v strive_v to_o be_v fruitful_a in_o good_a thing_n they_o be_v to_o be_v dispraise_v that_o be_v barren_a first_o forsomuch_o as_o we_o

of_o the_o 24.31_o sluggard_n that_o be_v overgrow_v with_o thorn_n &_o nettle_n if_o a_o field_n be_v break_v up_o with_o the_o plough_n and_o if_o good_a seed_n be_v not_o sow_v therein_o it_o

our_o life_n now_o that_o we_o have_v be_v break_v up_o with_o the_o plough_n of_o god_n word_n we_o shall_v more_o abound_v with_o the_o stink_a weed_n of_o wickedness_n then_o if_o we_o have_v never_o feel_v that_o plough_n let_v we_o therefore_o look_v to_o ourselves_o and_o labour_n to_o be_v fruitful_a in_o good_a thing_n 23.12_o apply_v thy_o heart_n to_o instruction_n and_o thy_o ear_n to_o the_o word_n of_o knowledge_n 21.21_o he_o that_o follow_v after_o righteousness_n and_o mercy_n shall_v find_v life_n righteousness_n and_o glory_n now_o that_o we_o may_v be_v fruitful_a we_o
