merit_n which_o he_o get_v with_o they_o as_o if_o for_o he_o only_o he_o have_v suffer_v and_o so_o thou_o ought_v to_o consider_v this_o one_o thing_n which_o be_v so_o indeed_o that_o when_o christ_n suffer_v he_o have_v thou_o as_o present_v in_o his_o memory_n as_o if_o thou_o have_v be_v there_o real_o present_a &_o he_o have_v also_o present_a before_o his_o eye_n all_o thy_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o set_v his_o eye_n upon_o thou_o and_o say_v with_o great_a love_n and_o tenderness_n for_o thou_o o_o man_n and_o for_o thy_o sin_n i_o suffer_v this_o and_o i_o suffer_v it_o willing_o for_o thy_o salvation_n and_o remedy_n of_o thy_o soul_n with_o great_a desire_n that_o thou_o profit_v thyself_o by_o it_o and_o know_v certain_o that_o if_o for_o thou_o only_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o suffer_v all_o this_o and_o much_o more_o i_o love_v thou_o so_o dear_o that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o suffer_v for_o thou_o alone_o and_o this_o be_v so_o it_o be_v most_o just_a that_o every_o one_o take_v to_o himself_o that_o which_o christ_n suffer_v and_o make_v account_n of_o it_o so_o do_v the_o glorious_a apostle_n s._n paul_n when_o he_o say_v i_o live_v in_o the_o say_v of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o love_v i_o and_o die_v for_o i_o §._o four_o for_o why_o 1._o the_o four_o circumstance_n be_v to_o consider_v for_o why_o that_o be_v for_o what_o cause_n our_o savour_n suffer_v all_o this_o the_o precedent_n who_o give_v the_o sentence_n after_o he_o have_v very_o well_o examine_v his_o cause_n do_v affirm_v thrice_o that_o he_o find_v no_o cause_n at_o all_o either_o to_o condemn_v he_o or_o give_v he_o any_o punishment_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v so_o that_o he_o have_v not_o any_o fault_n for_o he_o be_v most_o innocent_a not_o know_v what_o sin_n 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 and_o mercy_n and_o those_o bowel_n of_o infinite_a charity_n with_o which_o he_o take_v compassion_n of_o the_o misery_n of_o man_n who_o be_v all_o condemn_v to_o eternal_a death_n and_o have_v no_o possibility_n to_o be_v deliver_v from_o this_o sentence_n and_o all_o that_o he_o suffer_v be_v only_o to_o do_v good_a unto_o man_n &_o to_o deliver_v they_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o their_o offence_n and_o from_o eternal_a pain_n which_o they_o deserve_v for_o they_o without_o any_o necessity_n profit_n or_o interest_n of_o his_o part_n 2._o and_o conformable_a to_o this_o you_o must_v consider_v very_o well_o as_o you_o meditate_v any_o thing_n that_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v that_o he_o suffer_v it_o of_o his_o own_o free_a will_n &_o may_v have_v excuse_v it_o if_o he_o will_v and_o he_o will_v not_o but_o suffer_v so_o great_a pain_n and_o torment_n only_o for_o our_o good_a this_o be_v the_o cause_n which_o be_v of_o his_o part_n for_o which_o he_o suffer_v to_o wit_n his_o bounty_n his_o mercy_n his_o charity_n and_o love_n but_o of_o our_o part_n there_o be_v our_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o suffering_n and_o so_o when_o you_o meditate_v how_o they_o apprehend_v our_o saviour_n accuse_v he_o besett_n he_o spit_v upon_o he_o whip_v and_o scourge_v he_o with_o all_o the_o rest_n consider_v that_o thou_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o that_o and_o that_o they_o be_v thy_o sin_n that_o accuse_v he_o and_o abuse_v he_o and_o give_v testimony_n unto_o the_o process_n that_o he_o may_v be_v judge_v to_o death_n and_o put_v upon_o the_o cross_n §._o v._o of_o who_o the_o five_o circumstance_n be_v to_o consider_v of_o who_o he_o suffer_v that_o be_v who_o be_v they_o that_o inflict_v those_o pain_n upon_o he_o and_o in_o this_o we_o must_v 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 be_v promise_v so_o many_o year_n since_o who_o he_o bring_v out_o of_o captivity_n of_o egypt_n with_o so_o