find_v in_o your_o city_n and_o shall_v have_v joy_n without_o sadness_n or_o fear_n wherefore_o covet_v not_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o heathen_a for_o they_o be_v destructive_a to_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n but_o of_o your_o own_o abundance_n which_o you_o have_v do_v those_o thing_n by_o which_o you_o may_v attain_v unto_o joy_n and_o do_v not_o commit_v adultery_n nor_o touch_v any_o other_o

of_o their_o fruit_n a_o angel_n appear_v unto_o i_o and_o say_v unto_o i_o what_o be_v it_o that_o thou_o think_v upon_o thus_o long_o within_o thyself_o and_o i_o say_v unto_o he_o sir_n i_o think_v

see_v they_o this_o vine_n say_v he_o be_v fruitful_a but_o the_o elm_n be_v a_o tree_n without_o fruit._n nevertheless_o this_o vine_n unless_o it_o be_v set_v by_o this_o elm_n and_o support_v by_o it_o will_v not_o bear_v much_o fruit_n but_o lie_v along_o upon_o the_o ground_n will_v bear_v ill_a fruit_n because_o it_o do_v not_o hang_v upon_o the_o elm_n whereas_o now_o be_v support_v upon_o

reach_v out_o to_o the_o poor_a those_o thing_n which_o he_o want_v the_o poor_a man_n pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o rich_a and_o god_n grant_v unto_o the_o rich_a man_n all_o good_a thing_n because_o the_o poor_a man_n be_v rich_a in_o prayer_n and_o his_o request_n have_v great_a power_n with_o the_o lord_n then_o the_o rich_a man_n minister_v all_o thing_n to_o the_o poor_a because_o he_o perceive_v that_o he_o be_v hear_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o the_o more_o willing_o and_o without_o doubt_v afford_v he_o what_o he_o want_v and_o take_v care_n that_o nothing_o be_v lack_v to_o he_o and_o the_o poor_a man_n give_v thanks_o unto_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o rich_a because_o he_o do_v this_o work_n to_o he_o from_o the_o lord_n with_o man_n therefore_o the_o elm_n be_v not_o think_v to_o give_v any_o fruit_n and_o they_o know_v not_o neither_o understand_v that_o its_o company_n be_v add_v to_o the_o vine_n the_o vine_n bear_v a_o double_a increase_n both_o for_o its_o self_n and_o for_o the_o elm._n even_o so_o the_o poor_a pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o rich_a be_v hear_v by_o he_o and_o their_o riches_n be_v increase_v because_o they_o minister_v to_o the_o poor_a of_o their_o wealth_n they_o be_v therefore_o both_o make_v partaker_n of_o each_o other_o good_a work_n whosoever_o therefore_o shall_v do_v these_o thing_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v

sensible_a of_o this_o will_v be_v able_a to_o minister_v somewhat_o to_o other_o the_o three_o similitude_n as_o the_o green_a tree_n in_o the_o winter_n can_v be_v distinguish_v from_o the_o dry_a so_o neither_o can_v the_o righteous_a from_o the_o wicked_a in_o this_o present_a world_n again_o he_o show_v i_o many_o tree_n who_o leave_n be_v shed_v and_o which_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v

these_o tree_n be_v like_a unto_o the_o man_n who_o live_v in_o this_o present_a world_n i_o reply_v sir_n why_o be_v they_o like_v unto_o dry_a tree_n because_o say_v he_o neither_o the_o righteous_a nor_o unrighteous_a be_v know_v from_o one_o another_o but_o be_v all_o alike_o in_o this_o present_a world_n for_o this_o world_n be_v as_o the_o winter_n to_o the_o righteous_a man_n because_o they_o be_v not_o know_v but_o dwell_v among_o sinner_n as_o in_o the_o winter_n all_o the_o tree_n have_v lose_v their_o leave_n be_v like_o dry_a tree_n nor_o can_v it_o be_v say_v which_o be_v dry_a and_o which_o be_v green_a so_o in_o this_o present_a world_n neither_o the_o righteous_a nor_o wicked_a be_v discern_v from_o each_o other_o but_o they_o be_v all_o alike_o the_o four_o

he_o say_v unto_o i_o see_v thou_o these_o tree_n i_o answer_v sir_n i_o see_v they_o and_o some_o be_v dry_a and_o other_o full_a of_o leave_n these_o tree_n say_v he_o which_o be_v green_a be_v the_o righteous_a who_o shall_v possess_v the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o the_o world_n to_o come_v be_v the_o summer_n to_o the_o righteous_a but_o to_o sinner_n it_o be_v the_o winter_n when_o therefore_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v shine_v forth_o than_o they_o who_o serve_v god_n shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a and_o plain_a unto_o all_o for_o as_o in_o the_o summer_n the_o

in_o that_o world_n merry_a and_o joyful_a for_o the_o other_o nation_n kind_n of_o man_n namely_o wicked_a like_o the_o tree_n which_o thou_o see_v dry_a shall_v as_o such_o be_v find_v dry_a and_o without_o fruit_n in_o that_o other_o world_n and_o like_o dry_a wood_n shall_v be_v burn_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a that_o they_o have_v do_v evil_a in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o

have_v not_o acknowledge_v god_n their_o creator_n do_v thou_o therefore_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n that_o in_o the_o summer_n thy_o fruit_n may_v be_v know_v and_o keep_v thyself_o from_o much_o business_n and_o thou_o shall_v not_o offend_v for_o they_o that_o be_v involve_v in_o much_o business_n sin_n much_o because_o they_o be_v take_v up_o with_o their_o affair_n and_o neglect_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o how_o can_v a_o man_n that_o do_v not_o serve_v god_n ask_v any_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o receive_v it_o but_o they_o who_o serve_v he_o ask_v and_o receive_v what_o they_o
