this_o lot_n his_o nephew_n and_o pupil_n to_o one_o beneath_o he_o and_o behold_v to_o he_o be_v abraham_n thus_o kind_a and_o condescend_v he_o stand_v not_o upon_o the_o punctilio_n of_o nice_a

of_o friendship_n or_o break_v asunder_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n and_o this_o shall_v we_o also_o do_v we_o shall_v be_v any_o thing_n rather_o than_o unkind_a or_o uncharitable_a we_o shall_v in_o all_o our_o conversation_n be_v courteous_a and_o affable_a kind_a and_o familiar_a to_o each_o other_o though_o providence_n and_o a_o successful_a industry_n have_v place_v any_o of_o we_o some_o

with_o a_o very_a calm_a and_o gentle_a voice_n of_o peace_n reach_v the_o ear_n of_o he_o that_o lie_v below_o we_o be_v indeed_o something_o above_o one_o another_o but_o it_o be_v a_o very_a

you_o see_v no_o sordid_a abject_a debasement_n even_o for_o the_o best_a of_o you_o to_o begin_v peace_n and_o reconcilement_n with_o your_o offend_n or_o your_o offend_a brother_n it_o will_v be_v

ever_o think_v the_o worse_a of_o abraham_n for_o it_o it_o be_v indeed_o a_o very_a common_a thing_n to_o see_v a_o poor_a man_n crouch_v and_o cringe_v to_o his_o better_a but_o it_o will_v be_v spectaculum_fw-la deo_fw-la dignum_fw-la to_o speak_v with_o seneca_n it_o will_v be_v a_o sight_n worth_a the_o view_n and_o approbation_n of_o god_n himself_o to_o see_v a_o great_a man_n condescend_v and_o entreat_v for_o peace_n with_o a_o poor_a man_n i_o say_v it_o will_v be_v a_o sight_n please_v to_o god_n and_o his_o holy_a angel_n inasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v the_o common_a practice_n of_o heaven_n so_o to_o do_v or_o else_o god_n never_o have_v be_v never_o will_v be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o miserable_a dust_n and_o ash_n how_o beautiful_a a_o thing_n than_o will_v it_o be_v to_o see_v a_o man_n not_o puff_v up_o with_o his_o riches_n and_o honour_n as_o with_o a_o poison_n or_o a_o disease_n but_o by_o the_o weight_n of_o his_o abundance_n press_v low_a and_o bow_v down_o to_o his_o poor_a desolate_a brother_n and_o i_o the_o rather_o commend_v this_o to_o you_o my_o brethren_n because_o it_o often_o happen_v that_o a_o great_a man_n may_v promote_v peace_n and_o friendliness_n when_o a_o poor_a man_n dare_v not_o many_o man_n be_v not_o stubborn_a but_o modest_a they_o be_v not_o froward_a and_o peevish_a but_o very_o bashful_a they_o be_v indeed_o willing_a but_o can_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o proffer_v peace_n or_o even_o to_o ask_v forgiveness_n they_o be_v not_o like_o the_o sturdy_a oak_n which_o will_v not_o bow_v even_o to_o a_o tempest_n but_o like_o the_o hair_n of_o our_o head_n which_o will_v bend_v and_o bow_v to_o any_o thing_n but_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v blow_v aside_o by_o every_o breath_n such_o be_v many_o man_n willing_a enough_o to_o comply_v with_o peace_n huge_o capable_a of_o be_v bow_v to_o any_o shape_n but_o the_o blast_n of_o a_o great_a man_n mouth_n some_o few_o bluster_a word_n quite_o discourage_v they_o they_o fly_v into_o corner_n and_o there_o pine_v away_o in_o secret_a and_o in_o scorn_n this_o be_v a_o consideration_n of_o high_a morality_n and_o worthy_a of_o your_o noble_a charity_n and_o from_o whence_o i_o can_v hearty_o wish_v that_o you_o who_o be_v great_a and_o good_a will_v learn_v to_o pity_v such_o man_n to_o call_v and_o invite_v to_o encourage_v and_o persuade_v your_o mean_a brethren_n to_o be_v friend_n if_o ever_o interest_n or_o a_o sad_a accident_n cast_v discontent_n among_o you_o but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n suppose_v it_o be_v stubbornness_n in_o a_o mean_a man_n as_o poverty_n be_v often_o froward_a and_o peevish_a and_o we_o must_v bear_v with_o it_o i_o say_v suppose_v it_o be_v stubbornness_n in_o a_o mean_a man_n yet_o it_o become_v man_n of_o part_n and_o education_n to_o teach_v clown_n their_o duty_n with_o calmness_n and_o gravity_n with_o good_a word_n and_o prudent_a behaviour_n to_o soften_v and_o polish_v such_o rude_a and_o ungarnisht_v mind_n it_o be_v such_o man_n disease_n and_o distemper_n to_o be_v quarrelsome_a and_o froward_a and_o it_o be_v the_o good_a man_n duty_n even_o to_o help_v and_o pity_v they_o in_o this_o condition_n for_o we_o be_v not_o to_o suffer_v a_o convulsive_a man_n to_o lie_v in_o the_o fire_n into_o which_o his_o angry_a sickness_n have_v cast_v he_o though_o in_o the_o take_v he_o up_o his_o disease_n and_o not_o he_o strike_v we_o on_o the_o face_n or_o smite_v we_o on_o the_o breast_n for_o we_o be_v to_o remember_v that_o in_o such_o a_o case_n he_o will_v
