when_o life_n be_v at_o a_o end_n and_o true_o to_o lose_v all_o these_o and_o all_o these_o for_o ever_o be_v deserve_o to_o be_v reckon_v among_o our_o gain_n and_o advantage_n i_o have_v read_v of_o alexander_n the_o great_a that_o he_o do_v once_o ask_v a_o philosopher_n how_o long_o a_o man_n shall_v de●ire_v to_o live_v who_o answer_v until_o he_o think_v it_o better_a to_o die_v then_o to_o live_v be_v it_o not_o better_a to_o die_v and_o to_o be_v rid_v of_o all_o sin_n to_o die_v and_o be_v rid_v of_o all_o temptation_n to_o die_v and_o be_v rid_v of_o all_o misery_n then_o to_o

perfect_a good_a estate_n he_o now_o come_v to_o be_v of_o full_a age_n and_o to_o be_v a_o full_a possessor_n one_o say_v that_o this_o bernard_n bernard_n life_n this_o present_a life_n be_v not_o vita_fw-la sed_fw-la via_fw-la ad_fw-la vitam_fw-la it_o be_v not_o life_n but_o a_o motion_n a_o journey_n towards_o life_n he_o speak_v it_o of_o the_o natural_a life_n but_o we_o may_v raise_v it_o even_o to_o the_o spiritual_a life_n of_o a_o christian_a his_o spiritual_a life_n comparative_o consider_v be_v rather_o via_n then_o vita_fw-la a_o step_n towards_o life_n than_o life_n compare_v all_o which_o you_o be_v possess_v of_o as_o believe_v christian_n in_o this_o life_n with_o all_o that_o of_o which_o you_o shall_v be_v possess_v in_o that_o other_o life_n you_o may_v speak_v of_o they_o what_o paul_n speak_v of_o the_o two_o ministration_n even_o that_o which_o be_v make_v glorious_a have_v no_o glory_n in_o this_o respect_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o glory_n that_o excel_v 2_o