great_a miracle_n and_o prodigious_a wonder_n to_o who_o himself_o give_v the_o law_n write_v with_o his_o finger_n who_o he_o sustain_v forty_o year_n with_o bread_n from_o heaven_n to_o who_o he_o give_v the_o land_n of_o promise_n who_o he_o honour_v so_o much_o as_o to_o take_v flesh_n of_o their_o lineage_n and_o come_v in_o person_n to_o preach_v unto_o they_o and_o teach_v they_o 2._o the_o seçond_n that_o he_o suffer_v of_o they_o to_o who_o he_o have_v do_v so_o great_a good_a and_o give_v so_o many_o benefit_n raise_v their_o dead_a deliver_v their_o possess_a during_o their_o disease_a and_o converse_v amongst_o they_o with_o such_o love_n and_o benevolence_n 3._o the_o three_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o his_o cruel_a enemy_n who_o for_o the_o space_n of_o two_o year_n have_v seek_v his_o life_n and_o to_o dishonour_v he_o &_o will_v have_v drink_v his_o blood_n so_o great_a be_v their_o hatred_n and_o detestation_n towards_o he_o and_o to_o these_o he_o commit_v himself_o willing_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v use_v he_o at_o their_o pleasure_n 4._o the_o four_o that_o he_o suffer_v of_o most_o vile_a &_o base_a vassal_n of_o no_o account_n at_o all_o without_o any_o shame_n measure_n or_o any_o other_o respect_n for_o doubtless_o they_o who_o do_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 servant_n of_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o so_o we_o may_v think_v other_o be_v also_o who_o torment_v he_o but_o howsoever_o we_o see_v they_o be_v base_a fellow_n and_o slave_n very_o poor_a and_o abject_a for_o they_o part_v his_o poor_a garment_n in_o four_o part_n among_o they_o 5._o the_o five_o that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n suffer_v of_o all_o kind_n of_o people_n gentile_n and_o jew_n 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 honour_n receive_v he_o with_o palm_n and_o cry_v out_o that_o he_o be_v king_n of_o israël_n now_o they_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o all_o his_o miracle_n be_v devise_n &_o craft_n and_o that_o he_o pretend_v to_o usurp_v the_o kingdom_n and_o now_o they_o desire_v to_o have_v he_o crucify_v and_o that_o the_o thief_n and_o homicide_n barrabas_n shall_v be_v set_v free_a 6._o the_o sixth_o 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 his_o wing_n and_o do_v he_o so_o many_o good_a turn_n shall_v sell_v he_o &_o betray_v he_o to_o his_o enemy_n and_o another_o disciple_n who_o he_o have_v honour_v about_o the_o rest_n make_v he_o head_n of_o the_o church_n that_o he_o shall_v deny_v he_o public_o with_o a_o oath_n and_o that_o all_o the_o rest_n shall_v forsake_v he_o and_o run_v away_o leave_v he_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n and_o final_o he_o suffer_v even_o of_o his_o own_o mother_n for_o although_o the_o most_o bless_a virgin_n mary_n have_v no_o fault_n at_o all_o but_o very_o great_a merit_n in_o be_v present_a at_o the_o passion_n of_o her_o son_n yet_o with_o her_o presence_n she_o do_v increase_v great_o his_o grief_n &_o pain_n in_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v have_v suffer_v they_o double_a not_o to_o have_v see_v that_o which_o his_o mother_n suffer_v and_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v pass_v all_o this_o that_o our_o redemption_n may_v be_v more_o copious_a although_o so_o great_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

