young_a man_n to_o behold_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v look_v my_o son_n be_v this_o man_n fit_a to_o learn_v which_o can_v hear_v nor_o see_v nor_o speak_v nor_o go_v therefore_o remember_v thou_o thy_o creator_n in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n before_o this_o dotage_n come_v this_o then_o be_v the_o level_a of_o our_o message_n to_o hasten_v they_o forward_o which_o travel_n towards_o heaven_n because_o there_o be_v a_o great_a space_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o much_o a_o do_v to_o aspire_v the_o top_n of_o mount_n zion_n but_o more_o a_o do_v to_o aspire_v the_o top_n of_o the_o mount_n of_o heaven_n therefore_o as_o abraham_n rise_v early_o to_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n in_o the_o morning_n 3_o so_o in_o the_o morning_n of_o thy_o life_n sacrifice_v thyself_o to_o god_n and_o let_v he_o which_o be_v alpha_n in_o every_o thing_n be_v alpha_n in_o thy_o conversion_n that_o be_v the_o beginning_n as_o well_o as_o the_o end_n because_o we_o be_v give_v to_o set_v the_o best_a last_n that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o long_a time_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o pleasure_n like_o the_o jew_n in_o the_o 1._o of_o agge_n &_o 2._o which_o say_v always_o the_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v when_o they_o shall_v build_v the_o temple_n therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n cry_v so_o often_o 2._o this_o be_v the_o acceptable_a time_n this_o be_v the_o day_n of_o salvation_n to_o day_n hear_v his_o voice_n like_o rebeccah_n which_o teach_v her_o son_n the_o near_a way_n to_o get_v the_o blessing_n 9_o when_o christ_n go_v about_o to_o cast_v out_o devil_n they_o say_v 29._o that_o he_o torment_v they_o before_o the_o time_n so_o whensoever_o thou_o go_v about_o to_o dismiss_v thy_o sin_n and_o pleasure_n though_o thou_o stay_v till_o thou_o be_v a_o old_a man_n yet_o they_o will_v say_v still_o that_o thou_o dismisse_v they_o before_o the_o time_n but_o than_o be_v the_o time_n when_o the_o devil_n say_v the_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o for_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o liar_n &_o know_v that_o with_o what_o liquor_n our_o vessel_n be_v season_v at_o first_o they_o will_v taste_v of_o the_o same_o ever_o after_o whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a therefore_o as_o god_n sue_v to_o have_v we_o begin_v at_o goodness_n so_o the_o devil_n woo_v we_o to_o begin_v at_o wickedness_n allege_v either_o that_o we_o be_v not_o resolve_v yet_o to_o leave_v our_o pleasure_n or_o else_o that_o god_n be_v exceed_o merciful_a to_o sinner_n or_o else_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v space_n enough_o to_o serve_v he_o hereafter_o so_o he_o stand_v as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o ladder_n foot_n and_o keep_v we_o off_o with_o these_o weapon_n that_o we_o can_v get_v upon_o the_o first_o staff_n but_o one_o thought_n or_o other_o pull_v we_o back_o when_o the_o foot_n be_v in_o the_o stirrup_n ready_a to_o ride_v away_o from_o all_o our_o sin_n at_o once_o thus_o we_o have_v long_o purpose_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o every_o man_n think_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v serve_v but_o we_o can_v accord_v of_o the_o time_n when_o to_o begin_v one_o say_v when_o i_o be_o rich_a a_o other_o say_v when_o i_o be_o free_a another_z say_v when_o i_o be_o settle_v a_o other_o say_v when_o i_o be_o old_a than_o my_o pleasure_n will_v leave_v i_o and_o i_o shall_v be_v fit_a to_o fast_v and_o pray_v and_o sequester_v myself_o but_o now_o i_o shall_v be_v mock_v if_o i_o be_v not_o like_o other_o thus_o like_o bad_a borrower_n when_o our_o day_n be_v pass_v already_o we_o crave_v a_o long_o and_o a_o long_o and_o yet_o a_o long_a till_o we_o be_v arrest_v with_o death_n so_o the_o prince_n of_o creature_n die_v before_o he_o consider_v why_o he_o live_v for_o as_o no_o discipline_n be_v use_v where_o christ_n discipline_n be_v neglect_v so_o no_o time_n be_v observe_v where_o god_n time_n be_v omit_v it_o be_v a_o old_a say_n repentance_n be_v never_o too_o late_o but_o it_o be_v a_o true_a say_n repentance_n be_v never_o too_o soon_o 24._o therefore_o we_o be_v command_v to_o run_v that_o we_o may_v obtain_v which_o be_v the_o swift_a pace_n of_o man_n 20._o the_o cherubin_n be_v portrait_v with_o wing_n before_o the_o place_n where_o the_o israelite_n pray_v to_o show_v how_o quick_o they_o go_v about_o the_o lord_n business_n the_o hound_n which_o run_v but_o for_o the_o hare_n gird_n forth_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o see_v the_o hare_n start_v the_o hawk_n which_o fly_v but_o for_o the_o partridge_n take_v her_o flight_n so_o soon_o as_o she_o spy_v the_o partridge_n spring_n so_o we_o shall_v follow_v the_o word_n so_o soon_o as_o it_o speak_v and_o come_v to_o our_o master_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o call_v for_o god_n require_v the_o first_o bear_v for_o his_o offering_n and_o the_o first_o fruit_n for_o his_o service_n require_v the_o first_o labour_n of_o his_o servant_n and_o as_o i_o may_v say_v the_o maidenhead_n of_o every_o man_n therefore_o so_o soon_o as_o man_n be_v create_v a_o law_n be_v give_v he_o 16_o to_o show_v that_o he_o shall_v live_v under_o obedience_n from_o the_o day_n that_o he_o be_v bear_v so_o soon_o as_o he_o be_v bear_v he_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n to_o show_v that_o when_o we_o can_v run_v to_o christ_n we_o shall_v creep_v unto_o he_o and_o serve_v he_o as_o we_o can_v in_o youth_n and_o age_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o begin_v to_o pray_v he_o say_v thy_o name_n be_v hallow_v thy_o kingdom_n come_v thy_o will_n be_v do_v before_o he_o ask_v his_o daily_a bread_n to_o show_v that_o we_o shall_v seek_v the_o will_n of_o god_n before_o the_o food_n which_o we_o live_v by_o much_o more_o before_o the_o sin_n and_o pleasure_n which_o we_o perish_v by_o so_o soon_o as_o the_o lord_n distribute_v the_o talent_n he_o enjoin_v his_o servant_n to_o use_v they_o who_o be_v so_o young_a which_o have_v not_o receive_v some_o talon_n or_o other_o therefore_o youth_n can_v excuse_v he_o because_o the_o talon_n require_v to_o be_v ask_v of_o every_o one_o which_o have_v it_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n have_v create_v the_o man_n and_o the_o woman_n he_o command_v they_o to_o increase_v and_o multiply_v shall_v we_o increase_v and_o multiply_v in_o the_o flesh_n before_o we_o

