or_o what_o do_v you_o confess_v be_v in_o this_o sacrament_n answer_n when_o i_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n i_o believe_v that_o under_o bread_n and_o wine_n i_o receive_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o i_o know_v but_o also_o i_o must_v believe_v that_o my_o lord_n christ_n have_v give_v i_o they_o for_o a_o perfect_a sign_n and_o token_n

because_o i_o may_v strengthen_v my_o faith_n not_o because_o i_o doubt_v in_o my_o belief_n but_o because_o god_n have_v give_v i_o the_o sign_n with_o the_o word_n of_o his_o tender_a grace_n and_o

anger_n correction_n and_o visitation_n which_o god_n of_o his_o grace_n lay_v upon_o his_o child_n be_v after_o many_o sort_n god_n correct_v some_o of_o his_o child_n with_o sickness_n some_o with_o

there_o be_v no_o anger_n 54._o for_o his_o anger_n last_v but_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o eye_n after_o that_o he_o take_v up_o his_o again_o with_o everlasting_a grace_n and_o mercy_n as_o the_o prophet_n esaias_n in_o his_o 54._o chapter_n say_v and_o as_o david_n remember_v in_o his_o 89._o psalm_n 89._o if_o the_o child_n of_o grace_n break_v and_o forsake_v god_n commandment_n and_o keep_v not_o god_n law_n then_o will_v god_n with_o his_o rod_n severe_o visit_v they_o but_o he_o will_v not_o turn_v his_o grace_n from_o they_o the_o cause_n be_v the_o merciful_a covenant_n which_o god_n have_v by_o mean_n of_o his_o only_o beget_v son_n make_v and_o establish_v with_o his_o child_n four_o thus_o you_o shall_v earnest_o believe_v that_o this_o your_o suffering_n care_n

we_o in_o christ_n jesus_n therefore_o let_v no_o man_n drive_v off_o too_o long_o to_o better_v his_o life_n but_o let_v every_o man_n remember_v and_o think_v upon_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o upon_o his_o punishment_n in_o time_n prevent_v or_o come_v before_o they_o drive_v not_o the_o time_n off_o till_o your_o death_n bed_n for_o you_o be_v not_o sure_a how_o it_o will_v frame_v and_o

shall_v die_v sudden_o and_o die_v in_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o eye_n wherefore_o albeit_o we_o be_v all_o subject_n to_o death_n and_o that_o therefore_o we_o must_v all_o die_v yet_o do_v our_o lord_n god_n many_o time_n shorten_v many_o a_o man_n life_n before_o his_o time_n chief_o because_o such_o a_o man_n do_v not_o remember_v his_o sinful_a and_o unpenitent_a live_n that_o he_o may_v let_v he_o smart_v whereby_o he_o may_v win_v unto_o he_o a_o good_a purpose_n to_o amend_v and_o better_v his_o life_n i_o be_o afraid_a there_o be_v very_o few_o that_o god_n take_v away_o before_o their_o time_n because_o they_o be_v virtuous_a whereby_o he_o may_v save_v and_o deliver_v they_o from_o great_a mischance_n and_o from_o the_o plague_n at_o hand_n and_o therefore_o god_n can_v take_v but_o small_a pleasure_n of_o such_o people_n as_o then_o only_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o sue_v unto_o he_o in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o mishap_n and_o punishment_n and_o by_o and_o by_o as_o soon_o as_o god_n our_o lord_n have_v take_v his_o correction_n from_o they_o again_o they_o also_o by_o and_o by_o forget_v it_o and_o afterward_o become_v worse_o than_o ever_o they_o be_v before_o experience_v daily_o teach_v this_o therefore_o when_o so_o ever_o god_n help_v up_o such_o a_o man_n he_o help_v a_o great_a offender_n only_o up_o again_o upon_o his_o sound_a limb_n so_o that_o afterward_o he_o be_v worse_a than_o he_o be_v before_o therefore_o be_v this_o the_o cause_n that_o god_n many_o time_n have_v little_a pleasure_n lust_n or_o will_v to_o help_v such_o people_n turn_v their_o punishment_n from_o they_o or_o to_o take_v it_o from_o they_o it_o be_v better_a they_o lie_v there_o sick_a or_o else_o bury_v in_o their_o grave_n then_o that_o they_o
