i_o have_v say_v to_o the_o lord_n thou_o be_v my_o god_n the_o which_o word_n although_o it_o seem_v almost_o common_a among_o all_o man_n yet_o few_o there_o be_v which_o can_v true_o say_v it_o

which_o want_v not_o the_o help_n of_o other_o creature_n far_o more_o imperfect_a than_o itself_o as_o philosopher_n and_o divine_n affirm_v because_o if_o one_o have_v not_o be_v the_o other_o have_v not_o be_v for_o confound_v part_n of_o that_o which_o be_v call_v universal_a and_o confound_v the_o whole_a the_o whole_a be_v confound_v all_o the_o part_n be_v confound_v all_o creature_n be_v part_n of_o one_o universal_a of_o the_o which_o god_n himself_o be_v no_o part_n but_o the_o beginning_n nothing_o depend_v upon_o it_o for_o god_n have_v get_v nothing_o by_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n neither_o shall_v he_o lose_v any_o thing_n if_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v bring_v to_o nought_o therefore_o god_n alone_o have_v no_o need_n of_o our_o good_n we_o ought_v therefore_o to_o take_v shame_n to_o account_v he_o for_o god_n which_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o we_o such_o be_v every_o creature_n furthermore_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o account_v for_o god_n that_o be_v for_o the_o chief_a good_a but_o that_o wherein_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a but_o in_o no_o creature_n be_v the_o chief_a good_a therefore_o we_o ought_v only_o to_o say_v unto_o the_o lord_n thou_o be_v my_o god_n but_o to_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n next_o unto_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o love_v those_o most_o which_o be_v most_o near_o unto_o god_n such_o be_v the_o