lesson_n to_o young_a and_o old_a for_o what_o can_v we_o owe_v god_n to_o morrow_n which_o we_o be_v not_o indebt_v to_o day_n therefore_o david_n pray_v teach_v i_o o_o lord_n to_o number_v my_o

and_o for_o our_o youth_n as_o straight_o as_o our_o age_n which_o make_v he_o cry_v remember_v not_o the_o sin_n of_o my_o youth_n which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v speak_v if_o god_n do_v not_o mark_v the_o sin_n of_o youth_n as_o well_o as_o age_n therefore_o he_o call_v child_n unto_o he_o as_o solomon_n do_v and_o say_v that_o he_o will_v teach_v they_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o shall_v child_n honour_v their_o father_n and_o not_o honour_n god_n it_o be_v a_o sweet_a comfort_n when_o the_o child_n go_v before_o christ_n to_o his_o temple_n and_o sing_v there_o

when_o we_o make_v he_o our_o nurse_n and_o draw_v our_o first_o milk_n from_o his_o breast_n there_o be_v not_o one_o confession_n for_o old_a man_n and_o another_o for_o young_a man_n the_o old_a

he_o in_o another_o country_n where_o he_o have_v no_o sepulchre_n provide_v herod_n hope_v when_o the_o people_n cry_v at_o his_o word_n it_o be_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v worship_v ever_o after_o as_o god_n but_o god_n resist_v his_o pride_n and_o before_o he_o descend_v from_o his_o throne_n the_o worm_n so_o deface_v his_o pomp_n that_o none_o which_o call_v he_o god_n will_v be_v like_a unto_o he_o so_o when_o woman_n take_v more_o pain_n to_o dress_v themselves_o than_o they_o do_v all_o the_o day_n after_o and_o pay_v dear_a to_o maintain_v one_o vice_n than_o they_o need_v to_o learn_v all_o virtue_n they_o think_v to_o please_v man_n by_o it_o but_o god_n resist_v their_o pride_n and_o all_o that_o see_v they_o though_o they_o cap_n and_o curtsy_n to_o they_o yet_o they_o judge_v worse_o of_o they_o and_o think_v that_o they_o will_v not_o wear_v these_o sign_n of_o lightness_n and_o pride_n unless_o they_o be_v light_a and_o proud_a indeed_o thus_o if_o their_o apparel_n condemn_v they_o before_o man_n how_o will_v it_o condemn_v they_o before_o god_n if_o sin_n do_v not_o blind_v they_o will_v they_o so_o deceive_v themselves_o to_o take_v the_o contrary_a way_n and_o think_v that_o shall_v honour_v they_o which_o disgrace_v other_o 22._o but_o as_o balaam_n be_v stop_v &_o know_v not_o who_o stop_v he_o so_o they_o be_v resist_v and_o know_v not_o who_o resist_v they_o though_o they_o do_v all_o to_o please_v yet_o they_o can_v please_v none_o they_o please_v not_o god_n for_o god_n resist_v they_o they_o please_v not_o the_o humble_a for_o the_o humble_a be_v contrary_a to_o they_o they_o please_v not_o the_o proud_a for_o the_o proud_a do_v envy_v they_o which_o strive_v to_o be_v as_o proud_a as_o they_o they_o please_v not_o themselves_o because_o they_o can_v be_v so_o proud_a and_o brave_a as_o they_o will_v be_v only_o they_o please_v the_o devil_n because_o their_o pride_n do_v entitle_v he_o to_o they_o thus_o much_o of_o god_n battle_n against_o the_o proud_a here_o peter_n leave_v the_o proud_a with_o this_o brand_n in_o their_o forehead_n this_o be_v the_o man_n who_o god_n resist_v then_o he_o turn_v to_o the_o lowly_a and_o comfort_v they_o but_o he_o give_v grace_n to_o the_o humble_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v