the_o rest_n of_o the_o bless_a spirit_n 4._o as_o he_o be_v man_n he_o be_v king_n and_o universal_a lord_n of_o all_o that_o be_v create_v because_o his_o eternal_a father_n have_v put_v all_o into_o his_o hand_n and_o all_o creature_n ought_v to_o obey_v he_o and_o be_v subject_a unto_o he_o and_o by_o right_n and_o authority_n he_o may_v do_v wrea_fw-mi they_o as_o it_o please_v he_o not_o only_o with_o natural_a but_o also_o supernatural_a thing_n that_o he_o impart_v all_o the_o good_a include_v in_o grace_n and_o glory_n to_o who_o he_o please_v and_o all_o the_o angel_n and_o sotile_n in_o heaven_n and_o they_o who_o be_v to_o go_v thither_o must_v come_v into_o glory_n by_o his_o help_a hand_n and_o by_o his_o merit_n and_o that_o his_o most_o holy_a humanity_n only_o be_v more_o worth_a and_o more_o esteem_v and_o belove_v of_o almighty_n god_n &_o have_v receive_v more_o riches_n and_o gift_n from_o god_n than_o all_o creature_n together_o with_o such_o and_o so_o great_a excess_n that_o there_o be_v no_o comparison_n 5._o that_o his_o holy_a body_n be_v form_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n of_o the_o pure_a blood_n of_o a_o virgin_n the_o most_o holy_a that_o ever_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v and_o therefore_o have_v great_a beauty_n and_o persection_n of_o nature_n then_o ever_o any_o humane_a creature_n have_v or_o shall_v have_v and_o also_o more_o deli●ate_a and_o tender_a then_o any_o other_o man_n and_o he_o have_v the_o complexion_n of_o his_o body_n more_o sensible_a and_o delicate_a than_o the_o flesh_n of_o a_o child_n of_o four_o or_o five_o year_n of_o age_n 6._o and_o that_o his_o soul_n be_v most_o holy_a from_o the_o instant_n of_o his_o conception_n be_v full_a of_o grace_n and_o charity_n and_o full_a of_o all_o virtue_n and_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o in_o so_o high_a a_o degree_n that_o it_o exceed_v without_o comparison_n the_o grace_n and_o virtue_n of_o all_o angel_n and_o man_n that_o ever_o be_v be_v or_o shall_v be_v and_o that_o not_o only_o for_o himself_o he_o have_v grace_n but_o also_o to_o communicate_v as_o head_n to_o the_o angel_n and_o man_n already_o create_v &_o infinite_a other_o who_o may_v be_v create_v for_o all_o the_o grace_n they_o have_v receive_v and_o shall_v receive_v hereafter_o all_o do_v receive_v it_o from_o the_o fullness_n and_o copious_a abundance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n 7._o and_o also_o from_o the_o instant_n of_o his_o conception_n that_o most_o holy_a soul_n of_o he_o be_v full_a of_o so_o marvellous_a science_n and_o wisdom_n that_o he_o know_v &_o can_v tell_v perfect_o the_o nature_n and_o essence_n of_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v be_v and_o be_v to_o come_v and_o the_o number_n and_o order_n of_o they_o all_o and_o every_o one_o in_o particular_a &_o distinct_o he_o know_v their_o property_n condition_n quality_n and_o inclination_n he_o know_v how_o many_o star_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o how_o every_o one_o be_v call_v and_o how_o big_a every_o one_o be_v and_o how_o many_o drop_n of_o water_n there_o be_v in_o the_o sea_n &_o how_o many_o sand_n he_o know_v and_o can_v tell_v all_o the_o thought_n and_o desire_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n good_a and_o bad_a as_o well_o those_o that_o now_o they_o have_v as_o those_o which_o they_o shall_v have_v for_o ever_o all_o these_o he_o see_v and_o know_v more_o clear_o and_o distinct_o than_o i_o can_v see_v that_o which_o i_o have_v before_o my_o eye_n 8._o and_o above_o all_o from_o the_o say_v instant_a of_o his_o conception_n his_o soul_n be_v full_a of_o glory_n for_o from_o that_o time_n he_o see_v most_o clear_o the_o divine_a essence_n of_o god_n and_o do_v enjoy_v it_o most_o perfect_o and_o all_o this_o glory_n and_o beauty_n this_o our_o lord_n will_v of_o his_o own_o proper_a will_n and_o desire_n have_v to_o lie_v hide_v and_o as_o it_o be_v keep_v there_o in_o the_o chief_a part_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o for_o 33_o year_n do_v defraud_v his_o most_o holy_a body_n of_o all_o this_o glory_n which_o natural_o be_v due_a unto_o it_o that_o thereby_o he_o may_v suffer_v labour_n and_o pain_n for_o us._n and_o that_o in_o the_o inferior_a part_n of_o his_o soul_n he_o may_v suffer_v sorrow_n grief_n and_o the_o like_a as_o he_o do_v very_o much_o &_o he_o will_v not_o use_v power_n and_o authority_n which_o he_o have_v
