that_o be_v we_o must_v use_v all_o mean_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o the_o contagion_n and_o infection_n of_o these_o kind_n of_o discourse_n and_o then_o he_o give_v a_o reason_n out_o of_o the_o

and_o in_o natural_a uncleanness_n and_o corruption_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v therefore_o that_o evil_a word_n apply_v themselves_o to_o that_o evil_a leaven_n that_o be_v in_o we_o they_o bring_v in_o this_o monstrous_a effect_n of_o corruption_n then_o the_o which_o there_o can_v be_v a_o great_a deficiency_n for_o corruption_n be_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o creature_n and_o herein_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v 1_o what_o be_v manner_n and_o what_o be_v good_a manner_n 2_o what_o be_v conference_n and_o what_o be_v bad_a conference_n 3_o what_o be_v corruption_n and_o

assistance_n purpose_n 1_o part._n the_o purpose_n first_o we_o be_v to_o note_v the_o purpose_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o which_o saint_n austin_n against_o the_o donatist_n be_v fain_o to_o make_v a_o large_a exposition_n of_o for_o they_o think_v where_o the_o apostle_n say_v be_v not_o deceive_v be_v not_o seduce_v that_o he_o mean_v get_v you_o from_o your_o country_n get_v you_o from_o your_o city_n and_o run_v into_o some_o other_o country_n for_o among_o they_o you_o shall_v be_v deceive_v have_v no_o conversation_n with_o they_o therefore_o and_o by_o this_o mean_n they_o bring_v in_o that_o fantastical_a novel_a of_o the_o world_n that_o every_o church_n think_v itself_o the_o only_a church_n and_o every_o nation_n think_v itself_o better_a than_o another_o nation_n and_o every_o man_n think_v himself_o better_a than_o his_o fellow_n the_o most_o luciferous_a pride_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v for_o if_o that_o once_o be_v suffer_v there_o can_v be_v no_o charity_n there_o can_v be_v no_o kind_n of_o converse_v one_o with_o another_o nor_o there_o can_v be_v no_o form_n nor_o face_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o mere_a body_n of_o a_o schismatical_a company_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o lump_n of_o sand_n which_o the_o wind_n drive_v to_o &_o fro_o whereas_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v as_o a_o rock_n or_o as_o the_o solid_a earth_n which_o be_v not_o easy_o dissolve_v it_o must_v be_v a_o great_a storm_n a_o great_a earthquake_n that_o must_v break_v off_o a_o piece_n of_o a_o rock_n or_o that_o can_v scatter_v the_o earth_n that_o be_v fast_o knit_v and_o compact_v together_o aug._n aug._n saint_n austin_n therefore_o to_o take_v from_o they_o this_o weapon_n wherein_o they_o glory_v he_o tell_v they_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o his_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o they_o shall_v make_v a_o outward_a separation_n but_o a_o spiritual_a he_o do_v not_o cease_v say_v he_o to_o bid_v you_o separate_v in_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n for_o he_o bid_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o your_o mind_n be_v not_o wrought_v upon_o by_o these_o kind_n of_o witchcraft_n to_o believe_v and_o to_o give_v consent_n unto_o the_o thing_n that_o they_o speak_v for_o the_o apostle_n fear_v not_o your_o live_n together_o in_o one_o city_n or_o in_o one_o house_n but_o he_o fear_v your_o consent_n therefore_o he_o say_v he_o will_v have_v you_o separate_v in_o your_o spirit_n that_o be_v to_o take_v heed_n that_o you_o be_v not_o deceive_v that_o you_o do_v not_o misbeleeve_v for_o those_o that_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n and_o those_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v it_o they_o be_v two_o great_a faction_n in_o corinth_n and_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v they_o separate_v not_o in_o place_n but_o in_o manner_n evil_n word_n corrupt_v good_a manner_n and_o you_o shall_v labour_v to_o keep_v the_o manner_n of_o your_o holy_a faith_n which_o be_v the_o queen_n of_o manner_n keep_v that_o unspotted_a therefore_o the_o apostle_n meaning_n be_v that_o man_n shall_v separate_v themselves_o in_o manner_n one_o from_o another_o not_o in_o change_v and_o alter_v their_o house_n or_o their_o city_n but_o not_o to_o consent_v to_o a_o sinner_n to_o do_v as_o he_o do_v nor_o consent_n to_o a_o heretic_n to_o think_v as_o he_o think_v not_o to_o consent_v to_o any_o man_n that_o be_v mistake_v augustine_n augustine_n to_o be_v erroneous_a as_o he_o be_v so_o saint_n austin_n true_o expound_v the_o text._n how_o be_v it_o bernard_n bernard_n bernard_n write_v to_o certain_a lady_n and_o virgin_n that_o be_v nun_n say_v he_o it_o be_v true_a if_o you_o live_v in_o the_o open_a plain_a place_n of_o the_o world_n you_o ought_v not_o to_o leave_v your_o country_n for_o the_o contagion_n of_o the_o company_n of_o wicked_a man_n but_o because_o god_n have_v provide_v for_o you_o cell_n and_o nunnery_n and_o monastery_n to_o live_v alone_o therefore_o i_o wish_v you_o to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o for_o they_o be_v best_a secure_v that_o be_v within_o the_o wall_n seclude_v from_o the_o sinful_a schismatical_a company_n of_o the_o world_n upon_o the_o authority_n of_o these_o