you_o be_v like_o john_n the_o belove_a disciple_n which_o lean_v on_o christ_n bosom_n john_n 13._o 23._o though_o god_n resist_v the_o proud_a yet_o he_o will_v not_o frown_v upon_o you_o but_o when_o he_o resist_v they_o he_o will_v give_v grace_n unto_o you_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o proud_a be_v without_o grace_n for_o god_n give_v not_o grace_n unto_o the_o proud_a but_o to_o the_o humble_a according_a to_o that_o to_o esay_n 66._o 2._o to_o he_o will_v i_o look_v even_o to_o he_o that_o be_v poor_a &_o of_o a_o contrite_a heart_n and_o tremble_v at_o my_o word_n therefore_o learn_v of_o i_o say_v christ_n to_o be_v humble_a &_o meek_a 11._o as_o though_o the_o humble_a and_o meek_a be_v his_o scholar_n therefore_o god_n must_v needs_o love_v the_o humble_a because_o they_o be_v like_o his_o son_n they_o shall_v have_v his_o best_a gift_n of_o which_o he_o say_v 2._o cor._n 12._o 9_o my_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v he_o which_o have_v give_v you_o his_o grace_n can_v he_o deny_v you_o any_o thing_n as_o christ_n say_v he_o which_o have_v give_v we_o his_o son_n will_v he_o not_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n with_o he_o therefore_o grace_n may_v be_v call_v the_o gift_n of_o gift_n because_o all_o gift_n come_v with_o grace_n as_o the_o court_n go_v with_o the_o queen_n therefore_o fear_v not_o to_o be_v humble_a lest_o you_o be_v contemn_v for_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v make_v to_o humility_n and_o yet_o man_n fear_v to_o be_v humble_a lest_o they_o shall_v be_v contemn_v humility_n do_v not_o make_v john_n contemptible_a but_o when_o he_o refuse_v the_o name_n of_o a_o prophet_n christ_n say_v that_o he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o prophet_n mat._n 11._o 2._o humility_n do_v not_o make_v moses_n contemptible_a but_o as_o he_o be_v the_o mild_a man_n upon_o earth_n so_o he_o be_v the_o great_a upon_o the_o earth_n numb_a 12._o humility_n do_v not_o make_v david_n contemptible_a but_o when_o he_o humble_v himself_o he_o say_v unto_o micol_n i_o will_v be_v more_o humble_a yet_o and_o lowly_a in_o my_o own_o sight_n yet_o thou_o and_o thy_o maid_n shall_v honour_v i_o 2._o sam._n 6._o 22._o as_o christ_n cease_v not_o to_o be_v a_o king_n because_o he_o be_v like_o a_o servant_n nor_o to_o be_v a_o lion_n because_o he_o be_v like_o a_o lamb_n nor_o to_o be_v god_n because_o he_o be_v make_v man_n nor_o to_o be_v a_o judge_n because_o he_o be_v judge_v so_o man_n do_v not_o loose_v his_o honour_n by_o humility_n but_o he_o shall_v be_v honour_v for_o his_o humility_n as_o the_o son_n be_v honour_v when_o he_o be_v humble_v luk._n 15._o 8._o thus_o humility_n have_v find_v that_o which_o pride_n seek_v like_o little_a david_n which_o be_v least_o account_v of_o and_o yet_o get_v the_o victory_n yea_o when_o no_o man_n dare_v encounter_v with_o the_o giant_n 1._o

paul_n say_v love_n seek_v not_o her_o own_o but_o usury_n seek_v another_o that_n be_v not_o her_o own_o therefore_o usury_n be_v far_o from_o love_n 8._o but_o god_n be_v love_n say_v john_n

which_o respect_n god_n and_o he_o which_o love_v his_o neighbour_n will_v keep_v all_o the_o commandment_n which_o respect_v his_o neighbour_n therefore_o to_o maintain_v love_n god_n forbid_v all_o
