of_o one_o master_n and_o pastor_n ¶_o for_o there_o be_v none_o end_v in_o make_v of_o book_n here_o he_o touch_v the_o infelicity_n of_o man_n nature_n write_v seem_v to_o imitate_v and_o follow_v

a_o weariness_n of_o the_o flesh_n this_o he_o say_v not_o of_o the_o weariness_n of_o the_o person_n that_o write_v but_o of_o his_o disciple_n or_o hearer_n as_o if_o he_o will_v say_v these_o man_n with_o their_o many_o write_n and_o book_n do_v nothing_o but_o cause_n man_n to_o weary_v themselves_o who_o yet_o they_o will_v seem_v to_o benefit_n always_o learning_n and_o never_o attain_v unto_o the_o truth_n this_o i_o say_v be_v the_o fruit_n of_o these_o book_n ▪_o to_o trouble_v man_n conscience_n and_o to_o weary_v that_o people_n therefore_o we_o must_v persist_v and_o abide_v in_o the_o opinion_n of_o one_o teacher_n follow_v we_o must_v cleave_v either_o to_o one_o or_o to_o a_o few_o which_o have_v the_o true_a form_n of_o doctrine_n other_o we_o must_v beware_v of_o which_o go_v about_o only_o to_o seem_v to_o bring_v some_o new_a device_n and_o to_o seem_v better_o learn_v than_o other_o as_o now_o many_o sectary_n and_o their_o like_v do_v well_o therefore_o do_v s._n james_n say_v be_v you_o not_o many_o master_n let_v we_o hear_v the_o end_n of_o all_o fear_v god_n and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n work_n that_o be_v this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o fear_v god_n and_o worship_n he_o and_o set_v he_o always_o before_o thine_o eye_n and_o so_o shall_v thou_o perform_v all_o i_o have_v write_v in_o this_o book_n for_o unless_o a_o man_n fear_v god_n he_o can_v accomplish_v none_o of_o these_o thing_n he_o have_v set_v forth_o the_o example_n of_o they_o which_o have_v live_v wise_o and_o notable_o without_o fear_n who_o when_o adversity_n and_o

give_v god_n thanks_n when_o they_o come_v not_o ¶_o for_o this_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o man_n that_o be_v belong_v to_o all_o man_n and_o be_v profitable_a for_o all_o man_n by_o other_o

thus_o zoilu_n at_o length_n be_v throw_v down_o alive_a from_o the_o top_n of_o a_o mountain_n but_o homer_n abide_v the_o prince_n of_o all_o poet_n still_o in_o despite_n of_o all_o the_o zoili_fw-la or_o of_o whosoever_o be_v more_o wicked_a than_o they_o thus_o all_o other_o good_a author_n especial_o of_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n by_o god_n power_n and_o appointment_n be_v likewise_o hitherto_o preserve_v ¶_o with_o every_o secret_a thing_n that_o be_v to_o say_v hypocrisy_n because_o these_o ape_n counterfeit_v a_o show_n of_o life_n and_o good_a doctrine_n so_o in_o the_o 25._o psalm_n also_o it_o be_v say_v i_o will_v not_o keep_v company_n with_o dissembler_n that_o be_v such_o as_o christ_n call_v hypocrite_n paul_n say_v they_o have_v a_o show_n of_o

wherewith_o they_o hide_v and_o cloak_v their_o work_n he_o speak_v not_o of_o the_o latter_a judgement_n but_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o general_a of_o all_o judgement_n either_o such_o as_o heretic_n be_v judge_v and_o put_v to_o death_n by_o or_o what_o so_o ever_o sort_n of_o wicked_a person_n all_o these_o thing_n have_v their_o judgement_n and_o time_n appoint_v
