for_o humility_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o obedience_n we_o must_v be_v first_o poor_a in_o spirit_n before_o we_o can_v be_v rich_a in_o good_a work_n first_o humble_a before_o we_o can_v obey_v

who_o be_v so_o dispose_v as_o to_o the_o resolution_n of_o the_o first_o i_o consider_v that_o this_o poverty_n of_o spirit_n here_o recommend_v by_o our_o saviour_n be_v not_o a_o state_n of_o life_n but_o a_o state_n of_o mind_n and_o we_o may_v take_v it_o either_o in_o opposition_n to_o covetousness_n or_o in_o opposition_n to_o pride_n and_o highmindedness_a if_o in_o opposition_n to_o

second_o to_o be_v so_o moderate_o and_o indifferent_o affect_v towards_o all_o these_o as_o to_o be_v well_o content_v without_o they_o and_o also_o ready_a to_o resign_v and_o part_v with_o they_o when_o either_o god_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o deprive_v we_o of_o they_o or_o when_o we_o can_v no_o long_o retain_v they_o with_o a_o good_a conscience_n this_o be_v to_o be_v poor_a in_o spirit_n consider_v in_o opposition_n to_o covetousness_n but_o it_o may_v also_o be_v consider_v as_o oppose_v to_o pride_n or_o highmindedness_a and_o then_o to_o be_v poor_a in_o spirit_n will_v denote_v

of_o our_o acquirement_n and_o of_o our_o performance_n and_o second_o as_o a_o consequent_a of_o this_o a_o contentedness_n whenever_o any_o or_o all_o of_o these_o be_v disesteem_v or_o disparage_v
