sore_o detest_v augustine_n augustine_n that_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o fruition_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o we_o only_o ought_v to_o use_v &_o contrariwise_o we_o shall_v use_v those_o thing_n

ought_v it_o to_o be_v prefer_v in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o in_o this_o there_o need_v a_o singular_a diligence_n because_o it_o oftentimes_o happen_v that_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o false_o suppose_v that_o nothing_o be_v more_o excellent_a or_o dear_a to_o our_o mind_n than_o god_n from_o who_o nevertheless_o we_o be_v by_o little_a and_o little_o withdraw_v and_o pluck_v back_o by_o reason_n of_o to_o much_o desire_n and_o delight_v of_o reward_n or_o gift_n wherefore_o it_o afterward_o happen_v punishemente_n if_o we_o prefer_v other_o thing_n before_o god_n we_o incur_v into_o

howbeit_o i_o think_v it_o good_a this_o to_o be_v add_v that_o some_o judge_v that_o prodition_n &_o espial_n do_v not_o much_o differ_v one_o from_o another_o and_o that_o it_o may_v sometime_o
