a_o worthy_a restimony_n of_o the_o same_o truth_n be_v that_o which_o holy_a scripture_n do_v set_v before_o we_o in_o the_o four_o book_n of_o king_n to_o wit_n that_o when_o joas_n reign_v in_o

of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o their_o good_a be_v that_o there_o live_v in_o jerusalem_n a_o holy-priest_n name_v joiada_n who_o in_o his_o life_n time_n hold_v with_o his_o doctrine_n and_o example_n both_o the_o king_n &_o people_n in_o the_o scruice_n of_o god_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o be_v dead_a &_o depart_v the_o king_n swerve_v from_o

merit_n which_o he_o get_v with_o they_o as_o if_o for_o he_o only_o he_o have_v suffer_v and_o so_o thou_o ought_v to_o consider_v this_o one_o thing_n which_o be_v so_o indeed_o that_o when_o

be_v never_o do_v harm_n to_o any_o but_o good_a to_o all_o so_o that_o the_o cause_n be_v well_o examine_v it_o be_v find_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o of_o his_o part_n but_o his_o bounty_n and_o mercy_n and_o those_o bowel_n of_o infinite_a charity_n with_o which_o he_o take_v compassion_n of_o the_o misery_n of_o man_n who_o be_v all_o condemn_v to_o eternal_a death_n and_o have_v no_o possibility_n to_o be_v deliver_v from_o this_o sentence_n and_o all_o that_o he_o suffer_v be_v only_o to_o do_v good_a unto_o man_n &_o to_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o their_o offence_n and_o from_o eternal_a pain_n which_o they_o deserve_v for_o they_o without_o any_o necessity_n profit_n or_o interest_n of_o his_o part_n 2._o and_o conformable_a to_o this_o you_o must_v consider_v very_o well_o as_o you_o meditate_v any_o thing_n that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v that_o he_o suffer_v it_o of_o his_o own_o free_a will_n &_o may_v have_v excuse_v it_o if_o he_o will_v and_o he_o will_v not_o but_o suffer_v so_o great_a pain_n and_o torment_n only_o for_o our_o good_a this_o be_v the_o cause_n which_o be_v of_o his_o part_n for_o which_o he_o suffer_v to_o wit_n his_o bounty_n his_o mercy_n his_o charity_n and_o love_n but_o of_o our_o part_n there_o be_v our_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o suffering_n and_o so_o when_o you_o meditate_v how_o they_o apprehend_v our_o saviour_n accuse_v he_o besett_n he_o spit_v upon_o he_o whip_v and_o scourge_v he_o with_o all_o the_o rest_n consider_v that_o thou_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o that_o and_o that_o they_o be_v thy_o sin_n that_o accuse_v he_o and_o abuse_v he_o and_o give_v testimony_n unto_o the_o process_n that_o he_o may_v be_v judge_v to_o death_n and_o put_v upon_o the_o cross_n §._o v._o of_o who_o the_o five_o circumstance_n be_v to_o consider_v of_o who_o he_o suffer_v that_o be_v who_o be_v they_o that_o inflict_v those_o pain_n upon_o he_o and_o in_o this_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o point_n follow_v 1._o first_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o own_o choose_a and_o elect_v people_n of_o who_o he_o in_o particular_a be_v lord_n and_o king_n to_o who_o he_o have_v be_v promise_v so_o many_o year_n since_o who_o he_o bring_v out_o of_o captivity_n of_o egypt_n with_o so_o great_a miracle_n and_o prodigious_a wonder_n to_o who_o himself_o give_v the_o law_n write_v with_o his_o finger_n who_o he_o sustain_v forty_o year_n with_o bread_n from_o heaven_n to_o who_o he_o give_v the_o land_n of_o promise_n who_o he_o honour_v so_o much_o as_o to_o take_v flesh_n of_o their_o lineage_n and_o come_v in_o person_n to_o preach_v unto_o they_o and_o teach_v they_o 2._o the_o seçond_n that_o he_o suffer_v of_o they_o to_o who_o he_o have_v do_v so_o great_a good_a and_o give_v so_o many_o benefit_n raise_v their_o dead_a deliver_v their_o possess_a during_o their_o disease_a and_o converse_v amongst_o they_o with_o such_o love_n and_o benevolence_n 3._o the_o three_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o cruel_a enemy_n who_o for_o the_o space_n of_o two_o year_n have_v seek_v his_o life_n and_o to_o dishonour_v he_o &_o will_v have_v drink_v his_o blood_n so_o great_a be_v their_o hatred_n and_o detestation_n towards_o he_o and_o to_o these_o he_o commit_v himself_o willing_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v use_v he_o at_o their_o pleasure_n 4._o the_o four_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o most_o vile_a &_o base_a vassal_n of_o no_o account_n at_o all_o without_o any_o shame_n measure_n or_o any_o other_o respect_n for_o doubtless_o they_o who_o do_v torment_v he_o be_v the_o public_a executioner_n who_o be_v wont_a to_o punish_v the_o malefactor_n if_o it_o be_v not_o that_o perhaps_o the_o chief_a priest_n do_v commit_v this_o to_o some_o base_a servant_n of_o their_o own_o that_o they_o may_v torment_v he_o with_o the_o more_o cruelty_n of_o he_o that_o give_v he_o the_o buffet_n say_v s._n john_n the_o evangelist_n that_o he_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o so_o we_o may_v think_v other_o be_v also_o who_o torment_v he_o but_o howsoever_o we_o see_v they_o be_v base_a fellow_n and_o slave_n very_o poor_a and_o abject_a for_o they_o part_v his_o poor_a garment_n in_o four_o part_n among_o they_o 5._o the_o five_o that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n suffer_v of_o all_o kind_n of_o people_n gentile_n and_o jew_n of_o great_a and_o small_a of_o the_o principal_a &_o of_o the_o common_a sort_n all_o it_o seem_v concur_v against_o he_o and_o those_o who_o six_o day_n before_o have_v do_v he_o so_o great_a honour_n receive_v he_o with_o palm_n and_o cry_v out_o that_o he_o be_v king_n of_o israël_n now_o they_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o all_o his_o miracle_n be_v devise_n &_o craft_n and_o that_o

that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o own_o disciple_n which_o be_v not_o the_o least_o of_o his_o pain_n to_o see_v that_o the_o disciple_n who_o he_o have_v teach_v so_o long_o and_o bring_v up_o under_o

his_o enemy_n and_o final_o he_o suffer_v even_o of_o his_o own_o mother_n for_o although_o the_o most_o bless_a virgin_n mary_n have_v no_o fault_n at_o all_o but_o very_o great_a merit_n in_o be_v
