be_v obedient_a to_o the_o father_n that_o be_v he_o die_v willing_o at_o the_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o the_o father_n and_o if_o he_o have_v not_o be_v obedient_a his_o sacrifice_n have_v

like_o a_o drunken_a man_n and_o if_o thou_o be_v once_o give_v over_o to_o thy_o own_o self_n it_o be_v as_o sure_a a_o thing_n as_o be_v in_o the_o world_n that_o except_o the_o lord_n let_v thou_o

the_o power_n shall_v work_v a_o further_a induration_n in_o thou_o and_o make_v thou_o worse_o to_o go_v forward_o you_o see_v how_o careful_a he_o be_v of_o his_o disciple_n man_n will_v think_v that_o he_o be_v so_o hard_o strait_v &_o so_o near_o the_o death_n shall_v have_v forget_v his_o disciple_n for_o this_o be_v our_o fashion_n but_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o so_o and_o brethren_n this_o be_v a_o true_a note_n and_o token_n of_o a_o true_a shepherd_n he_o will_v forget_v himself_o and_o his_o life_n and_o he_o will_v remember_v his_o flock_n and_o when_o he_o be_v ady_v he_o

and_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o i_o note_v chief_o here_o when_o the_o lord_n become_v weak_a in_o himself_o through_o infirmity_n yea_o voluntary_a infirmity_n he_o need_v not_o to_o be_v

a_o wonder_n pilate_n be_v but_o a_o natural_a man_n who_o have_v none_o illumination_n but_o through_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n &_o you_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v knowledge_n that_o make_v

not_o have_v he_o to_o die_v as_o one_o worthy_a of_o death_n in_o himself_o but_o like_o a_o innocent_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o world_n now_o look_v to_o this_o wisdom_n that_o his_o

look_v when_o paul_n be_v accuse_v the_o roman_a governor_n lysias_n felix_n and_o festus_n have_v a_o conscience_n of_o the_o innocence_n of_o paul_n but_o the_o high_a priest_n persecute_v he_o to_o

according_a to_o this_o law_n they_o affirm_v he_o worthy_a of_o death_n so_o brethren_n what_o ever_o pilate_n can_v do_v or_o say_v to_o mitigate_v and_o to_o assuage_v their_o malice_n speak_v
