strength_n be_v confirm_v in_o weakness_n 9_o we_o know_v but_o in_o part_n not_o as_o we_o be_v know_v 12._o we_o walk_v by_o faith_n not_o by_o sight_n 7._o we_o behold_v as_o in_o a_o glass_n

another_o that_o swear_v by_o malcham_n we_o must_v not_o be_v like_o the_o israelite_n which_o serve_v two_o master_n 12._o they_o halt_v betwixt_o two_o opynion_n serve_v sometime_o god_n sometime_o

hereupon_a christ_n speak_v to_o his_o spouse_n say_v thus_o 9_o thou_o have_v wound_v my_o heart_n with_o one_o of_o thy_o eye_n and_o with_o one_o chain_n of_o thy_o neck_n the_o church_n i_o grant_v have_v many_o eye_n but_o because_o as_o the_o eye_n of_o a_o maiden_n look_v unto_o the_o hand_n of_o her_o mistress_n 2._o so_o all_o these_o eye_n wait_v only_o on_o the_o lord_n look_v only_o one_o way_n and_o so_o in_o a_o sort_n make_v only_o one_o eye_n therefore_o he_o say_v with_o one_o of_o thy_o eye_n so_o likewise_o the_o church_n have_v many_o chain_n but_o because_o these_o chain_n be_v so_o link_v and_o intortele_v together_o that_o they_o all_o make_v in_o a_o manner_n but_o one_o golden_a chain_n of_o christian_a virtue_n which_o be_v the_o band_n of_o perfection_n and_o bind_v the_o church_n to_o christ_n as_o the_o neck_n join_v the_o body_n to_o the_o head_n therefore_o he_o say_v with_o one_o chain_n of_o the_o neck_n this_o one_o eye_n it_o be_v this_o one_o chain_n it_o be_v which_o make_v christ_n in_o love_n with_o his_o church_n which_o overcome_v he_o and_o wound_n his_o heart_n thou_o have_v wound_v my_o heart_n say_v he_o with_o one_o of_o thy_o eye_n and_o with_o one_o chain_n of_o thy_o neck_n the_o spouse_n of_o christ_n must_v have_v but_o one_o chain_n about_o her_o neck_n the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n must_v have_v but_o one_o coat_n upon_o his_o back_n 3._o he_o must_v not_o be_v a_o turncoat_n much_o less_o a_o change-coat_n see_v indeed_o that_o which_o cyprian_n speak_v of_o christ_n coat_n may_v be_v as_o true_o say_v of_o every_o christian_n coat_n that_o either_o it_o must_v be_v vnica_fw-la or_o else_o it_o can_v be_v tunica_n either_o it_o must_v be_v one_o or_o none_o for_o as_o rebeccae_n two_o twin_n do_v struggle_v and_o wrestle_v before_o they_o be_v bear_v for_o hatred_n and_o malice_n but_o elizabeth_n one_o child_n do_v spring_n and_o skip_v before_o he_o be_v bear_v for_o joy_n and_o gladness_n so_o he_o that_o busy_v himself_o about_o more_o thing_n than_o one_o shall_v never_o prove_v singular_a in_o any_o thing_n 3._o nay_o he_o shall_v find_v that_o strife_n and_o resistance_n in_o his_o head_n which_o rebecca_n do_v in_o her_o womb_n but_o he_o that_o labour_v and_o travail_n only_o about_o one_o thing_n shall_v bring_v it_o to_o good_a perfection_n and_o be_v as_o well_o deliver_v of_o it_o as_o elizabeth_n be_v of_o john_n baptist._n hence_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v exhort_v for_o our_o heart_n 32._o to_o have_v one_o heart_n and_o one_o soul_n for_o our_o tongue_n 10._o to_o speak_v one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o thing_n for_o our_o master_n 8._o to_o serve_v one_o master_n in_o heaven_n for_o our_o way_n 16_o to_o walk_v after_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o rule_n according_a to_o that_o most_o wise_a and_o worthy_a word_n word_n one_o heart_n one_o way_n which_o be_v also_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n who_o say_v i_o will_v give_v they_o one_o hart_n and_o one_o way_n that_o they_o may_v fear_v i_o for_o ever_o for_o the_o wealth_n of_o they_o and_o of_o their_o child_n after_o they_o 39_o wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o have_v many_o mind_n or_o trouble_v ourselves_o about_o many_o thing_n but_o with_o mary_n 41_o mind_n only_o one_o thing_n which_o be_v necessary_a let_v we_o not_o have_v many_o tongue_n or_o desire_v many_o thing_n but_o every_o one_o of_o we_o say_v with_o david_n 1_o one_o thing_n only_o have_v i_o desire_v of_o the_o lord_n let_v we_o not_o serve_v many_o master_n or_o be_v many_o master_n ourselves_o but_o as_o sophony_n speak_v 9_o with_o one_o shoulder_n serve_v the_o lord_n our_o god_n and_o only_o worship_v he_o let_v we_o not_o walk_v many_o way_n or_o kick_v against_o many_o prick_n 5._o or_o shoot_v at_o rover_n as_o i_o may_v say_v but_o with_o saint_n paul_n in_o this_o place_n aim_v only_o
