beside_o what_o they_o hear_v perhaps_o out_o of_o the_o sermon_n or_o from_o the_o scripture_n read_v in_o the_o congregation_n out_o of_o custom_n and_o formality_n of_o the_o great_a mercy_n of_o

more_o out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o congregation_n or_o assembly_n of_o people_n for_o worship_n as_o when_o we_o be_v in_o they_o for_o we_o be_v long_o out_o than_o in_o we_o shall_v never_o

of_o that_o their_o love_n towards_o we_o so_o that_o reciprocal_o and_o mutual_o ourselves_o will_v love_v god_n and_o christ_n also_o and_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a rule_n according_a to_o those_o

of_o god_n and_o of_o heavenly_a thing_n for_o want_v of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o they_o it_o be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o seek_v the_o thing_n above_o for_o what_o one_o seek_v after_o he_o do_v usual_o talk_v of_o and_o inquire_v after_o and_o they_o do_v not_o set_v their_o affection_n on_o thing_n above_o but_o on_o thing_n on_o the_o earth_n indeed_o one_o reason_n why_o those_o in_o
