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

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

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

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

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

to_o his_o cost_n and_o cost_v of_o his_o most_o bless_a mother_n §._o vi_o how_o the_o sixth_o circumstance_n be_v how_o he_o suffer_v in_o the_o which_o there_o be_v three_o point_n to_o be_v consider_v 1._o the_o first_o that_o he_o suffer_v with_o exceed_a great_a charity_n in_o so_o much_o that_o although_o the_o work_n he_o wrought_v be_v so_o excellent_a and_o great_a and_o so_o excessive_a the_o pain_n he_o suffer_v yet_o we_o must_v rather_o ponder_v the_o manner_n how_o he_o suffer_v they_o than_o what_o he_o suffer_v for_o how_o much_o soever_o it_o be_v he_o suffer_v far_o great_a be_v his_o charity_n by_o the_o which_o he_o be_v prepare_v to_o suffer_v much_o more_o if_o it_o have_v
only_o for_o the_o love_n he_o bear_v i_o do_v so_o much_o and_o suffer_v so_o much_o &_o desire_v that_o i_o shall_v love_v he_o for_o how_o can_v it_o be_v suffer_v that_o i_o love_v he_o not_o be_v

i_o so_o much_o and_o so_o it_o be_v reason_n to_o say_v with_o s._n john_n brethren_n let_v we_o love_v god_n much_o because_o he_o first_o love_v we_o and_o again_o he_o say_v this_o be_v charity_n

and_o this_o affect_v be_v exercise_v in_o prayer_n in_o this_o manner_n to_o consider_v very_o particular_o &_o leisurely_o the_o virtue_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n which_o be_v discover_v in_o the_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n or_o passion_n which_o be_v meditate_a and_o to_o affect_v the_o will_n with_o love_n of_o that_o virtue_n and_o make_v very_o firm_a purpose_n to_o procure_v it_o

be_v do_v to_o he_o without_o abhor_v or_o be_v angry_a with_o any_o nor_o desire_v to_o be_v revenge_v but_o rather_o wish_v well_o to_o all_o 5._o consider_v the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n who_o