either_o already_o prevalent_a or_o else_o likely_a to_o prevail_v to_o hold_v ourselves_o upon_o our_o tenant_n assure_v we_o out_o of_o the_o word_n &_o not_o to_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v carry_v out_o of_o the_o right_a way_n either_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n or_o to_o the_o left_a for_o the_o word_n be_v take_v here_o from_o the_o error_n of_o a_o man_n in_o his_o way_n go_v not_o out_o of_o the_o way_n be_v not_o deceive_v you_o know_v what_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v and_o therefore_o woe_n be_v to_o you_o if_o you_o follow_v your_o own_o way_n much_o more_o if_o you_o

of_o lose_a labour_n a_o great_a deal_n of_o trouble_n and_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o danger_n a_o man_n must_v either_o come_v back_o again_o which_o he_o can_v do_v without_o much_o sorrow_n and_o grief_n or_o else_o he_o must_v go_v forward_o and_o thrust_v himself_o into_o further_a danger_n as_o those_o that_o use_v to_o travel_v know_v a_o man_n be_v better_o creep_v in_o the_o right_a

the_o most_o considerable_a and_o

gross_a heresy_n for_o which_o he_o be_v say_v to_o deny_v the_o resurrection_n notwithstanding_o he_o deny_v it_o not_o but_o he_o have_v a_o conceit_n that_o the_o body_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n

they_o shall_v be_v less_o and_o less_o until_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o nothing_o thus_o in_o effect_n he_o deny_v it_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o of_o the_o apostle_n that_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v make_v our_o body_n nothing_o lesser_a but_o great_a and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o stature_n and_o proportion_n of_o those_o that_o

in_o this_o world_n what_o a_o goodly_a sight_n it_o be_v to_o see_v a_o tall_a proper_a man_n they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o giant_n of_o the_o earth_n the_o glory_n of_o the_o world_n they_o be_v the_o chief_a copy_n of_o god_n great_a and_o wondrous_a power_n and_o there_o be_v that_o state_n and_o majesty_n in_o their_o body_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o person_n of_o

give_v unto_o they_o that_o god_n have_v do_v by_o they_o mighty_a and_o marvellous_a work_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o the_o glory_n of_o manhood_n consist_v now_o in_o a_o strait_a and_o tall_a procerity_n in_o a_o goodly_a proportion_n of_o limb_n and_o bigness_n of_o body_n in_o which_o regard_n saul_n be_v commend_v that_o he_o be_v high_a than_o all_o the_o people_n by_o the_o head_n

that_o be_v of_o such_o a_o proportion_n i_o say_v then_o if_o it_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o humanity_n if_o it_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o manhood_n not_o to_o be_v dwarfish_a and_o small_a but_o to_o be_v of_o a_o goodly_a stature_n in_o this_o world_n we_o must_v imagine_v that_o god_n will_v bring_v we_o to_o all_o perfection_n in_o the_o other_o world_n he_o will_v bring_v all_o his_o saint_n to_o a_o goodly_a bigness_n to_o a_o comely_a tallnesse_n and_o proportion_n as_o a_o little_a corn_n of_o wheat_n bring_v a_o goodly_a tall_a and_o beautiful_a ear_n of_o corn_n out_o of_o a_o small_a grain_n that_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o ground_n therefore_o there_o be_v no_o diminution_n to_o be_v imagine_v as_o if_o the_o body_n shall_v grow_v less_o and_o less_o till_o it_o come_v to_o nothing_o but_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o great_a ampliation_n the_o lord_n extend_v and_o drive_v out_o the_o body_n draw_v it_o to_o the_o full_a lineament_n and_o to_o the_o perfect_a length_n so_o the_o apostle_n similitude_n infer_v against_o origen_n and_o those_o that_o maintain_v his_o opinion_n now_o these_o thing_n be_v very_o plain_a in_o the_o open_a experience_n of_o nature_n but_o because_o we_o see_v not_o the_o thing_n signify_v by_o they_o which_o we_o be_v to_o believe_v therefore_o they_o be_v hold_v to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n incredible_a to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v

can_v see_v that_o which_o be_v spiritual_a as_o we_o do_v this_o that_o be_v outward_a we_o shall_v as_o well_o be_v induce_v to_o subscribe_v and_o consent_n to_o it_o but_o in_o the_o outward_a
