vile_a before_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n but_o especial_o vile_a since_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n subject_a to_o vile_a disease_n and_o abomination_n and_o one_o thing_n more_o which_o i_o forget_v before_o and_o that_o be_v they_o be_v vile_a because_o subject_a to_o be_v abuse_v by_o wicked_a persecutor_n and_o by_o malicious_a tyrant_n for_o though_o a_o tyrant_n can_v hurt_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o saint_n yet_o he_o may_v torment_v the_o body_n and_o therefore_o in_o heb._n 11._o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o holy_a saint_n that_o they_o undergo_v cruel_a mock_n and_o scourge_n and_o

and_o therefore_o vile_a body_n because_o subject_a to_o be_v abuse_v and_o subject_a to_o all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n but_o especial_o vile_a in_o comparison_n of_o the_o precious_a soul_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o what_o their_o body_n shall_v be_v hereafter_o now_o let_v this_o meditation_n teach_v we_o these_o lesson_n 1._o 1._o let_v this_o epithet_n teach_v you_o a_o lesson_n of_o humility_n the_o body_n you_o carry_v about_o you_o be_v vile_a body_n let_v we_o not_o then_o be_v proud_a of_o they_o beza_n translate_v the_o word_n corpus_fw-la humilitatis_fw-la a_o body_n of_o

low_a esteem_n of_o they_o and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o body_n in_o scripture_n be_v compare_v to_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o mean_a and_o contemptible_a as_o to_o the_o grass_n of_o the_o

proud_a oh_o dust_n and_o ash_n what_o be_v thy_o handsome_a body_n but_o gild_a rottenness_n what_o be_v all_o your_o riches_n and_o honour_n but_o heap_n of_o dung_n and_o dust_n and_o god_n will_v short_o lay_v your_o honour_n in_o the_o dust_n every_o bird_n make_v her_o nest_n of_o that_o thou_o be_v make_v of_o every_o beast_n tread_v that_o under_o foot_n that_o thou_o be_v make_v of_o every_o creep_a thing_n dispose_v of_o that_o thou_o be_v make_v of_o every_o blast_n of_o wind_n scatter_v that_o which_o thou_o be_v make_v of_o and_o why_o then_o be_v thou_o proud_a oh_o dust_n and_o ash_n what_o be_v man_n but_o rottenness_n and_o corruption_n but_o worm_n meat_n i_o remember_v what_o i_o have_v once_o read_v in_o a_o manuscript_n concerning_o a_o stone_n that_o be_v present_v to_o alexander_n the_o great_a the_o nature_n of_o it_o be_v this_o that_o be_v put_v into_o one_o part_n of_o the_o balance_n it_o weigh_v down_o what_o ever_o be_v put_v in_o the_o other_o part_n of_o it_o but_o if_o a_o little_a dust_n be_v cast_v upon_o the_o stone_n than_o every_o thing_n weigh_v down_o the_o stone_n and_o he_o that_o bring_v the_o stone_n be_v demand_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o it_o he_o answer_v oh_o alexander_n thou_o be_v this_o stone_n thou_o while_o thou_o live_v do_v weigh_v down_o all_o that_o be_v against_o thou_o and_o tread_v down_o all_o before_o thou_o but_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o die_v and_o there_o be_v a_o little_a dust_n throw_v upon_o thou_o than_o every_o man_n will_v outweigh_v you_o and_o then_o you_o will_v be_v less_o than_o any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n remember_v you_o be_v but_o dust_n dust_n you_o be_v and_o to_o dust_v you_o must_v return_v oh_o therefore_o cast_v dust_n upon_o your_o beauty_n cast_v dust_n upon_o

lesson_n of_o mortification_n this_o vile_a body_n of_o we_o be_v subject_a to_o be_v abuse_v by_o the_o devil_n to_o vile_a abomination_n and_o therefore_o now_o let_v we_o go_v to_o jesus_n christ_n to_o get_v power_n to_o mortify_v and_o crucify_v this_o body_n of_o flesh_n this_o body_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v in_o we_o for_o we_o have_v a_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o
