fear_v and_o not_o discuss_v as_o they_o which_o do_v pass_v man_n understanding_n &_o capacity_n desire_v not_o so_o much_o as_o to_o search_v or_o dispute_v about_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o godly_a who_o shall_v be_v more_o holy_a or_o great_a than_o other_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o these_o thing_n do_v many_o time_n cause_v unprofitable_a debate_n &_o contention_n

which_o peace_n consist_v in_o true_a modestty_n and_o lowliness_n not_o in_o arrogancy_n and_o pride_n some_o for_o the_o affection_n of_o love_n do_v cast_v more_o favour_n unto_o these_o then_o

imagine_v of_o the_o heavenly_a thing_n without_o doubt_v it_o can_v be_v utter_v in_o word_n in_o how_o great_a unlikelynesse_n in_o those_o thing_n do_v differ_v the_o one_o from_o the_o

wherefore_o beware_v son_n that_o thou_o occupy_v not_o thyself_o somewhat_o curious_o about_o those_o thing_n which_o pass_v the_o capacity_n of_o thy_o wit_n but_o rather_o apply_v thyself_o unto_o
